Senior Accountant

Salary: $70,000 - $90,000 + strong benefits

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY: Senior Accountant

This Senior Accountant role is a great fit for someone who wants meaningful work, real ownership, and visibility—without burning out. You’ll join a mission-driven organization where accounting isn’t just about closing the books; it’s about supporting a team that makes a real impact in the community every day.

The Senior Accountant will be hands-on with month-end close, financial reporting, grant compliance, and operational accounting, while working closely with leadership in a collaborative, people-first environment. If you like variety, purpose, and a role where your work actually matters, this could be your next move.

WHY THIS SENIOR ACCOUNTANT ROLE STANDS OUT

  • Impact: The Senior Accountant supports an organization improving lives daily
  • 401(k): Employer contribution and employer match
  • Balance: Flexible schedule, generous PTO, and paid holidays
  • Leadership: Work alongside a phenomenal CFO who is a great mentor
  • Growth: Supervisory role down the line
  • Culture: Supportive, collaborative team that values authenticity and work-life balance
  • Best-in-class medical insurance
  • Newly created role due to growth
  • 4 weeks of PTO to start

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SENIOR ACCOUNTANT

  • Month-end and year-end close for multiple entities
  • Manage general ledger activity, journal entries, and reconciliations
  • Support AP, AR, payroll, and financial reporting processes
  • Partner cross-functionally with billing and payroll to streamline processes
  • Support the Director of Finance with budgeting initiatives and special projects
  • Deliver timely, accurate financial statements and oversee fund and grant allocations

WHAT YOU BRING AS A SENIOR ACCOUNTANT

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance
  • Nonprofit experience highly preferred

BOTTOM LINE

This Senior Accountant role offers purpose, balance, and upward mobility—not just another accounting seat. If you’re ready to grow your career while doing work that supports real people and real outcomes, this Senior Accountant opportunity is worth a closer look.
