Remote | Accounting - General Ledger & Team Leadership
Lead the close and raise the standard of the team around you.
Own accounting quality across multiple entities, review the work of others, and become the trusted operational partner to US finance leadership.
This is not a task-execution role. You will be expected to own outcomes, exercise judgment, improve how the work gets done, and communicate directly with senior stakeholders.
About MAVI
MAVI is an invite-only network connecting high-performing finance and accounting professionals with fast-growing US companies. Members are assessed for technical capability, communication, ownership, and leadership potential. Through MAVI, you work directly with finance leaders, own meaningful outcomes, and build a track record that can lead to increasingly senior opportunities.
What you'll own
- Lead the close calendar, assign ownership, review outputs, and resolve issues before reporting deadlines.
- Review journal entries, reconciliations, consolidations, and financial statements for accuracy and completeness.
- Own US GAAP accounting application across routine and judgment-heavy transactions.
- Coach accountants, improve review standards, and create repeatable close and control playbooks.
- Coordinate audit, tax, payroll, AP, AR, and external-service-provider dependencies.
- Present close results, risks, and material variances to controllers, CFOs, or client leaders.
What makes you a fit
- 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including close leadership or review responsibility.
- Hands-on US GAAP experience supporting US entities or clients is required.
- Strong command of accruals,
prepaids, fixed assets, intercompany accounting, reconciliations, and financial-statement review.
- Experience mentoring or reviewing the work of accountants, whether through direct or informal leadership.
- Experience in a multi-entity, multi-client, or fast-growth environment.
- Confident communication, sound judgment, and the ability to operate with limited oversight.
The seniority bar
- You have moved beyond preparing the work and are accountable for the quality, completeness, and timeliness of the final output.
- You can review others’ work, coach performance, and raise the operating standard without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
- You make sound decisions with incomplete information and escalate with a recommendation—not just a problem statement.
- You are comfortable leading direct conversations with US Controllers, CFOs, executives, auditors, or business leaders.
What success looks like
- The close becomes faster, more predictable, and less dependent on last-minute escalation.
- Review quality improves and repeat errors decline across the team.
- Leadership trusts the reported results and understands unresolved risks.
