WHO ARE WE?
Strategic Bank is not your typical bank. We are a digital private bank that brings back the old virtues of traditional banking: safe, transparent and relationship-oriented.
Our operations have grown a lot in the past year, and it’s time to bring our accounting in-house.
That’s why we need to hire a rockstar accountant who is well-versed in Puerto Rico and US taxes for a bank and who recognizes life doesn’t come with an instruction manual.
We’re a small team, and everyone wears a lot of hats. In your case, you will not only be keeping the books and tax filings, but you’ll also be involved with some back-office operations, designing, building, and documenting systems and regulatory reporting.
In this role, you’ll have a significant amount of autonomy and the chance to be a part of a bank that puts the client first. The way banking should be done.
