Staff Accountant

Job Description

Staff Accountant | Build Your Accounting Career Beyond the Basics

\n

\n

Are you an accountant who wants to do more than process transactions?

\n

\n

MM Lending is looking for a Staff Accountant who is ready to take ownership, solve problems, and build meaningful hands-on experience across a growing lending operation. You’ll work directly with the Controller and gain exposure to everything from accounts payable and reconciliations to loan accounting, month-end close, financial reporting, and process improvement.

\n

\n

What You’ll Do

\n

\n
• Own the accounts payable process from invoice through payment
\n
• Prepare bank, balance sheet, and loan-related reconciliations
\n
• Support month-end close, including journal entries, accruals, prepaids, and supporting schedules
\n
• Record and reconcile loan activity including fundings, principal, interest, fees, draws, and payoffs
\n
• Research discrepancies and trace transactions across multiple systems
\n
• Support financial reporting, audits, tax preparation, and lender reporting
\n
• Work with QuickBooks Online, Excel, banking platforms, and loan origination and servicing systems
\n
• Help identify smarter, more efficient ways to improve accounting processes, controls, reporting, and automation
\n

\n

\n

You’ll be a great fit if you have:

\n

\n
• A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting
\n
• A solid understanding of debits and credits, accrual accounting, journal entries, reconciliations, and financial statements
\n
• Strong Excel skills and the ability to learn new financial systems
\n
• A knack for digging into discrepancies and figuring out what happened
\n
• Strong attention to detail and follow-through
\n
• The ability to manage deadlines while adapting to changing priorities
\n

\n

Why This Role Stands Out

\n

This isn't a position where you'll be stuck doing the same task every day. You'll develop experience across the accounting cycle while learning the financial side of a lending business. As you demonstrate proficiency and accuracy, you’ll take on increasing ownership of month-end close responsibilities.
