We are looking for a Sr. Accountant to join a nonprofit-focused team in Massachusetts on a contract-to-permanent basis. This role supports financial statement audit engagements by applying strong fund accounting knowledge, maintaining accurate records, and partnering with internal and client stakeholders to keep reporting on track.

Responsibilities:
• Support nonprofit audit engagements by preparing schedules, organizing financial data, and responding to audit-related requests in a timely manner.
• Manage month-end activities, including posting journal entries, reviewing account activity, and helping ensure an accurate and efficient close process.
• Maintain the general ledger with careful attention to fund-based accounting requirements and proper financial classification.
• Perform account reconciliations and investigate discrepancies to strengthen the accuracy and integrity of financial reporting.
• Complete bank reconciliations and resolve outstanding items by coordinating with appropriate internal or external contacts.
• Assist in preparing documentation and analyses that support annual audits, compliance reporting, and nonprofit financial reviews.
• Collaborate with team members and clients to clarify accounting issues, improve documentation, and support ongoing financial operations.
