Accounting Director

Ready to lead accounting operations for one of the nation’s most respected nonprofits? This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to drive process improvements, automation, and financial excellence while managing a talented accounting team.


Salary: $110,000-$130,000 base + discretionary bonus up to 10%

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Play a key role in modernizing accounting operations through automation, AI, and process improvements

    • Join a nationally recognized nonprofit organization with a strong reputation and mission-driven culture

    Competitive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, generous PTO, student loan repayment assistance, and a 403(b) plan with company match

    • Work for an organization recognized as one of the best nonprofits to work for, offering strong professional development opportunities

    • Quarterly travel only, providing valuable team and leadership interaction without extensive travel requirements

    • Stable organization with a long-standing national presence and strong leadership team

Key Responsibilities for the Accounting Director:

  • Own the month-end close and financial reporting process

    • Oversee general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and accounting operations

    • Lead process improvement, automation, and internal control initiatives

    • Research and address technical accounting matters and compliance requirements

    • Manage audits and support financial reporting accuracy and integrity

    • Lead, mentor, and develop a team of accounting professionals

Qualifications for the Accounting Director:

  • Progressive accounting leadership experience with strong general ledger expertise

    • Prior experience managing and developing accounting teams

    • Bachelor’s degree in accounting, Finance, or related field

    • CPA preferred; nonprofit accounting and Net Suite experience are highly desirable
