Who we are

We're building a prayer and meditation app. One that is authentically Christian and Catholic, while at the same time a resource for anyone looking to grow deeper in a relationship with God. We believe that people are hungry for peace, and that there is no surer way to find it than by learning to sit in silence with Christ: “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” (Mt 11:28). 

Our goal is to build something truly great. Something that combines the beauty of the Church’s spirituality with world-class product and content execution.

We launched the app in December of 2018 and have been blown away with the incredible growth & traction. Hallow has been downloaded over 15 million times with over 250,000 5-star reviews. We're blessed to be backed by some of the best mission-driven investors in the world and are excited to build out the team to help a lot more folks grow closer to God.

We are a startup. We move quickly and take big swings. We are a small and fast moving team and each person is responsible for making an impact. It is hard work, but also deeply meaningful. We’d be honored & humbled if you’d consider joining us. 

TL;DR: We're growing quickly and looking to bring on a detail-oriented Accounting Associate to help us support the best mission-driven startup in the world.

What You’ll Do

• Own the Accounts Payable Process: We’re expanding our accounting team and need someone to own our AP process. You will manage our accounting inbox and initiate payments through our AP tool (Ramp) and our online banking platform. You will run the process to make sure all our bills are paid on time, bank transactions are classified correctly, all vendor information is collected, prepaid expenses are booked appropriately, and ensuring expenses are properly approved.
• Own the Accounts Receivable Process: We’re growing our B2B business and that means we need strong ownership of our AR process. You will be in charge of drafting and sending invoices, applying cash receipts, reporting on aged receivables, and collaborating with the B2B team to ensure timely payment of invoices. 
• Support Month-End Close: You’ll be the closest to our cash, accrued expenses, and prepaid expenses and will support the preparation of these reconciliations. You will also support the finance team at month-end to ensure our expenses are recorded in the right period. 
• Assist with Process Improvement: At a startup, things are always changing. You’ll have the opportunity to suggest and implement process improvements across our entire finance function as our business grows. You’ll also be a core part of implementing changes to our finance tech stack.

• Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Everyday we hear amazing stories and we get the pleasure of working on something that’s impacting lives. One of our favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.” 
• Ownership: You’ll be the point person to make sure the day-to-day functions of AP and AR help keep the lights on at Hallow. 
• Growth: You’ll get to journey with a VC-backed Silicon Valley startup that is still growing extremely quickly. Every employee is a core team member who is expected to help build the company as a whole as we settle into a culture and continue to expand the team. 
• Flexibility: HQ will be in Chicago with the full team and would love to have everyone there. That being said, we are open to global candidates, but would like to maximize work overlap with the U.S. Central Time Zone.
• Comp: We will pay competitive market rates for this hourly position.

• Passion: First and foremost, we’re looking for someone excited and passionate about our mission. It makes it a lot more fun to actually care about what you’re working on! 
• Dependability and Adaptability: This role will start at an average of 15-20 hours per week, but may scale up to 30 hours per week at times depending on our month-end close and business cycle. While the work schedule is fairly flexible, ability to handle tight turn-arounds and specific deadlines will be important! There will also be opportunities to expand responsibility over time.
• Experience: 2 years of experience in AP, AR, or related accounting functions is a must! Bonus points if you’re familiar with some of our tools - Quickbooks Online, Hubspot, and Ramp. 
• Grit: A start-up is tough and we really care about what we’re doing. You'll be jumping into a role in a fast moving organization - perseverance and the ability to create progress independently will be critical. 

We are honored that you'd consider joining the team and look forward to connecting with you.

Best,

Alex at Hallow
