Job Description

Seeking a dynamic full-cycle accounting specialist to take ownership of our accounts payable and receivable operations. In this role, you won’t just enter numbers—you will be the financial backbone of an organization dedicated to improving lives, ensuring our operations run smoothly, our partners are supported, and our financial integrity remains rock-solid.

What You Will Achieve:

• Financial Stewardship: Manage full-cycle AP and AR workflows with precision, ensuring vendors are paid accurately, revenue is captured efficiently, and general ledgers are perfectly balanced.
  
• Process Optimization: Serve as the internal subject matter expert on our automated expense, invoicing, and fund accounting platforms, identifying ways to streamline workflows and reduce manual processing.
  
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as a trusted financial partner to internal department leaders and external partners, providing clear guidance on compliance, coding, and payment status.
  
• Audit & Compliance Readiness: Maintain flawless records, robust internal controls, and precise month-end reconciliations to ensure the organization is always audit-ready.
  
• Specialized Specialized Billing Management: Oversee unique, specialized revenue streams including program, residential, and agency-specific billing frameworks.
  

Core Responsibilities

• Accounts Payable Mastery: Review, code, and process recurring payments, ACH transactions, and employee reimbursements; prepare check runs and manage vendor master records with strict adherence to internal controls.
  
• Proactive Accounts Receivable: Generate accurate monthly statements for external agencies, book complex payments, issue credit adjustments, and deliver exceptional customer service to keep past-due accounts to a minimum.
  
• Treasury & Cash Controls: Manage banking deposits (checks, cash, and digital receipts), oversee petty cash and program funding cards, and actively resolve outstanding check discrepancies.
  
• Month-End & Reconciliations: Reconcile subledgers to the general ledger, perform bank-to-software reconciliations, and assist with accruals and prepaid expense reviews during month-end close.
  

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration.
  
• Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience in full-cycle AP/AR or general ledger accounting.
  
• Advanced Excel skills (formulas, pivot tables, complex schedules) and deep comfort working within enterprise fund accounting, automated invoicing, and expense management systems.
  
• A solid grasp of accrual accounting, restricted vs. unrestricted funds, internal controls, and compliance frameworks.
