Description

Accounting Manager

Salary: $110,000–$130,000
Location: Hybrid (3 days onsite in Newark, NJ)

Ready to take ownership of accounting operations while helping drive finance technology and process improvements? Join a well-established, mission-driven nonprofit organization where you'll have visibility across leadership, Finance, IT, and Development teams while playing a key role in NetSuite optimization and financial strategy.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Leadership role with oversight of AP/AR and core accounting functions
• High-impact position supporting finance transformation and automation initiatives
• Lead NetSuite enhancements, integrations, and user adoption efforts
• Manage complex nonprofit accounting, including grants, contributions, and deferred revenue
• Partner with senior leadership on cash management, reporting, and decision support
• Collaborative, mission-focused culture with strong growth and visibility

Key Responsibilities of Accounting Manager

• Oversee daily accounting operations, including AP and AR functions
• Manage month-end close, reconciliations, journal entries, and fixed assets
• Lead revenue recognition for grants, contributions, pledges, and deferred revenue
• Support cash forecasting and liquidity planning
• Drive process improvements, automation projects, and reporting enhancements
• Partner with IT and external vendors on NetSuite optimization and system integrations

Qualifications of Accounting Manager

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
• 5–7+ years of progressive accounting experience with significant nonprofit accounting exposure
• Strong NetSuite experience required
• Experience with accounting systems integrations and process improvement initiatives
• Prior leadership or supervision of AP/AR functions preferred
• Strong understanding of GAAP and nonprofit revenue recognition principles

Ideal for an Accounting Manager or Senior Accountant looking to leverage both accounting expertise and technology skills in a highly visible, mission-driven environment.
