Job description

Staff Accountant

Salary : $75,000 - $85,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out :

  • High-visibility Staff Accountant position with a growing, well-established financial services organization
  • Opportunity to work directly with senior accountants and finance leaders on complex projects and reporting initiatives
  • Clear promotion pathways into senior accounting, financial reporting, or analysis roles
  • Collaborative environment where the Staff Accountant is a true partner to operations, compliance, and client teams
  • Competitive benefits package with strong emphasis on professional development (CPA support, training, mentorship)
  • Balanced work schedule with opportunities for career advancement as the company continues to expand

Key Responsibilities for the Staff Accountant :

  • Assist with month-end close, including journal entries, reconciliations, and variance analysis
  • Prepare financial statements and supporting schedules in compliance with GAAP and company policies
  • Support external audits by maintaining accurate records and providing necessary documentation
  • Partner with operations and client service teams to ensure accuracy in revenue recognition and expense reporting
  • Maintain and improve internal controls, accounting policies, and financial processes
  • Provide ad hoc reporting and analysis to support leadership decisions
  • The Staff Accountant will play a critical role in ensuring the accuracy and integrity of financial information across the organization

    • Qualifications for the Staff Accountant :

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA track preferred
  • 2-4 years of accounting experience, ideally in financial services, public accounting, or a similar fast-paced environment
  • Strong understanding of US GAAP and internal controls
  • Proficiency in Excel and experience with ERP / accounting software
  • Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across teams
  • A successful Staff Accountant will be analytical, motivated, and eager to take ownership of their work while growing within the company

    • This is an exciting opportunity for a hands-on Staff Accountant ready to step into a visible, high-impact role at a financial services firm that values initiative, accuracy, and professional growth.
