Accounting Manager (GAAP, Multi-Entity, QuickBooks) – Remote | U.S. Hours

Position Type: Full-Time, Remote Working Hours: U.S. Business Hours

About the Role

We’re hiring an Accounting Manager to own financial accuracy, reporting, and month-end close across multiple entities.

This is a hands-on, execution-driven role — not a supervisory-only position.

You will:

  • Run clean, accurate month-end closes

  • Manage payroll and compliance

  • Maintain structured, audit-ready financials

If you’re someone who thrives in structured environments and takes full ownership of financial accuracy — this role is built for you.

  • Prepare financial reports aligned with client requirements

  • Ensure compliance with:

  • Provide insights for decision-making

6. Process Improvement & Systems

  • Review and document accounting processes

  • Identify inefficiencies and improve workflows

  • Standardize systems across multiple clients/entities

7. Client & Internal Coordination

  • Communicate with leadership on:

  • Priorities

  • Deadlines

  • Support client-facing communication when needed

  • Align reporting expectations and timelines

What Makes You a Strong Fit

  • You are highly detail-oriented (low tolerance for errors)

  • You take ownership of financial accuracy

  • You thrive in structured, process-driven environments

  • You are proactive in solving accounting issues

  • You balance:

  • Accuracy

  • Speed

  • Compliance

Requirements (Must-Have)

  • 5+ years in accounting or finance

  • Strong experience with:

  • Accrual accounting

  • GAAP financials

  • Experience managing:

  • Multi-location businesses

  • Proficiency in:

  • QuickBooks Online (or Desktop/Enterprise)

  • Advanced Excel:

  • XLOOKUP

  • INDEX/MATCH

  • Pivot Tables

  • Payroll experience (e.g., Gusto)

  • Experience with U.S. sales tax filings

  • Strong written and verbal English

Nice to Have

  • Experience with:

  • NetSuite

  • ADP / Paylocity

  • Bill.com

  • Ramp

  • Exposure to outsourced accounting firms

Operational Environment

You’ll have:

Your success depends on:

In short: You ensure financials are accurate, structured, and reliable at all times.

Key Metrics (KPIs)

  • Clean, organized accounting records

  • Payroll processed accurately and on time

  • Full compliance with tax filings

  • Leadership confidence in financial data

Why This Role Stands Out

  • High ownership over financial operations

  • Work across complex, multi-entity structures

  • Clear expectations and structured systems

  • Direct exposure to leadership

  • Growth into:
