  • Assist with preparation of federal, state, and grant-related financial reports
  • Coordinate and assist with the annual independent financial audit and preparation of audit schedules
  • Assist in the preparation of IRS Form 990 and other regulatory filings
  • Develop, implement, and maintain strong internal controls and accounting procedures
  • Review and approve journal entries, account reconciliations, and financial transactions
  • Supervise and mentor staff, including assigning work, reviewing performance, and providing training
  • Collaborate with department managers to provide financial guidance and budget support
  • Leverage AI technology and tools to identify opportunities to improve accounting processes, enhance data accuracy, automate routine tasks, and increase operational efficiency
  • Ensure compliance with organizational policies, grant agreements, and applicable federal and state regulations
  • Perform other duties as assigned
What We are Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance and at least five years of progressive accounting experience; an equivalent combination of education and experience may be considered
  • Experience with annual audits and financial statement preparation; CPA certification preferred
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP principles
  • Demonstrated understanding of fund accounting, restricted funds, grants, and donor reporting
  • Demonstrated proficiency in computer systems, Microsoft Excel, accounting software, and financial reporting and budgeting tools
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Strong supervisory, coaching, and team-building skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong interpersonal skills, along with the ability to interact effectively with a diverse constituent population
  • Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines
  • Ability to maintain confidentiality and exercise sound judgment
  • Experience using Sage Intacct strongly preferred
What We Offer
  • Competitive salary + incentive bonuses
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Employee discounts
  • Career growth and advancement opportunities
  • Ongoing training and development
