Help with month-end AP reconciliations, accruals, expense analysis, and supporting schedules.\n\nTurn transactions into insights. Prepare reporting around company spending, vendors, payments, outstanding liabilities, and expense trends.\n\nAutomate the boring stuff. Identify repetitive manual work and help implement better workflows, integrations, and automation.\n\nGrow beyond AP. As you develop, take on projects across cash forecasting, budgeting, reporting, financial analysis, and finance systems.\n\nWhat You’ll Bring:\n0-2 years of experience in accounting, finance, or a related analytical role.\n\nA degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, Economics, or a related field.\n\nA solid understanding of accounting fundamentals, including AP, GL coding and reconciliations.\n\nStrong Excel and Google Sheets skills, plus confidence working with financial data.\n\nExceptional attention to detail -you notice when something doesn’t look right and investigate why.\n\nStrong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines.\n\nClear communication skills and confidence working with people across different teams.\n\nA high degree of ownership. If something lands with you, you see it through.\n\nCuriosity about systems, automation, and how technology can make Finance better.\n\nComfort operating in an environment where processes are still evolving.\n\nCompensation:\nThe anticipated annual base salary range for this role is between $65,000-$80,000.
