This role is focused on owning the day-to-day accounting operations and ensuring a disciplined, accurate, and timely month-end close process within a finance and advisory environment. You will be responsible for maintaining clean financial records, supporting reconciliations, and producing reliable reporting that directly informs client decision-making. The position is highly execution-driven, requiring strong attention to detail and consistency in delivering accounting outputs on schedule. You will work closely with US-based stakeholders in a fully remote setup, where clear communication and responsiveness are essential. The environment is fast-paced and structured around deadlines, particularly month-end close cycles. Your work will directly contribute to financial accuracy, compliance readiness, and trusted client reporting.

Accountabilities:
  • Own day-to-day bookkeeping activities including AP/AR processing, journal entries, expense categorization, and general ledger maintenance

  • Maintain accurate and audit-ready financial records with complete supporting documentation
  • Lead or support month-end close activities including accruals, checklists, reconciliations, and close deliverables

  • Ensure consistent execution of weekly and month-end accounting cycles with strict adherence to deadlines
  • Improve accounting processes, templates, and controls to enhance efficiency and reduce errors
  • Communicate clearly with internal and external stakeholders regarding status updates, issues, and financial progress
Requirements:
  • 3–7+ years of experience in bookkeeping, accounting, or controller-level responsibilities
  • Strong experience in reconciliations, month-end close processes, and financial reporting
  • High attention to detail with strong ownership and follow-through on tasks
  • Ability to work within structured processes and consistently meet deadlines
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
  • Comfortable working in a remote, distributed, and US-facing work environment
  • Strong proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets for reporting and reconciliations
  • Experience with multi-entity accounting or finance operations is a plus
  • Familiarity with US accounting workflows, tax-adjacent processes, or advisory firms is a bonus
Benefits:
  • Fully remote contractor role
  • Competitive USD-based compensation aligned with experience
  • 20 days PTO plus US public holidays
  • Exposure to US accounting, tax workflows, and client-facing finance operations
  • Opportunity to work with founders, CEOs, and CFO-level stakeholders
