Accountant | Tampa/St. Petersburg, FL | Competitive Compensation + Full Benefits

Join a well-established, mission-driven organization in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area as an Accountant, and step into a role with genuine visibility, a collaborative team environment, and a real path for long-term career growth. The work is foundational and varied, spanning journal entries, reconciliations, sales tax preparation, and cross-functional coverage across AP and AR. The office environment is open and collaborative, and the culture is one where employees genuinely enjoy showing up — leadership is approachable, voices are heard, and the organization invests in its people through meaningful benefits including tuition reimbursement.

Growth here is real, with a visible path toward increasing responsibility and senior accounting roles over time. If you have a solid understanding of accounting fundamentals, are comfortable in Excel, and thrive in a team-oriented setting, this is a strong opportunity to plant roots somewhere that will invest in your future.
