YMCA Lafayette
Detail-driven accountant? Own AP, vendors & fixed assets at the Y in Birmingham.
Job Description
We're looking for a detail-driven Accounting Specialist to own the vendor side of our books. You'll run accounts payable, vendor relationships, our fleet fuel program, and fixed assets, with a clear set of recurring deadlines that are yours to own. Why you'll love it here
- Health Coverage : Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus a Flexible Spending Account (FSA).
- Disability & Life Insurance : Long-term disability (upon eligibility) and company-paid life insurance.
- Generous Time Off: A very generous PTO plan, 10 paid holidays, 6 weeks of paid FMLA, and 1 week of grandparent leave.
- Retirement: 403(b) retirement savings plan with a 12% company contribution after 2 years of eligibility.
- Family-Friendly Perks: Free Y membership, free summer day camp and afterschool care, one free session of summer resident camp, and discounts on childcare programs, youth sports, swim lessons, and more.
- Professional Development: Educational partnerships offering tuition discounts.
- A mission you can feel good about every single day
You have a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance and 1 to 3 years of relevant accounting experience. You're proficient in Excel, you catch the details others miss, and you can juggle multiple deadlines without dropping a ball. You communicate well, build good working relationships, and are just as comfortable working independently as you are on a team. Essential Functions What you'll own
- Vendor Management : Keep vendor records and compliance documents (W-9s, insurance certificates) accurate, and oversee 1099 reporting, related tax filings, and exemptions.
- Fuel & Credit Card Administration : Run the organization's fleet fuel program and credit card system, including reporting, refunds, and supporting staff.
- Accounts Payable: Oversee accurate, on-schedule processing of vendor invoices and payments, and find ways to make the AP process better. Reconcile and record month-end accruals and vendor-related entries.
- Fixed Assets: Maintain fixed asset and capital project records, record depreciation, and reconcile fixed asset accounts during month-end close.
- Plus: Other duties as assigned to support the department and the organization.
- Mission Advancement: Accepts and demonstrates the Y's core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.
- Collaboration: Builds positive relationships with branch staff and leadership and communicates clearly and constructively.
- Operational Effectiveness: Uses data to spot problems, recommend solutions, and follow through on details.
- Personal Growth: Pursues self-development and stays current on best practices in risk and compliance.
