Job description

About the role

Remi is seeking a hands-on Accounting Manager (Assistant Controller for the right candidate) to own the general ledger, accelerate our monthly close, and lead audit readiness for 2024-2025. You'll mentor and level-up G / L accountants, stand up a durable reconciliations and controls framework, and be a key partner in our ERP transition from QuickBooks Online.

You'll partner closely with our existing managers who run operational accounting (AP / AR, cash collections, treasury) and technical accounting. Your lane : close owner, G / L hygiene, audit leader, and process + systems maturation.

What you'll do

Close & G / L Ownership

  • Own the monthly close calendar end-to-end; drive a consistent 5-day close with zero critical post-close adjustments.
  • Build and enforce a reconciliations program (auto-roll schedules, documented procedures, review sign-offs) across cash, AR, AP, prepaid, fixed assets, accruals, deferrals, intercompany and consolidation.
  • Lead historical G / L cleanup (multi-year), including suspense clearing, account rationalization, and policy alignment (chart of accounts, mapping, and posting rules).
  • Implement flux analysis (P&L, BS, CF) with materiality thresholds and owner sign-offs.

Audit Readiness & Controls

  • Own the PBC list and be primary auditor liaison; deliverables on time, with tie-outs and narratives.
  • Coordinate with technical accounting lead on memos; operationalize conclusions into repeatable entries and controls.
  • People Leadership

  • Train and coach G / L and staff accountants (review workpapers, give targeted feedback, create skill ladders and SOPs).
  • Introduce QA review routines (tick-and-tie standards, template workpapers, naming conventions, evidence retention).
  • Cross-functional partnership

  • Work with Operations and Collections on AR aging integrity and cash application rules; ensure revenue / cost cut-off aligns to project milestones and partner remittances.
  • Work closely with technical accounting manager to implement schedules into the close process
  • Outcomes (2025 / 2026)

  • 5-day close by bringing external accounting functions in house within 2 months.
  • Clean external audit for FY2024 & FY2025 : no material weaknesses; limited management letter comments, all remediated within 90 days.
  • G / L remediation : eliminate legacy suspense / placeholder balances; all balance-sheet accounts reconciled monthly with owner and timestamped review.
  • What you've done

    Must-have

  • Bachelor's in Accounting / Finance; CPA strongly preferred .
  • 5+ years in accounting with increasing scope (public + private mix ideal).
  • Proven owner of a fast close and external audit liaison (Big 4 or top-tier firm interaction a plus).
  • Demonstrated success training and reviewing workpapers of staff / G / L accountants.
  • Deep GAAP knowledge (cut-off, accruals / deferrals, revenue / cost matching, balance-sheet hygiene).
  • Advanced Excel / Google Sheets (INDEX / XMATCH, SUMIFS, Pivot, error-handling); comfort with large data sets.
  • Nice-to-have

  • ERP implementation or migration experience (NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics, etc.).
  • Multi-entity / consolidation exposure; construction, projects, or %-of-completion / milestone billing environments.
  • Familiarity with QBO; experience building reconciliations automation
  • Benefits

  • Lunch stipend : $20 / day
  • Unlimited PTO
  • 401(k) : 5% company match
  • Health coverage : 100% paid medical; dental / vision plans
  • Parental leave : 100% paid
  • Cell phone credit : $100 / month
  • Why join Remi?

    You'll learn fast, ship real improvements, and see your work in the financials every month. If you're organized, curious, and motivated we'd love to meet you.
