About the role

  • Prepare and post journal entries in support of monthly close.
  • Maintain, reconcile, and analyze general ledger accounts.
  • Support AR and AP processes, including reconciliations and variance review.
  • Assist with month-end close schedules and supporting documentation.
  • Support internal and external audit requests with clear, well-organized workpapers.
  • Ensure accuracy, consistency, and auditability of accounting outputs.
  • Work with accounting exports and subledger data in G-Sheets and other cloud-based tools to clean, structure, and analyze information efficiently.
  • Use advanced spreadsheet techniques (G-Sheets preferred; Excel experience transferable) to automate reconciliations and recurring close tasks.
  • Build and maintain automated reports, templates, and dashboards that support close and operational visibility.
  • Leverage AI-assisted tools to identify anomalies and trends, improve data quality, reduce manual, repetitive accounting work.
  • Ensure any automation or AI-assisted workflow is documented, transparent, and maintainable by other team members.
  • Identify recurring pain points in close, reconciliations, or reporting and propose incremental process improvements or automation opportunities.
  • Partner with the Senior Accountant to implement approved changes in a controlled, practical way.

Requirements

  • 2–4 years of experience in accounting, reporting, or accounting-adjacent analysis (quality of experience matters more than exact tenure).
  • Direct experience supporting month-end close.
  • Strong understanding of debits, credits, and core accounting fundamentals (GAAP knowledge preferred).
  • Advanced spreadsheet skills (Google Sheets or Excel), with the ability to build structured logic, manipulate data confidently, and maintain clean models.
  • Strong analytical thinking and attention to detail; able to identify issues and address them proactively.
  • Comfortable working with large or messy data exports in a cloud-based environment.
  • Ability to work independently within a small team — manage priorities, move toward defined goals without daily direction, and take ownership of outcomes.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills; able to translate financial or data-driven outputs into understandable insights.
  • Practical, hands-on problem solver with strong judgment and a willingness to continuously improve processes.
  • Comfortable learning and adopting new tools, including AI-assisted workflows.
