[Hiring] US Accountant @The Back Room Offshoring Inc.

Your Typical, Atypical Day:

• This role has variety at its core. From facilitating client meetings to reconciling accounts, no day will be a "typical day" (hence the typical, atypical day).
• You will be supporting startup clients who need accounting help but may not have a need for an internal team at their growth stage (usually, we work with Seed through Series C clients).
• You will be working in a fully remote capacity, designing where and how you work each day.
• The only time you would be expected to be in proper work attire is during video calls with clients.
• You’ll be working with a variety of clients, so the ability to context shift, communicate, prioritize, and evaluate needs is crucial.
• You’ll have the opportunity to build robust accounting processes and systems for our clients.

Qualifications

• You are naturally curious and a problem-solver.
• You are a communicator at your core. Bonus points if you have customer or client service experience!
• You thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Startup experience is a huge plus!
• You take the initiative and jump at the opportunity to explore new ways of doing things.
• You are an expert collaborator! You ask for and give feedback regularly.
• You have a Bachelor’s degree in business, accounting, finance, or something similar.
• 1-2 years of experience as an accountant in a startup environment.

Requirements

• Strong interpersonal skills.
• Focus on the quality of work as well as client relationships.
• All things accounting + client management, including:
• Bank and credit card reconciliations.
• General ledger account reconciliations, especially high-risk balance sheet accounts.
• Revenue recognition: prepaid revenue/deferred revenue/unearned revenue.
• Prepaid expenses.
• Tech stacks familiarity (Ramp, Stripe, Bill.com, etc.).
• Processing accounts payable and accounts receivable.
• 1099 and W9 support.
• Producing financial reports.
• Ability to review bookkeeper tasks.
• Producing tax-ready end-of-year reports.
• Strong finance-based analytical skills.
• Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) creation for enhancing clients’ efficiency.
• Strong working knowledge of software and AI is key in this role.
• Daily use of G-Suite, QuickBooks Online, Bill.com, Expensify + Ramp, and video conferencing tools like Zoom.

Benefits

• Flexible work schedule promoting work-life balance.
• Work remotely! From home or the beach, your office is where you choose.
• A collaborative, communicative culture driven by our Core Purpose and Values, with smart people who love to learn and share knowledge.
• This role is open to Philippine citizens currently based in the Philippines.
