This is a hands‑on role for someone who thrives in structured environments, takes ownership of financial accuracy, and can manage multi-entity, multi-location accounting workflows.

- Support budgeting and forecasting processes
- Provide financial analysis and data visualization for decision‑making

Process Improvement & Documentation

- Review and document existing accounting processes
- Identify inefficiencies and recommend improvements
- Standardize workflows across clients and systems

Client & Internal Coordination

- Communicate regularly with leadership on priorities and deliverables
- Support client‑facing communication when required




- Ensure alignment on reporting timelines and expectations

Must‑Have Experience & Skills

- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (XLOOKUP, INDEX/MATCH, Pivot Tables, Data Tables)
- Experience processing payroll using systems such as Gusto (or similar)

Nice‑to‑Haves

- Experience with NetSuite
- Familiarity with Paylocity or ADP

- Exposure to time‑tracking tools such as Clockify
- Background working in outsourced accounting firms or similar environments
