What are the responsibilities and job description for the Accounting Manager position at Repertoire Immune Medicines?
Accounting Manager
Company Overview
Repertoire Immune Medicines is a biotechnology company working to unlock and direct the remarkable power of the human immune system to treat cancer and autoimmune disease. The company was founded on the belief that understanding the repertoire of T cell receptor (TCR)-antigen immune synapses that maintain health and drive disease represents one of the greatest opportunities for innovation in medical science. Repertoire scientists created and developed the DECODETM platform, which allows in-depth characterization of TCR-antigen pairs, and the ability to deploy this information in the form of novel targeted immune medicines to fundamentally reprogram the immune system to kill tumors or induce immune homeostasis.
From its sites in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Zurich, Switzerland, Repertoire’s team is advancing a pipeline of DECODE-enabled immune medicines. For cancer, we are developing a pipeline of TCR bispecifics molecules for treatment of multiple cancer types. In addition, we are developing a pipeline of mRNA tolerizing vaccines for treatment of autoimmune diseases.
Repertoire was founded by Flagship Pioneering and is supported by a strong investor base. In addition, the company recently entered a strategic partnership with Bristol Myers Squibb to develop tolerizing vaccines for up to three autoimmune diseases.
Role Overview
We are looking for a highly motivated and skilled accounting professional to be part of a dynamic Finance Team. Reporting to the Corporate Controller, the Accounting Manager will lead day-to-day operations and play a key role in completing the month-end financial close process, financial reporting, and internal process improvements. This individual will serve as a finance business partner to other colleagues, cross-functionally, on accounting and purchase order matters. We are also seeking a colleague to help build and invest in our collaborative culture, coming into the office minimally 2 to 3 days a week.
