AboutThe Role
Please note:
This position is scheduled to start on October 1, 2026. The Staff Accountant supports full-cycle accounting across accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the general ledger. This is a hands‑on role for an early‑career accountant who wants broad exposure to the accounting function and the opportunity to grow into ownership of complete processes rather than remain focused on a single narrow function.
Day to day, the position works across customer invoicing and collections, vendor bills and disbursements, journal entries, account reconciliations, and the transactional work that drives an accurate and timely month‑end close.
The position reports to the Accounting Manager and partners across operations, sales, and delivery teams to resolve billing questions, research variances, and keep the accounting records clean. The role also supports an active accounting system conversion, offering meaningful exposure to process design and system implementation early in a career.
This role is well suited for an early‑career accountant with a strong accounting foundation and hands‑on accounts receivable experience who is eager to broaden their experience across the full accounting cycle. The ideal candidate brings critical thinking, attention to detail, resourcefulness, and initiative, along with the ability to learn new processes quickly and take on increasing responsibility as their experience grows.
Recording an entry is only part of the job. The Staff Accountant is expected to understand why a transaction occurred, assess whether the resulting balance makes sense, recognize when something looks wrong, investigate discrepancies, and catch errors in their own work.

- Document collection activity, payment commitments, and disputes, and provide periodic collections status summaries to the Accounting Manager.
- Research and resolve billing disputes by coordinating with project managers and account owners, and process approved credit memos and adjustments.
- Support the allowance for credit losses analysis with supporting aging and collectability detail.
- Process vendor invoices end to end: verify approvals, code to the correct general ledger account, cost center, and entity, and enter into the accounting system.
- Perform three‑way matching against purchase orders and receiving documentation where applicable.
