Job description

Description
Who We Are

At Mission Edge, our mission is to help nonprofits and small businesses maximize their social impact. By ensuring our nonprofit and small business clients’ financial health, our virtual Client Accountants provide tailored support from transactions to projections. Your strength as a virtual Mission Edge Client Accountant will allow you to provide operational support that helps our clients scale, making a real and lasting impact on the community while achieving their mission.
Recently recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in San Diego and Southern California, Mission Edge is looking for like-minded individuals who want to be part of our amazing organization and culture!
Do you want to be a strategic advisor — not just close the books?
Mission Edge is hiring a client-facing senior-level nonprofit accounting professional who
thrives on solving complex problems, advising mission-driven leaders, and using
professional judgment — not just following checklists.
Why This Role Matters
Our clients are mission-driven organizations doing meaningful work in their communities,
and they rely on us not just for accounting accuracy, but for financial clarity, compliance,
and strategic guidance.
You will serve as a trusted advisor, helping nonprofit leaders understand the financial story
behind their programs and funding.
This Is a Thinking Role
We are looking for someone who is comfortable with ambiguity, asks strong questions, and
can explain the why behind accounting decisions.
What You’ll Actually Do
  • Serve as the primary accounting resource for multiple nonprofit clients
  • Lead full-cycle accounting and month-end close processes
  • Analyze complex nonprofit accounting situations and recommend solutions
  • Guide clients on fund restrictions, allocations, and grant reporting
  • Communicate directly with executive directors and boards
This Role Is NOT
  • A transactional bookkeeping position
  • A checklist-only compliance job
  • A role where every situation has a predefined answer
Who Thrives Here
  • Like working directly with clients and advising leaders
  • Are energized by solving non-routine accounting challenges
  • Want autonomy and trust in your work
  • Care about mission-driven organizations

What You Bring
  • 7–10 years of accounting experience with strong nonprofit exposure
  • Deep understanding accrual accounting, GAAP, and grant compliance
  • QuickBooks Online and advanced Excel skills
  • Excellent communication and critical-thinking skills
Compensation Work–Life Balance
  • Salary: $80,000–$90,000 depending on experience
  • Generous paid vacation, holidays, sick leave, birthday, and volunteer time off
  • Cell phone and internet stipend
  • Retirement plan and health wellness programs
  • A culture built on trust, autonomy, and respect for professional judgment
Mission Edge has been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in San Diego and
Southern California and we are proud of our transparent, collaborative, judgment-driven
culture.
If you are ready to use your expertise to support organizations making a difference — while
working in a role that values your thinking — we would love to meet you.
Equal Opportunity Employer
Mission Edge values diversity in all forms. Employment decisions are made without regard
to legally protected characteristics.
