Position Overview

This role is responsible for the execution and maintenance of internal accounting operations for a growing organization. The Corporate Accountant will manage day-to-day bookkeeping activities, oversee accounts receivable and accounts payable workflows, apply cash accurately, and support recurring billing processes. The position requires strong attention to detail, comfort with transactional volume, and ownership of core accounting functions.

This is a hands-on role designed for someone who prefers operational accounting work over advisory-only responsibilities and who can independently manage multiple accounting workstreams.


Primary Responsibilities:

Bookkeeping & General Ledger Management

  • Maintain accurate general ledger records and supporting schedules.
  • Perform regular reconciliations for bank accounts, payment platforms, and balance sheet accounts.
  • Manage month-end close tasks to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting.
  • Prepare documentation and schedules for external accounting or tax support as needed.

Accounts Receivable & Cash Application

  • Manage accounts receivable activities from billing through collection.
  • Apply incoming payments accurately and resolve unapplied or misapplied cash.
  • Monitor aging reports and follow up on overdue balances.
  • Investigate payment discrepancies, failed transactions, and customer account issues.
  • Maintain clear audit trails and AR documentation.

Recurring Billing & Revenue Tracking

  • Administer recurring billing activity and subscription records.
  • Ensure billing aligns with approved pricing structures and service plans.
  • Monitor billing accuracy, failed charges, and revenue variances.
  • Support implementation of pricing or plan changes within billing systems.

Accounts Payable

  • Process vendor invoices and ensure timely, accurate payments.
  • Maintain approval workflows and payment controls.
  • Keep vendor records current and properly documented.
  • Support cash flow planning through disciplined payables management.

Controls & Process Improvement

  • Maintain internal controls related to billing, cash flow, and revenue tracking.
  • Identify risks related to receivables, collections, or billing errors.
  • Improve accounting workflows as transaction volume increases.
  • Escalate trends or issues that could impact cash flow or reporting accuracy.

Performance Expectations

  • Financial records are consistently accurate, reconciled, and well-documented.
  • Month-end close processes are completed efficiently and on schedule.
  • Accounts receivable balances remain current with minimal aging.
  • Cash is applied correctly with limited exceptions or follow-up required.
  • Billing activity reflects approved pricing and services without recurring errors.
  • Accounting issues are identified early and resolved proactively.


Qualifications

Required

  • Minimum of 3 years of accounting or bookkeeping experience.
  • Strong hands-on experience with accounts receivable, cash application, and accounts payable.
  • Experience supporting recurring or subscription-based billing.
  • High level of accuracy and attention to detail.
  • Ability to manage responsibilities independently and prioritize competing tasks.
  • Comfortable working across teams to resolve billing or payment issues.
