We are recognized as a strong partner with warm-hearted hospitality staff nationwide. Windsor Hospitality is looking for their newest Accounting Manager.

This position is located at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV. We are right in the middle of the action! Our hotel is perfectly situated next to the Las Vegas Convention Center and just three miles from Harry Reid International Airport. With the monorail just steps away and world-class entertainment, dining, and shopping minutes from our door, you will be working in the heart of all that Las Vegas has to offer.

The Accounting Manager is the sole on-property accounting resource for the hotel. Reporting to the General Manager, this role performs the full accounting cycle directly, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, cash handling and house bank controls, general ledger maintenance, and the month-end close.

The Accounting Manager reports to the General Manager for day-to-day directions and receives technical directions, reviews, and support from the corporate accounting team. Work is performed in accordance with Company policy, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and the Uniform System of Accounts for the Lodging Industry (USALI).

1. Month-End Close and Financial Reporting. Prepare monthly financial statements, supporting work papers, and schedules in accordance with GAAP, USALI, Company policy, and the applicable hotel management agreement.

2. General Ledger. Maintain the hotel general ledger, including routine journal entries and month-end accruals. Research and correct posting errors and coding discrepancies on a timely basis.

3. Transactional Accounting. Process and reconcile accounts receivable, accounts payable, credit, night audit revenue posting, cash handling and house banks. Monitor group and city ledger aging and apply Company approval thresholds to the disbursement cycle.

5. Internal Controls and Compliance. Execute Company internal accounting controls and safeguard Company and property assets.
