Job Description

Jennie Joiner with Forum Group PNW is partnering with a mission-driven Oregon nonprofit organization to identify an experienced Controller for a long-term contract opportunity.

If you're an experienced accounting professional looking for meaningful work, flexibility, and the ability to work remotely while maintaining work-life balance, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

**NOTE** while the position is remote, this individual will be expected to come into the office once a month so someone who lives in or near Eugene is preferable.

This is not a temporary short term fill-in assignment. The organization is seeking someone who can become a long-term extension of their accounting team through contract work. The position is expected to average approximately 32 hours per week, with the flexibility to create a schedule that works for both you and the organization.

What You'll Be Doing

Working directly with the CFO, you'll provide high-level accounting support, including:

  • Month-end and year-end close
  • Journal entries and general ledger accounting
  • Account reconciliations
  • Trial balance review
  • Audit preparation and supporting schedules
  • Financial analysis and spreadsheet work
  • Reviewing accounting documentation for accuracy and compliance
  • Assisting with special accounting projects

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys taking ownership of their work, can work independently, and is comfortable jumping in with minimal direction.

What They're Looking For

  • Strong Senior Accountant or Controller experience
  • Excellent month-end close and general ledger experience
  • Strong reconciliation and journal entry skills
  • Advanced Excel skills
  • Self-directed and comfortable working remotely
  • Ability to hit the ground running with minimal supervision
  • Must reside in Oregon (occasional in-person meetings may be requested approximately once per month)

Why You'll Love This Opportunity

  • 100% Remote (Oregon and near Eugene residents only)
  • Approximately 32 hours per week
  • Long-term contract with the potential for additional hours in the future if desired
  • Flexible schedule
  • Supportive, easy-going CFO who values work-life balance
  • Straightforward accounting work without excessive complexity
  • Opportunity to support a meaningful nonprofit mission
  • Collaborative, low-drama culture


If you're looking for a role where you can leverage your accounting expertise while enjoying flexibility and making an impact, we'd love to talk with you.
