Job DescriptionJob DescriptionAccounting Analyst

We're hiring an Accounting Analyst to manage daily ledger activity, large-scale account reconciliations, and routine financial entries across our digital platforms.

If your background is in high volume, fast-paced accounting operations-such as corporate AP/AR, payment processing, or healthcare revenue billing, treasury or banking -and you're the person who always finds a way to make spreadsheets work faster, you'll be a great fit. We are looking for strong core accounting skills, comfort with business software, and a knack for finding operational efficiencies. We will teach you the legal compliance rules on the job.

Core Responsibilities
  • Manage Ledger Activity: Review, balance, and post large volumes of routine transactions, incoming receipts, and disbursements with a high degree of precision.

  • Work Across Platforms: Navigate simultaneously across accounting software, online banking portals, and messaging apps to complete daily balance checks and account reviews.

  • Refine Routine Tasks: Spot repetitive steps, manual bottlenecks, or data mismatches in daily schedules and apply software tools or automated rules to streamline them.

  • Handle Distributed Inquiries: Resolve payment holds, account discrepancies, and internal approvals through clear written communication across remote teams.

  • Maintain Clear Records: Keep ledgers balanced and organized so all accounts remain audit-ready at all times.

Core Qualifications
  • 2-5 Years in Operational Accounting: Experience in roles like Financial Analyst, AP/AR Specialist, Revenue Cycle Analyst, or Billing/Reconciliation Specialist.

  • High-Volume Environment Background: Practical experience in environments that handle high transaction counts-such as shared service hubs, commercial banking back offices, property management firms, fintechs, or healthcare billing operations.

  • Tech-Minded Approach: Demonstrable history of using digital tools to reduce manual steps (e.g., using Advanced Excel features, setting up workflow rules in software like NetSuite, Sage, or QuickBooks).

  • Multi-Screen Multi-Tasking: Comfortable managing several open applications and screens as part of your standard daily routine.

  • Distributed Work Skills: Proven capability to collaborate, follow up, and resolve ledger questions independently in a remote team setting.

  • Attention to Detail: Excellent eye for identifying numerical discrepancies and balancing complex accounts under routine deadlines.

Why Join Us?

This is an excellent opportunity for an accounting professional who enjoys solving operational puzzles, using modern software tools to eliminate manual routine work, and learning a specialized sector within a supportive environment.

Compensation / Pay Rate (Up to): $75,000.00 - $85,000.00 Per Year
