The Drivers Cooperative is hiring a Finance Manager to provide daily financial management to meet the needs of our business.
The Drivers Cooperative
We are a driver-owned ride-hailing and transportation cooperative in New York City. Our driver-members make more on each trip, profits go back to drivers, and drivers have democratic control over the decisions that affect their lives. We have been featured in The New York Times, AOC, NPR, Fast Company, and many other outlets and the United Federation of Worker Cooperatives has named us the largest worker cooperative in the country. We currently deliver thousands of trips every month for government and business clients, including Access-a-Ride and medical transportation, and plan to soon grow our B2C vertical
Role
The Finance Manager will lead and coordinate our accounting and financial reporting to meet the strategic goals of the cooperative to improve the lives of New York City’s for-hire vehicle drivers. This will include a combination of recurring operational tasks such as tracking payables and receivables, processing payments, invoicing, financial modeling and developing projections, and updating budgets, as well as working with the broader team to ideate and execute visionary projects that integrate cutting-edge fintech with cooperative economics to help our members achieve financial security and build wealth.
We are looking for a versatile, experienced, creative finance professional ready to take on the challenge of building the kind of company the world and our members need. Unlike a traditional company, we are 100% owned by our key stakeholders: drivers. While your work will have a specialized focus on finance and much of your work will be carried out individually, you will engage directly with drivers who play an active role in the cooperative through meetings, committees, and elected leadership positions, as well as through processing driver payments and developing new tools to help drivers build community wealth.
Location
This role is based in New York City.
