  • Prepare journal entries, reconcile accounts, and contribute to monthly close activities to support reliable period-end reporting.
  • Compile and review monthly financial statements, researching variances and resolving inconsistencies as they arise.
  • Record billing activity, expenses, and other financial transactions in QuickBooks Online on a consistent weekly basis.
  • Review bank activity for checking and savings accounts and complete reconciliations to maintain cash accuracy.
  • Track purchase orders, reimbursements, and operating expenses to support internal reporting and financial oversight.
  • Coordinate with a third-party accounting provider to assist with close processes and the preparation of recurring financial reports.
  • Develop monthly reporting summaries and presentation materials for leadership and board-level review.
  • Support payroll processing and related reconciliations while assisting with finance committee reporting needs.
  • Identify opportunities to improve accounting procedures and help reinforce effective financial controls and documentation practices.
