Description

What's Bench? Check us out in Medium, Betakit, Financial Post, our Instagram, and our Life at Bench Blog.

We acknowledge that Bench headquarters is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh _(Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Businesses need to understand their financial performance, but for many smaller ones, this means a trade-off between managing their books and running their businesses.

Our mission is to help every business owner thrive, by providing financial insight and peace of mind in one seamless platform.

From creatives to chiropractors, Bench helps thousands of small business owners and entrepreneurs master their financial lives.

Because understanding your finances should be three things:
simple, effortless, and affordable.

We're growing fast, and we're looking for exceptional people to join us on this incredible journey. Check out our culture guide to learn more about what it's like to work at Bench and read more about our business here

What does the Business Systems department look like?

At Bench we're aiming to make a profound difference in the lives of our customers by making entrepreneurship more accessible.

We are doing this by delivering disruptively affordable and simple accounting services for small businesses in the US - where 80% of business owners today either do not do any bookkeeping; or, struggle to do it themselves.

Demonstrated ability to build efficient Lightning Flows for automation
Solid understanding of the Salesforce data model, permissions, profiles, and sharing rules

A genuine passion for helping people and building systems in Salesforce that create outstanding internal user experiences
