What are the responsibilities and job description for the Accounting Manager position at CloudWave, Healthcare IT Solutions?
About CloudWave
CloudWave is a private equity-backed company dedicated to delivering expert solutions for MEDITECH and the healthcare enterprise. Our team of engineers and consultants are MEDITECH specialists with deep track records of success — and we’re growing.
We offer competitive salaries, strong benefits, and real opportunities for growth. If you want to do meaningful work inside a fast-moving, PE-backed business that takes its financials seriously, keep reading.
The Role
We’re looking for an Accounting Manager who can walk in the door and own it. Not someone who needs hand-holding or constant direction — someone who sees what needs to be done and does it. You’ll be the technical backbone of the accounting team, managing month-end close, driving process improvement, and developing the staff behind you.
You’ll report to the Controller and work closely with leadership in a PE-owned environment where EBITDA, MRR, and recurring revenue reporting are front and center. NetSuite is our system — we’re live on ERP, CRM, PSA, and 360 SuiteBilling for recurring revenue — and you’ll be expected to know it well and make it work harder for us.
This is not a maintenance role. We need someone who will identify problems, fix them, and build something better.
What You’ll Own
You’re technically strong in accounting — not just a manager of managers, but someone who knows the details and isn’t afraid to get into them. You’ve worked in a PE-backed or metrics-driven environment and understand what it means to close fast, report clean, and answer hard questions about the numbers.
This role is open to fully remote candidates or those who prefer to work in-office at our Chagrin Falls, OH location. Either way works for us — what matters is output.
