Staff Accountant


Salary: $35.00-45.00 commensurate with experience


Looking to grow your accounting career while doing work that genuinely makes a difference? This is an opportunity to join a mission‑driven organization where your financial expertise directly supports meaningful community impact.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • You’ll play a visible, valued role supporting a nonprofit mission — your work isn’t buried, it matters
    • Broad accounting exposure that builds long‑term career value (GL, month‑end, audit support, reporting)
    • Stable, purpose‑driven organization with thoughtful leadership and clear priorities
    • Supportive, team‑oriented environment that values collaboration, balance, and professional growth
    • A manager who invests in training, provides clear expectations, and encourages continuous learning
    • Hybrid or flexible work arrangements are often part of the culture, supporting work‑life balance


Key Responsibilities:



  • Prepare and maintain general ledger entries, account reconciliations, and monthly close activities
    • Assist with financial reporting, budgeting support, and variance analysis
    • Support audits, grants, and compliance documentation as needed
    • Process journal entries, accruals, and balance sheet reconciliations
    • Collaborate with internal teams to ensure accurate and timely financial information


Qualifications:



  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or related field
    • 1–3 years of accounting experience, ideally with exposure to nonprofit or fund accounting
    • Comfortable working with accounting systems, spreadsheets, and financial data
