Senior Accountant

Title:
Senior Accountant (Confidential Nonprofit Organization)

Salary:
$70–$85k

Location & Schedule:
Needham, MA

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
This is a high-impact Senior Accountant role within a mission-driven nonprofit organization. The position is highly visible, partnering closely with the Finance Manager and CFO, and plays a critical role in restoring balance to the finance team after a recent separation. The organization offers a collaborative culture, modern systems, and long-term growth potential including succession planning into leadership. Initial on-site onboarding transitions to a hybrid schedule after the first four months.

Senior Accountant Key Responsibilities:

• Own core aspects of month-end close including reconciliations, journal entries, payroll entries, and variance analysis

• Manage nonprofit and grant accounting, ensuring accuracy and compliance for restricted funds

• Prepare detailed financial reporting and perform investigative accounting to support audits and leadership requests

• Support ERP system enhancements and accounting process improvements

• Collaborate closely with the Finance Manager, CFO, and staff accountants to maintain a balanced and high-performing finance function

Senior Accountant Qualifications:

• Proven nonprofit accounting experience with grant or fund accounting exposure

• Strong month-end close experience in a multi-entity or complex environment

• Advanced Excel skills required

• ERP experience preferred (Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central a plus)

• Detail-oriented, collaborative, and eager to grow within a mission-focused organization
