Senior Staff Accountant
Step into a high-impact senior accounting role where you’ll own key financial processes and partner directly with leadership. This is a great opportunity to take full ownership of AP operations while supporting tuition reimbursement and core accounting functions.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
- Hybrid flexibility with 1–2 remote days per week
- Direct exposure to CFO and senior leadership – high visibility role
- Ownership of full-cycle AP with opportunity to drive process improvements
- Unique exposure to tuition reimbursement programs and employee benefits accounting
- Broad, hands-on role across AP, general ledger, and financial reporting
- Opportunity to play a key role during a departmental transition
Key Responsibilities for the Senior Staff Accountant:
- Manage full-cycle accounts payable, including invoice processing, coding, and payments (ACH/wires)
- Administer and track tuition reimbursement programs, ensuring accuracy and compliance
- Support month-end close, including journal entries and reconciliations
- Maintain general ledger accuracy and support financial reporting
- Assist with billing, receivables tracking, and account inquiries
Qualifications for the Senior Staff Accountant:
- Experience managing full-cycle accounts payable processes
- Experience handling tuition reimbursement programs or related accounting
- Familiarity with Blackbaud or similar accounting systems
- Strong experience with month-end close and reconciliations
