• Prepare and review P&L statements, balance sheets, cash flow reports, and other financial reporting
• Manage accounts payable and accounts receivable
• Oversee bank and credit card reconciliations
• Monitor cash flow and provide ownership with clear visibility into cash position and upcoming obligations
• Maintain accurate intercompany accounting and reconciliations
• Review restaurant sales, deposits, comps, voids, refunds, and other transactional activity for accuracy
• Work with restaurant management and ownership to identify discrepancies and strengthen financial controls
• Oversee payroll accounting and coordinate with payroll providers as needed
• Track and reconcile sales tax, vendor payments, and other recurring financial obligations
• Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning
• Analyze food, beverage, labor, operating, and other costs and identify meaningful variances
• Develop and maintain effective internal controls and accounting procedures
• Coordinate with external CPAs, tax professionals, banks, insurance providers, and other financial partners
• Prepare documentation and schedules for tax filings, audits, and year-end accounting
• Improve existing accounting processes and systems as the company grows
• Provide ownership with concise, useful financial reporting and help translate financial data into actionable business insights

Qualifications

• 5+ years of progressive accounting or finance experience
• Experience managing month-end close and preparing financial statements

• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills

• Strong organizational and time-management skills
• Ability to work independently, prioritize competing deadlines, and take ownership of financial processes
• Comfortable working directly with business owners and operational leadership
• Strong communication skills and the ability to explain financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders
• Experience with restaurant, hospitality, retail, or multi-location accounting strongly preferred
• Accounting/finance degree preferred, but not required for candidates with substantial relevant experience

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who goes beyond simply recording transactions. This person should understand the numbers, recognize when something doesn’t look right, ask the right questions, and help us build stronger financial systems as the company continues to evolve.

You should be equally comfortable digging into the details of a reconciliation and stepping back to give ownership a clear picture of the financial health of the business.

To apply, please submit your resume along with a brief introduction outlining your relevant accounting experience, particularly any experience working with restaurants, hospitality, or multi-location businesses.
