Shape the Future of Our Mission: Senior Accounting ManagerAre you a numbers person who loves people as much as spreadsheets? Do you thrive in a modern, tech-forward environment where "the way we've always done it" is just a starting point for improvement?
Filoli islooking for a Senior Accounting Manager to lead our accounting operations. Reporting to the Controller, you won't just be managing a ledger-you'll be a strategic partner to our program directors, a mentor to a talented team of three, and a champion for financial clarity in a dynamic non-profit setting.

The Impact You'll Make- Operational Excellence: Own the day-to-day general ledger, month-end close, and financial reporting to ensure we are always audit-ready and GAAP-compliant.
- Collaborative Budgeting: Partner with department leaders to turn complex data into actionable budgets and forecasts using modern FP&A tools.
- Empowering Leadership: Lead, coach, and inspire our small but mighty team (AP Financial Analyst, AR Accountant, and Staff Accountant).
- Process Innovation: We love technology! You'll leverage AI tools (like Claude and Gemini) and platforms like Monday.com and Pigment to streamline workflows and build a "Finance Help Center" that empowers our entire staff.
- Strategic Compliance: Manage tax filings (Form 990, sales tax) and coordinate annual audits with a focus on transparency and integrity.
Who You Are- An Experienced Leader: You have 7+ years of accounting experience and 3+ years of supervisory experience. A Bachelor's in Accounting or Finance is required; a CPA is the cherry on top.
