Position Overview
The Staff Accountant is a critical role on our accounting team that is responsible for the day to day accounting functions and maintaining the financial backbone that powers our business. This role is laser-focused on accuracy, speed, and controls — ensuring every dollar is tracked, reconciled, and reported with precision.
You’ll oversee the financial lifecycle from commissions invoicing and reconciliations, to AP / AR, payroll support, credit cards, cash management, and assist the accounting manager in month-end close. Your mission? To keep our numbers clean, our books audit-ready, ensure the timeliness of incoming and outgoing payments, and our operations running with confidence.
This isn’t just about keeping the books balanced — it’s about building systems and processes that provide financial clarity to fuel predictable growth. If you thrive in fast-paced high growth environments, love turning financial chaos into order, and geek out about spreadsheets the way most people geek out about Netflix, this role is for you.
You SHOULD Apply If You :
- Want to work at a company that doesn’t look at the accounting team as just an admin function, but instead as individuals that power growth through financial reporting
- Have mastered advanced Excel and Google Sheets (XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, pivots, data validation, versioning)
- Have in depth experience working with QuickBooks online, and know that system like the back of your hand
- Love reconciling numbers and can trace transactions from sales → invoice → payment without breaking a sweat
- Understand commissions and variable comp structures (base vs variable, proration, retroactivity, exceptions)
- Get energy from delivering on tight deadlines and meeting SLAs with clean documentation
- Are detail-obsessed, organized, and known for catching the small things others miss
- Enjoy creating and updating SOPs that keep financial processes consistent
- Communicate clearly and proactively escalate issues before they become problems
- Thrive in a high-performance culture where accuracy and accountability matter
