We are sharing a specialised part-time consulting opportunity for experienced corporate and controllership accountants with hands-on expertise in financial reporting, general ledger ownership, period-end close, reconciliations, and core accounting operations.

This role supports an advanced AI initiative focused on translating real-world accounting and controllership workflows into structured evaluation materials. Selected professionals will develop realistic accounting scenarios, review model-generated outputs for accuracy and GAAP compliance, and provide detailed written feedback across financial reporting, bookkeeping, and operational accounting tasks.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Reporting & Scenario Development

  • Design realistic scenarios involving financial-statement preparation and reporting
  • Develop tasks covering journal entries, account analysis, and supporting schedules
  • Create practical assignments reflecting routine and complex controllership responsibilities
  • Ensure scenarios accurately represent professional accounting workflows and documentation standards

Period-End Close & Reconciliations

  • Develop and review month-end, quarter-end, and period-end close scenarios
  • Evaluate general ledger activity, account reconciliations, and bank reconciliations
  • Assess accruals, prepaid expenses, cut-off considerations, and adjusting entries
  • Identify calculation errors, unsupported balances, and incomplete close procedures

Accounting Operations

  • Create tasks involving accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and bookkeeping operations
  • Review fixed-asset registers, depreciation schedules, and related journal entries
  • Assess transaction coding, account classification, and operational accounting controls
  • Evaluate whether accounting treatments are complete, consistent, and appropriately supported

AI Output Evaluation & Feedback

  • Review and compare AI-generated accounting outputs for accuracy and GAAP compliance
  • Assess journal entries, reconciliations, schedules, and reporting conclusions
  • Identify unsupported assumptions, classification errors, and weaknesses in professional judgment
  • Provide clear written feedback explaining strengths, errors, and required corrections
  • Collaborate asynchronously with research and quality-review teams

Ideal Profile

Strong candidates may have:

  • At least 3–5 years of corporate, in-house, public accounting, or client accounting experience
  • Hands-on ownership of the general ledger and period-end close process
  • Experience preparing financial statements, journal entries, and account reconciliations
  • Strong understanding of accrual accounting and core US GAAP principles
  • Familiarity with accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and accounting operations
  • Experience reviewing accounting work prepared by other professionals
  • Excellent written communication and close attention to detail
  • Ability to work independently within an asynchronous project environment

Educational Background

  • A bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, business, or a related discipline is highly relevant
  • CPA credentials may strengthen an application
  • Advanced accounting coursework or professional training may also be valuable
  • Equivalent senior-level experience in corporate accounting, controllership, or client accounting services may be considered

Nice to Have

  • Experience with QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or similar accounting platforms
  • Advanced Excel or spreadsheet-modelling skills
  • Background in bookkeeping or client accounting services
  • Experience supporting audits, financial reviews, or management reporting
  • Familiarity with fixed assets, depreciation, accruals, and prepaid-expense accounting
  • Knowledge of close checklists, account-certification processes, and reporting controls
  • Previous involvement in task writing, rubric development, structured evaluation, or AI training-data work
  • Experience working across multiple entities, business units, or accounting systems

Why This Opportunity

  • Apply practical accounting and controllership expertise to advanced AI evaluation work
  • Develop realistic scenarios grounded in financial reporting and close-management practice
  • Influence how AI systems reason through core accounting tasks
  • Review challenging outputs involving journal entries, reconciliations, schedules, and reporting judgments
  • Participate in flexible remote work with competitive hourly compensation

Contract Details

  • Independent contractor role
  • Fully remote with flexible scheduling
  • Competitive rates between $75–$115 per hour depending on expertise and project scope
  • The application process may include a resume or professional-experience summary
  • Applicants may be asked to describe their accounting practice areas, specialties, and certifications
  • Selected candidates may complete a brief sample task
  • Weekly payments via Stripe or Wise
  • Work may include scenario development, accounting-output evaluation, written feedback, and quality calibration
  • Projects may be extended, shortened, or adjusted depending on scope and performance
  • Work will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution
