About the role

This is a hands-on, close-cycle role with clear monthly deliverables, and a path toward work in reconciliations, tax and controls.

What you'll do

  • Cash application and AR
    • Apply customer payments (checks, ACH, wires, card) against open invoices
    • Clear unapplied cash, short-pays and overpayments, working with our credit team
    • Produce AR aging and unapplied-cash reporting for management and credit
  • Bank reconciliations
    • Reconcile all bank accounts monthly and investigate reconciling items promptly
    • Flag unusual or unauthorized activity right away
  • Corporate card program (Ramp)
    • Reconcile Ramp monthly and review transaction coding
    • Manage Ramp access and maintenance
  • Fixed assets
    • Maintain the fixed asset register: additions, depreciation, disposals and the monthly roll-forward
  • Compliance
    • Manage certificates of insurance (COIs)
    • Prepare sales tax workpapers for the senior accountant's filings
  • Month-end close
    • Deliver your reconciliations and schedules on the close calendar and support audit requests
    • Assist with Journal Entries

What you'll bring

  • Bachelor's degree in accounting (Preferred)
  • 2–4 years of general accounting experience, including account reconciliations
  • Solid understanding of GAAP and the month-end close
  • Experience with an ERP or accounting system such as NetSuite or QuickBooks Online
  • Reliability on deadlines and clear, timely communication when something is off

Nice to have

  • NetSuite experience
  • Construction or contractor accounting experience
  • Multi-state sales tax exposure
  • Ramp or another corporate card platform

What success looks like

  • Bank reconciliations complete within 5 business days of month-end
  • Unapplied cash kept current and aging down
  • Ramp transactions coded and reconciled by close
  • Fixed asset roll-forward ties to the general ledger every month
  • COIs current, with gaps flagged before they become a problem
