Staff Accountant

About the Role

==================

We're hiring a Staff Accountant to keep our day-to-day finance operations running cleanly as we scale. You'll own bill processing, support the monthly close, and help track how we spend against budget. You'll report to the CFO and work closely with our Controller once that role is filled.

This is a hands-on role on a small and early-stage team. You'll see how the whole global finance function works, actively participate in scaling processes, and have the potential for growth with the company.

What You'll Do

==================

Bill processing

• Process vendor bills end to end: intake, coding, approval routing and payment runs in Ramp
• Set up and maintain vendor records, including W-9s and payment details
• Keep bill coding accurate and synced to Xero

Monthly close

• Support month-end close: reconciliations, accruals, prepaids and journal entries
• Help keep the close checklist on schedule
• Support the Controller (once hired) with close, audit prep and reporting

Budget and spend tracking

• Prepare a monthly spend vs. budget report by department and flag variances
• Help update budgets and forecasts with actuals, working from models the CFO owns
• Answer budget owners' questions on what they've spent

Finance administration

• Maintain finance files, policies and documentation
• Respond to vendor and employee questions on payments and expenses
• Help with ad hoc requests from the CFO, such as data pulls and schedules

Payroll support

• Processing and supporting benefit invoice reconciliation
• Filing and reporting for different state level employment actions

What You'll Bring

=====================

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance or a related field
• 2–4 years of experience in accounting, AP or FP&A, ideally at a growing company
• A solid grasp of US GAAP basics: accruals, prepaids and reconciliations
• Hands-on experience with a cloud accounting system such as Xero, QuickBooks Online or NetSuite
• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including lookups and pivot tables
• Attention to detail and a habit of catching errors before they spread
• Comfort working in a lean team where the job isn't always fully defined

Nice to Have:

-----------------

• Experience with Ramp or a similar spend management platform
• Exposure to multi-entity accounting or intercompany transactions
• Experience in energy, manufacturing or hardware
• Progress toward a CPA
