Accountant Financial Manager information

What are Accountant Financial Managers?

Accountant Financial Managers are professionals responsible for overseeing financial operations, preparing financial statements, and ensuring the accuracy and compliance of financial records within an organization. They combine accounting expertise with managerial skills to analyze financial data, develop budgets, and support strategic decision-making. These professionals often supervise accounting teams, manage audits, and implement financial controls to help organizations achieve their financial goals.

How do Accountant Financial Managers typically collaborate with other departments to support organizational goals?

Accountant Financial Managers work closely with various departments such as operations, sales, and executive leadership to ensure financial strategies align with business objectives. They often coordinate budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting processes by gathering input from department heads and providing insights for decision-making. Effective communication and teamwork are essential, as these professionals must translate complex financial data into actionable recommendations for non-financial colleagues. This collaboration helps drive efficiency, maintain compliance, and support the overall growth of the organization.

While both roles require strong financial knowledge and certifications like CPA, accountants focus on recording, reporting, and compliance tasks. Financial managers oversee broader financial strategies, planning, and decision-making within organizations. The roles often overlap but differ mainly in scope and responsibilities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Accountant Financial Manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Accountant Financial Manager, you need strong analytical skills, a solid understanding of financial principles, and a degree in accounting or finance—often supported by certifications like CPA or CMA. Proficiency in accounting software (e.g., QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle) and advanced Excel skills are typically required for managing financial data and reporting. Attention to detail, problem-solving, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for interpreting financial information and collaborating with stakeholders. These skills and qualifications are vital for ensuring accurate financial management, regulatory compliance, and strategic decision-making within an organization.

Job description

Description
Surgo Health is a Public Benefit Corporation building the world’s most comprehensive and insightful AI-powered data platform that reveals the why behind people’s behaviors. We uncover the unseen drivers of health - people’s beliefs, barriers, and behaviors - and transform that intelligence into scalable products that enable healthcare organizations to drive impact, reduce costs, and advance inclusion. From improving clinical trial design to optimizing care delivery and public health strategies, our solutions help decision-makers act on what truly shapes health outcomes. By revealing the human side of healthcare, we’re making it more personal, precise, and effective - for everyone.

We are looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to support our growing organization with accounting operations and financial analysis. Reporting to the CFO, you will be the financial backbone of our operations, responsible for the full spectrum of accounting operations: day-to-day bookkeeping, month-end close, financial reporting, budget development, and variance analysis. We are looking for a detail-oriented, proactive, and analytical team member who thrives on accuracy and enjoys solving complex financial challenges. You've built strong accounting skills and are now looking to work in a fast-paced, mission-driven startup where your financial expertise drives real impact.
The ideal candidate will be responsible for using their analytical mindset to analyze and interpret financial data, then relating it to potential business trends and issues. This candidate will feel comfortable using insights they have discovered to communicate important themes and discoveries to company leadership.

What you’ll achieve:
•       Manage daily accounting operations in QuickBooks Pro; including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and general ledger maintenance; coordinating with and overseeing our outsourced accounting team to ensure accuracy, timeliness, and GAAP compliance
•       Lead month-end close and own payroll administration across geographies, ensuring timely, accurate processing in compliance with local employment, tax, and statutory requirements
•       Own project accounting across multiple grants and contracts: track budgets, monitor burn rates, and ensure all expenditures are reported in compliance with funder requirements
•       Partner with the CFO to develop financial reports, dashboards, and analyses; delivering clear, decision-ready insights that inform strategic priorities
•       Build and maintain the annual budget and rolling forecasts, updating projections monthly to reflect current business conditions and surfacing risks and opportunities to leadership early
•       Conduct budget-to-actual variance analysis and interpret trends in key performance indicators; translate findings into concise financial narratives and proactively communicate business issues to management
•       Take full ownership of financial reporting; routine and ad-hoc; ensuring information is accurate, well-organized, and delivered when leadership needs it
•       Identify and implement improvements to financial systems and processes across Bill.com, QuickBooks, and other tools, driving greater efficiency, accuracy, and internal controls

About you:
•       You hold a Bachelors degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, and bring 3+ years of hands-on experience as an Accountant or Financial Analyst
•       You are highly proficient in QuickBooks Pro and can take full ownership of day-to-day accounting operations; AP, AR, general ledger, and month-end/year-end close; without needing hand-holding
•       You have a firm grasp of GAAP and maintain clean, audit-ready books as a matter of professional standard
•       You have strong experience with project accounting; tracking budgets, burn rates, and financial compliance across multiple contracts simultaneously
•       You are an Excel power user: comfortable building financial models, variance analyses, and dashboards from scratch, and fluent in pivot tables, complex formulas, and data visualization
•       You have working knowledge of Bill.com or similar platforms for payment processing and vendor management
•       Your attention to detail is genuinely exceptional; you catch errors others miss, and you take personal ownership of the accuracy of everything that leaves your desk
•       You are proactive, well-organized, and calm under deadline pressure; you manage competing priorities without dropping the ball 
•       You communicate clearly and confidently with both finance and non-finance stakeholders; able to translate numbers into plain-language insights that drive better decisions
•       You have worked in a healthtech, digital health, or software environment and understand the pace and ambiguity that comes with a mission-driven, growth-stage company
Location:  Headquartered in Washington, DC. This role is based in DC with 2 days/week in office.
