Rain Media: Controller

Hiring: Financial Controller

Company: Rain Media

Reports to: President

Status: Full-time

Location: Remote

Position Overview

Are You a Precision-Driven Controller Who Thrives in High-Growth Environments?

If you’re someone who understands the story behind the numbers, can bring order to financial chaos, and thrives in the details, this role is for you.

At Rain Media, we’re not just looking for someone to “do the books.” We need a Controller who owns our financial systems, ensures accuracy across our ledger, and can confidently run operational accounting for a fast-moving, performance-driven company. This is a role for someone who understands eCommerce cash flow, is fluent in accrual accounting, and thrives in a growth-focused environment.

If you have a sharp eye for detail, pride yourself on proactive cash management, and know your debits from your credits without hesitation, read on. But if managing multi-state sales tax, systematizing tech access, or running audits sounds overwhelming, this is not the role for you.

Who we are: Organics Ocean

We are a premium direct-to-consumer supplement brand helping people live healthier lives through science-backed, clean, and effective products.

We’re not a company where things stay the same. We test, we optimize, we innovate—and we want someone who thrives in that kind of high-accountability, fast-paced environment.

Why join our team?

High-growth eCommerce brand: Driven by innovation and fast execution, Organics Ocean has seen 350% year-over-year growth.

Ownership & Accountability: We trust our team members to take full ownership of their responsibilities. You are empowered to lead, execute, and improve without micromanagement. We value individuals who take initiative, hold themselves accountable, and drive meaningful results.

A team of high performers: We push boundaries, move fast, and get things done. The company is in a hockey stick growth phase. This is not a good fit for those who don’t want to grow.

The company is a place for innovation. Team roles and responsibilities are clear, and the passion of being a part of something bigger than one’s self is shared among everyone. The environment is casual, but the work is serious. Riding this wave of growth only works with A-Players on the team, and that is what everyone is, an A-Player.

Cultural Pillars:

• Accountability: Take full ownership of your responsibilities and their outcomes. You commit to seeing tasks through, accepting both successes and failures as your own, and continuously learning and improving along the way.
• Attention to Detail: We are fully focused on the task at hand. In eCommerce, every action has a ripple effect—one mistake can impact the entire process. By carefully attending to your work, you ensure that each detail contributes to the success of the whole.
• Honesty & Trust: We are transparent, even when it's difficult. Speaking up about hard truths, especially when mistakes are made, helps us address issues before they become bigger problems. As a company, we need to know the challenges in order to fix them. Avoiding the truth only allows issues to fester and harm the company in the long run.
• Innovation: We are continuously pushing the boundaries and exploring new ideas. We're not tied to the status quo—if you see an opportunity for improvement, speak up. We value and encourage fresh thinking to drive the company forward.
• Move Fast and Persevere: We push forward with speed and determination, even when things get tough. In the fast-paced world of e-commerce and startups, challenges are inevitable. Success comes from acting quickly, adapting, and staying resilient when obstacles arise. We don’t slow down when things get hard—we press through and keep moving forward.
