Senior Accountant Location:
San Francisco Bay Area | Hybrid, minimum three days onsite per week
Compensation:
$125,000-$135,000 base, commensurate with experience
Employment Type:
Full-time, Permanent About the Opportunity The Role Reporting to the Controller, the Senior Accountant will lead assigned month-end close activities, prepare and review complex journal entries and account reconciliations, and own audit-readiness across their areas. Audit exposure isn't a nice-to-have here, it's central to how the team operates day to day. You'll manage the cash disbursement and release process, serve as a key point of contact for banking relationships, and support the organization's corporate card program. You'll also handle required information return filings; experience with cross-border or foreign-payee tax reporting is a strong plus. On the systems side, you'll take ownership of day-to-day administration of the organization's expense and AP workflow platform, identify and implement internal control improvements. This organization is well-resourced and genuinely interested in modernizing its finance systems, so if you enjoy thinking about how technology can make a process better rather than just running the process as it exists today, this will be a strong fit. What We're Looking For Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance, CPA preferred. A minimum of five years of progressive accounting experience with solid GAAP knowledge and meaningful audit exposure, additional years preferred. Strong analytical and critical thinking skills, with the confidence to exercise independent judgment on non-routine transactions. Exceptional attention to detail and organization, able to manage multiple deadlines independently. Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work across all levels of an organization. Systems-savvy and proficient in Microsoft Office, with hands-on experience in a modern cloud-based accounting or ERP system (Sage Intacct experience a strong plus). Why This Role This organization offers real stability: a tenured, collaborative team, and a culture that genuinely values thoughtful, forward-looking finance professionals. Benefits include a strong employer retirement contribution, comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, generous combined vacation and sick leave, and additional perks that reflect a workplace that invests in its people.
