About the role

Our Mission:

Today, starting and running a business is more challenging than ever. Small businesses face intense competition, not only from large tech companies but also from “big box” retailers and private equity firms that are consolidating industries to dominate markets. These forces stifle free market competition, putting immense pressure on small businesses—those with fewer than 100 employees.

The economic consequences are profound: fewer people owning more, and many people, including the middle class, not owning much at all. At LiveSwitch, we believe ownership is synonymous with freedom. True empowerment doesn’t come from giving people things; it comes from enabling individuals to own something meaningful, like their own businesses.

LiveSwitch is dedicated to leveling the playing field. We develop the best technologies in the world to enable small businesses to thrive despite these tough conditions. Our products help small businesses save and make money, save time and help their customers.

Join us in our effort to empower small businesses and transform the economic landscape. Join our revolution to help people reclaim ownership and freedom.

LiveSwitch is led by Chairman Brian Hamilton. Hamilton is well-known for founding Sageworks, America's first fintech company, that was sold to Accel-KKR in 2018 and now operates as “Abrigo”.

LiveSwitch’s culture is core to how we operate and is responsible for our success. Our culture is built on individuals who harness personal attributes of self-sufficiency and an internal compass for unprecedented performance and the highest level of success.

What’s in it for you? For the right individual, working at LiveSwitch is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You will get a masterclass on building an organization while working alongside Brian Hamilton, one of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs. While any startup carries its own risk, Brian’s track record of success makes the proposition of joining LiveSwitch less risky than your typical startup.

  • Enter daily financial data, prepare accounts/financial statements, and document business transactions
  • Communicate with Company vendors including entering bills and credit card receipts

  • Assist in benefits administration for employees of the Company
