Full Time Remote Accounting Jobs in Illinois (NOW HIRING)

Remote | Full-Time | $90K-$120K Total Compensation

Value Fusion is hiring a Senior Accounting Manager to lead accounting delivery across our client accounting services practice. We serve ABA therapy businesses exclusively, a fast-growing, fragmented industry where clean financials and reliable reporting directly impact our clients' ability to grow and make good decisions.

You'll own the quality, timeliness, and efficiency of accounting work product across our client portfolio, managing a blended team of onshore and offshore accountants and building the systems and processes that let us scale. Our advisory function is handled separately by industry specialists, so this role is focused entirely on delivery: making sure every close is accurate, every engagement runs smoothly, and the team gets better every month.

This is a building role, not a maintenance role. We're early enough that you'll shape how the operation works, and established enough that you'll have real clients, real revenue, and a team to lead from day one. As the practice grows, this role grows with it.

• Own the monthly close process across all client engagements, setting and maintaining standards for accuracy, completeness, and timeliness
• Manage and develop a blended team of onshore and offshore accountants/bookkeepers (currently 4, scaling to +7 as the portfolio grows)
• Build and refine standard operating procedures for bookkeeping, reconciliation, month-end close, year-end prep, and client onboarding
• Review work product across the portfolio and coach the team on quality, efficiency, and professional development
• Lead accounting operations for new client onboarding: cleanup, migration, QBO setup, chart of accounts standardization
• Oversee year-end financial statement preparation and coordinate tax prep handoffs
• Identify and eliminate bottlenecks across tools, workflows, and team structure
• Track and report on delivery metrics: close timelines, error rates, team capacity, and process maturity

Required:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance (or equivalent)
• 5+ years in public accounting or client accounting services, with at least 2 years managing staff in a multi-client environment
• Direct experience in a CAS, outsourced accounting, or firm-based client services practice
• Track record building or improving accounting delivery workflows at scale
• Strong experience standardizing messy books into reliable, audit-ready financials
• Experience managing offshore team members
• Advanced proficiency in QuickBooks Online and Excel

Preferred:

• CPA or EA designation
• Double/Keeper (or similar PMS) experience
• Tax preparation experience
• Healthcare or ABA industry experience (training provided)

• First 30 days: You've assessed the current state of every client engagement, identified the biggest quality and efficiency gaps, and started building the SOPs that will become the backbone of our delivery operation.
• First 90 days: The team is executing against documented standards. Monthly closes are consistently on time and accurate. You've onboarded at least one new client without it creating chaos.
• First 6 months: You've built a scalable delivery operation. The team has grown, processes are mature, and you can confidently absorb new clients without sacrificing quality.

• $90K-$120K total compensation (base salary + performance bonus tied to delivery quality and operational metrics)
• Fully remote with flexible hours
• Direct leadership role with clear growth path as the practice scales
