Mercury, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Head of Marketing - Accounting (M5)
Ancient documents from Mesopotamia show what is believed to be the first accounting records: notes on goods received and traded, leading to some of the earliest developments in counting and money. About a thousand years later (but still in the 4th millennium BC), the first accountants came on the scene, creating an early form of bookkeeping using clay tokens.
While some things stand the test of time, at Mercury, we're embarking on an ambitious journey to add innovative account software alongside our beloved banking* products, to simplify finances for founders and accountants alike. And we're looking for a Head of Marketing, Accounting, to lead the marketing efforts.
