About the Role We're looking for a detail-oriented Staff Accountant to support the Controller across four legal entities (including a consolidation) at a US-based, multi-entity franchise business. This is a high-trust, high-access role with full visibility into the company's financials and the autonomy to execute across accounts payable, bank reconciliations, month-end close, and cash management. You'll start with bank reconciliations and AP processing, then grow into owning a defined slice of month-end close and contributing to weekly cash forecasting within 90 days—with room to grow as the business scales. The ideal candidate has the instinct to recognize when something doesn't look right and the initiative to flag it before it becomes a problem. What You'll Do Bank Reconciliations & Cash Management • Reconcile seven to eight bank accounts plus cash on hand across multiple store locations on a recurring basis • Prepare the weekly cash forecast file every Monday, fully reconciled and ready to present at the 12:00 PM leadership meeting • Process franchisee royalty pulls on the 15th of every month with zero tolerance for error—a triple-check-before-you-execute task • Set up ACH pulls every Wednesday for Thursday execution at the distribution center entity Accounts Payable • Own AP end to end—enter bills, route for approval, and schedule payments across all four entities • Run a weekly Thursday AP review to confirm what money is leaving the bank accounts • Enter invoices on a recurring cadence to keep balances current • Review purchase orders for accuracy and flag anything off—quantities, pricing, or vendor details Month-End Close • Own a defined slice of month-end close within the first 90 days, expanding over time • Process recurring journal entries and record revenue as part of the close cycle • Target completion by the 5th–6th of each month for Controller review and leadership presentation Communications & Stakeholder Support • Check in daily with the Controller via Google Chat and scheduled meetings • Handle routine items in the shared accounting inbox—vendor inquiries, franchisee questions, and incoming bills across all four entities • Serve as liaison for simple external communications (e.g., requesting a missing invoice) without heavy decision-making • Escalate anything unusual or outside normal parameters rather than making independent judgment calls What We're Looking For Non-Negotiables • 1–3 years of accounting experience in a staff or junior accountant capacity • Multi-entity accounting experience—comfortable managing books across multiple legal entities • Solid understanding of accrual-based accounting (not cash-basis only) • AP and AR proficiency, including familiarity with AP software such as Ramp or similar • Experience with bank reconciliations, journal entries, and financial reporting • Strong Excel / Google Sheets skills and high attention to detail • Excellent written and verbal English communication • Trustworthy with sensitive financial data and system access, and comfortable working independently in a remote, high-trust environment Preferred Qualifications • NetSuite experience (strong ERP proficiency with willingness to ramp quickly also considered)
