Description

Accounting Manager

Looking for a role that offers more than just month-end close? Join a growing family office where you'll gain direct exposure to leadership, diverse investments, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact across multiple entities. If you're a CPA who enjoys variety, ownership, and being a true business partner, this could be the career move you've been waiting for.

Salary: $120,000 - $140,000 + bonus/benefits (based on experience level)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


  • Newly created position driven by company growth

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and a highly entrepreneurial environment

  • Broad accounting experience across investments, real estate, startups, and other entities

  • Opportunity to own processes and help shape the future of the accounting function

  • High visibility role with meaningful impact on business decisions

  • Strong career growth potential as the organization continues to expand

  • Chance to participate in accounting system and process improvement initiatives

  • Work closely with finance leadership in a lean, collaborative team environment

  • Gain exposure beyond traditional corporate accounting in a dynamic family office setting

  • Autonomy and trust to manage priorities and drive results


Key Responsibilities for the Accounting Manager:


  • Lead month-end close and financial reporting for multiple entities

  • Oversee and improve accounts payable processes and vendor management

  • Support accounting system implementations and process improvement initiatives

  • Partner with finance leadership on cross-entity accounting operations

  • Mentor and support a Staff Accountant

  • Assist with reconciliations, journal entries, and full-cycle accounting activities


Qualifications for the Accounting Manager:


  • Active CPA license required

  • 5+ years of accounting experience

  • Experience with multi-entity accounting, family office, investment, or similar environments preferred

  • Proven background in month-end close, financial reporting, and process improvements
