Are you a numbers person who thrives on precision but craves a role with purpose, pace, and personality? If so, Colwen Hotels wants you on our team!

We’re looking for a motivated, detail-focused Corporate Staff Accountant to join our growing team of accounting professionals. In this role, you'll do more than balance the books — you’ll help shape the financial health of a vibrant hospitality brand that’s redefining the guest experience.

Prepare and analyze monthly financial statements

Reconcile general ledger and bank accounts for multiple properties

File monthly, quarterly, and annual sales/use tax returns

Research and resolve discrepancies and support accounts receivable

Post key journal entries (prepaids, accruals, reclasses)

Collaborate across departments and support annual audits

Get involved in special projects that make a real impact

Keep things organized, on time, and audit-ready – always

What You Bring To The Table

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance

2 years of accounting experience (bonus points for hotel or multi-entity work!)

Sharp with numbers, but also a great communicator

Proficient in Microsoft Office (especially Excel)

Experience with Sage Intacct is a major plus

A proactive mindset and collaborative spirit

Integrity, confidentiality, and attention to detail – always

What’s in It for You?
