Financial Reporting Specialist - Remote | Up to $100/hr

Mercor is hiring a Financial Reporting Specialist to review financial filings prepared in Workiva. The role verifies figures, disclosures, XBRL tagging, and cross-document completeness, and assesses whether changes meet SEC review or audit standards.

Responsibilities

Confirm a figure, tag, or disclosure in the filing is correct and traces back to its source, not just that it renders

Catch broken or stale links, mis-tagged XBRL elements, sign or period errors, and edits made outside the scope of the request

Judge completeness: when one number changes, ensure all affected statements, footnotes, and tags are updated

Distinguish "the document validates" from "this would survive SEC review or audit."

Verify that a request that should be refused (editing a locked section, overriding a signed-off control without support) is refused rather than forced through
