Alvies is looking for a highly motivated key contributor to assist with finance and operations for our fast-growing retail business. Maybe it’s you!

The Finance & Operations Assistant position will handle a variety of responsibilities, including the numbers (bookkeeping, financial reporting/forecasting, etc.) and the operations (relationship management, inventory and packing, etc.). Hence the clever title.

Reporting directly to the CEO, the Finance & Operations Assistant will use knowledge of our products and our business, flexibility (mental not physical, although physical can’t hurt), and nearly unlimited amounts of positive energy and can-do spirit to help our small team execute in a number of high-impact areas. And of course the best-of-the-best, Maverick-from-Top-Gun candidates will also have a passion for boots, flip-flops and beautiful Austin, Texas.

WHO YOU ARE

Our ideal candidate will have:

2–3 years of experience in finance and operations, preferably in the ecommerce industry; some project management experience is a plus

College Degree

A head for numbers and heart for boots/flops

Strong knowledge of Quickbooks and Microsoft Office

Strong understanding of how to manage ecommerce finance, inventory, and accounting

The ability to wear a lot of different hats throughout the day (both metaphorically and literally)

Customer service experience and a focus on wowing customers with every interaction

Strong attention to detail

Strong affinity for and understanding of the Alvies brand, story, and mission

A friendly demeanor and positive attitude

WHAT YOU’LL DO

You’ll assist the company in a wide variety of areas, with one day never looking like another. If you enjoy boring, monotonous work with boring, monotonous people, this is probably not the gig for you. But your specific duties will definitely include:

Financial Management

Bookkeeping

Accounting

Cashflow reporting

Financial reporting & forecasting

Prep for year-end and tax filings

Inventory management & tracking

Partner relationship management

Local product pickup and delivery
