Job Description

That’s the title that makes this job easy to find…after all, you found it! Our role is a little non-traditional because it does not involve A/P or A/R. Our official title is Staff Accountant. We like the sound of that better; so do our other Staff Accountants. But first, a little about Unify.

If you’re from the Fort Collins area and enjoy Old Town, you’ve undoubtedly seen our building and the Unify sign, right there at the major intersection of College and Mountain. If you’ve got that as a visual, you’ll understand Unify. We’re just that central in the clients we provide services to. We’re just that solid. And we’re solidly in a college town, as quirky as that can be…meaning we are equally as quirky...in just as good a way.

Though we are a CPA firm, we don’t do audits, and our focus isn’t just tax. We provide ongoing strategic business advice to our clients throughout the year on a subscription basis. We get involved in everything from tax planning to menu items. That makes this role a customer-facing position, continually involved in our clients’ businesses.

Our Staff Accountants:

  • Assist with processing client financial information
  • Prepare monthly bank account reconciliations
  • Assist with client projects
  • Prepare sales tax returns
  • Prepare 1099s
  • Prepare general correspondence and reports.

Requirements Include:

  • At least 3 years of experience in full-charge bookkeeping, in public accounting or a private  with general knowledge of payroll and sales taxes a huge plus
  • Proficiency in QuickBooks Desktop, QuickBooks Online, and Microsoft Office products
  • A unique aptitude for figures and problem-solving
  • Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
  • A love for serving small businesses, small business owners, and their team.

This Will Not Be the Right Opportunity For Those Who:

  • Are uncomfortable with the ebb and flow of training and self-sufficiency in a busy CPA firm. 
  • Aren’t able to do accounting tasks without a lot of oversight
  • Create or experience a lot of workplace drama
  • Approach new ideas, new clients, new team members, or new technologies with skepticism or pessimism rather than seeing potential
  • Do not know how to speak with a confident, professional voice to instill customer confidence.

The pay for this position is $40,000 - $65,000 annualized, depending on relevant experience.

We expect to advertise for this position through the end of September.
