Job Description

About the Role

We’re seeking a proactive, detail-oriented Accountant who enjoys digging into data, spotting inconsistencies, and improving how things work. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a startup or small-business environment—comfortable wearing multiple hats, collaborating cross-functionally, and taking ownership of their work.

You’ll begin in a part-time capacity, with the opportunity to grow into a full-time role as the business continues to scale.

Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date financial records using QuickBooks
  • Reconcile accounts, review transactions, and ensure overall data accuracy
  • Partner with team members across operations and leadership to resolve discrepancies and gather financial information
  • Analyze financial data to identify trends, cost-saving opportunities, and areas for process improvement
  • Prepare and review core financial reports, including P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statements
  • Support budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning initiatives
  • Ensure adherence to accounting best practices and internal controls
  • Be available during the workday for occasional calls or check-ins (morning or afternoon EST overlap required)

Requirements

  • 3+ years of accounting experience, ideally within startups or small businesses
  • Strong proficiency in QuickBooks (required)
  • Excellent attention to detail with strong analytical skills
  • Proactive mindset—you notice when something looks off and take initiative to investigate
  • Clear, confident communicator who’s comfortable collaborating across teams
  • Practical, common-sense problem solver who adapts to changing needs rather than relying solely on rigid processes
  • Ability to identify and implement cost-saving or process-improvement opportunities
  • Working knowledge of U.S. GAAP (a plus, but not required)
  • Fluency in English or Spanish (Spanish-speaking candidates from Latin America are encouraged to apply)
