Accounting Support Specialist
Location: Delta, Colorado
Hours: 40 hours per week
Employment Type: Full Time
Role Overview
This Accounting Support role is designed to create capacity within the accounting team, reduce weekend and after-hours work, and increase the overall durability of department operations.
By taking ownership of structured, repeatable accounting tasks, this role allows senior team members to focus on higher-value work such as process improvements, system upgrades, and proactive initiatives that move the business forward.
What Success Looks Like
Team Impact
- Weekend and after-hours work is significantly reduced.
- Senior team members have time and space to focus on improvements, upgrades, and forward-looking work.
Operational Impact
- Recurring accounting tasks are completed consistently and accurately.
- Workflows are more organized, predictable, and less reactive.
Capacity Impact
- A net gain of 40 productive hours per week.

Key Responsibilities
This role owns clearly defined, repeatable accounting processes, including:
- Residual support
- Data entry and transaction processing
- Account and data cleanup
- Routine tracking and reconciliation support
- Maintaining organized and well-documented records
The expectation is straightforward: take ownership of assigned processes and execute them accurately and consistently.
What We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate is:
- Detail-oriented – notices small issues before they become big problems
- Reliable – meets deadlines and follows through consistently
- Organized – keeps records clear, structured, and easy to follow
- Self-directed – able to execute defined tasks independently once trained
- Process-minded – recognizes patterns and improves repeatable work over time
Strong working style matters. This person should be collaborative and easy to work with, respectful of focused work time, and comfortable handling repetitive tasks while steadily improving how they are done.

- It does not design accounting systems, though it supports and improves them.
