About the Opportunity

We’re seeking an experienced, hands-on Accounting Manager to oversee bookkeeping and accounting across multiple businesses.

This role offers the opportunity to take ownership of financial operations and make a meaningful impact through accurate reporting, practical analysis, and better financial organization.

What You’ll Do

  • Oversee day-to-day bookkeeping and accounting across multiple businesses, maintaining accurate, separate records for each entity.
  • Manage general ledger activity, journal entries, account reconciliations, and month-end and year-end closing.
  • Oversee accounts payable and receivable, monitor outstanding balances, and coordinate payroll processing.
  • Reconcile bank and credit card accounts, resolve discrepancies, and monitor cash flow.
  • Prepare timely financial statements, including profit and loss reports, balance sheets, and cash flow reports.
  • Develop consolidated reports that give ownership a clear view of overall performance and individual business results.
  • Analyze revenue, expenses, and operating costs to identify financial concerns and opportunities for improvement.
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning with business leaders.
  • Maintain and improve accounting software, reporting tools, internal controls, and financial procedures.
  • Coordinate with outside accountants and tax professionals on tax preparation, reporting requirements, and year-end activities.
  • Explain financial results clearly and provide practical recommendations to ownership.

What We’re Looking For

  • At least two years of relevant accounting experience required; three to five years preferred.
  • Experience overseeing accounting for multiple businesses or entities strongly preferred.
  • Strong understanding of double-entry bookkeeping, general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and financial statement preparation.
  • Working knowledge of applicable accounting standards, including GAAP, and sound internal controls.
  • Proficiency with accounting software and Microsoft Excel, including financial analysis and reporting.
  • Ability to independently manage deadlines, investigate discrepancies, and improve financial organization.
  • Clear communication skills and the ability to explain financial information to people without an accounting background.
  • Strong attention to detail, sound judgment, and discretion with confidential information.
  • Accounting or finance degree preferred; equivalent relevant experience will be considered.
  • Experience supervising accounting staff or coordinating financial workflows is a plus.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Starting salary of $60,000–$80,000 annually, based on experience.
  • Health insurance.
  • Vision insurance.
  • 401(k) retirement plan.
  • Paid time off (PTO).
