Requirements

We’re looking for a Senior Client Accountant to join our growing team.

In this role, you’ll lead the day-to-day accounting operations for a portfolio of nonprofit clients, serve as a strategic partner for financial clarity, and mentor junior team members. You’ll work closely with clients to ensure timely, accurate, and actionable financial reporting that supports their mission and decision-making.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who loves solving complex problems, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and wants to make a meaningful impact through finance.

What You’ll Do

• Lead accounting operations for your client portfolio, including oversight of AP, AR, payroll, and general ledger activities.
• Serve as the main point of contact for client communication—building trust through proactive, responsive, and high-quality service.
• Manage and deliver accurate monthly close processes, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and variance analyses.
• Prepare and review financial statements, board reports, grant tracking schedules, and cash flow forecasts.
• Collaborate with clients to support annual audits, 990 filings, and funder reporting requirements.
• Ensure compliance with client-specific regulatory and internal controls.
• Provide strategic financial insights to support budgeting, forecasting, and long-term planning.
• Supervise and support Associates and Bookkeepers, including review of their work and mentoring on best practices.
• Develop and document standard operating procedures (SOPs) and contribute to internal process improvements.
• Take ownership of special projects and cross-functional initiatives as assigned.

What You Bring

• A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (CPA or CPA-track preferred).
• 3–5 years of experience in nonprofit accounting or client services; public accounting or CAS experience is a plus.
• Strong proficiency with accounting tools such as QuickBooks Online, Sage Intacct, and Microsoft Excel.
• Excellent communication, project management, and client relationship skills.
• Ability to lead multiple engagements with exceptional attention to detail and time management.
• A growth mindset with a desire to continuously improve systems, skills, and services.
