$149k - $163k

Filoli Center

Job Description

Job Description

Shape the Future of Our Mission: Senior Accounting Manager

Are you a numbers person who loves people as much as spreadsheets? Do you thrive in a modern, tech-forward environment where "the way we’ve always done it" is just a starting point for improvement?

Filoli is looking for a Senior Accounting Manager to lead our accounting operations. Reporting to the Controller, you won’t just be managing a ledger—you’ll be a strategic partner to our program directors, a mentor to a talented team of three, and a champion for financial clarity in a dynamic non-profit setting.

Location: Filoli Historic House & Garden, Woodside, CA

Position Type: Full-time, Year-round, Salaried, Benefit Eligible

Schedule: Typically Monday-Friday, 9:00am to 5:30pm (Flexibility, seasonal overtime and off hours commitment required)

Salary Range: $149,000 to $163,000 (Depending upon candidate experience)

Reports to: Controller

The Impact You’ll Make
  • Operational Excellence: Own the day-to-day general ledger, month-end close, and financial reporting to ensure we are always audit-ready and GAAP-compliant.

  • Collaborative Budgeting: Partner with department leaders to turn complex data into actionable budgets and forecasts using modern FP&A tools.

  • Empowering Leadership: Lead, coach, and inspire our small but mighty team (AP Financial Analyst, AR Accountant, and Staff Accountant).

  • Process Innovation: We love technology! You’ll leverage AI tools (like Claude and Gemini) and platforms like Monday.com and Pigment to streamline workflows and build a "Finance Help Center" that empowers our entire staff.

  • Strategic Compliance: Manage tax filings (Form 990, sales tax) and coordinate annual audits with a focus on transparency and integrity.

Who You Are
  • An Experienced Leader: You have 7+ years of accounting experience and 3+ years of supervisory experience. A Bachelor’s in Accounting or Finance is required; a CPA is the cherry on top.

  • A Non-Profit Pro: You understand the nuances of multiple revenue streams and are passionate about advancing Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Inclusion (DEAI) within financial systems.

  • Tech-Savvy & Curious: You’re an Excel wizard (complex formulas are your love language) and you’re genuinely excited about using AI and work management platforms to make work better.

  • Adaptable & Composed: You thrive in a fast-paced environment and can navigate seasonal peaks (like audit or budget season) with grace and a problem-solving mindset.

Why Join Filoli?

We believe in taking care of the people who take care of our mission. This is a full-time, flexibly scheduled position that allows for one remote day per week once you’ve settled in.

Your Benefits Package Includes:

  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage.

  • Life and Long-Term Disability Insurance.

  • 401(k) retirement plan.

  • Generous Vacation, Sick Leave, and Holiday pay.

  • Flexible Spending Account (Flex Plan).

Ready to Lead?

If you are an authentic leader with a commitment to integrity and a desire to support a racially equitable and financially resilient organization, we want to meet you!

Apply Today! Filoli is an equal opportunity employer committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
