Job Summary

The GL Accountant at Strider will play a foundational role in supporting the day‑to‑day operations of the accounting function, with a focus on the general ledger, journal entries, account reconciliations, and the monthly close. You will partner closely with senior accountants and managers to ensure timely, accurate, and well‑documented financial records. This is an excellent opportunity for an early‑career accountant to build a broad foundation across all areas of the accounting cycle in a fast‑moving, multi‑entity SaaS environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Journal Entries: Prepare and post recurring and non‑recurring journal entries for accruals, prepaids, depreciation, amortization, intercompany activity, and other GL transactions, ensuring proper coding and adequate support.
• Account Reconciliations: Perform monthly reconciliations of assigned balance sheet accounts (cash, prepaids, accrued expenses, fixed assets, intercompany, etc.), researching and resolving variances on a timely basis.
• Monthly Close: Execute assigned tasks within the monthly, quarterly, and annual close calendar to support an on‑time close. Maintain close checklists and supporting workpapers.
• Accounts Payable & Expense Support: Assist with vendor bill coding review, expense reimbursement processing in Ramp, and credit card transaction reconciliation.
• Bank & Cash: Reconcile bank and credit card accounts across multiple subsidiaries; investigate reconciling items and partner with treasury on cash activity.
• Audit Support: Pull supporting documentation, prepare assigned schedules, and respond to PBC requests from internal and external auditors under the direction of senior team members.
• Financial Reporting: Assist with monthly flux analysis, balance sheet substantiation, and ad‑hoc reporting requests.
• Process & Documentation: Document desk procedures for assigned tasks; identify opportunities to streamline or automate routine work.
• Cross‑Functional Support: Partner with People Ops, FP&A, and operational teams to answer accounting questions and provide transaction support as needed.
• Systems: Use NetSuite, Ramp, Tabs, Claude and supporting tools to record, query, and reconcile activity; help maintain data integrity across the chart of accounts and subsidiary structure.
