Job Description
QuickBooks Online:
AP, AR, cash application, vendor management, and general ledger maintenance. Prepare and post journal entries including accruals, prepaids, depreciation, payroll, and recurring allocations. Process payroll journal entries and reconcile payroll data from Uzio to the general ledger. Perform bank, credit card, and cash reconciliations across all locations. Maintain the chart of accounts and ensure consistent, accurate coding across all locations and business units. Manage vendor onboarding, W-9 collection, payment scheduling, and 1099 preparation. Month-End Close Own and execute the month-end close calendar with a hard commitment: books closed and financials delivered within 7 business days of month end. Prepare full balance sheet reconciliations with supporting schedules for every material account. Identify and resolve reconciling items before close, not after. Continuously tighten the process. Document what is manual, standardize or automate what can be, and protect the 7-day timeline as the business grows. Financial Analysis and Reporting Produce monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statements consolidated and by location and business unit. Deliver variance analysis against budget and prior period with written commentary that explains the drivers, not just the deltas. Build and maintain recurring reporting for leadership: revenue, gross margin, discount impact, labor, inventory turns, and shrink. Support annual budgeting, forecasting, and rolling cash flow projections. Model pricing, promotion, and discount scenarios and quantify margin impact before decisions are made. Inventory and Cost Accounting Own inventory accounting and COGS across cultivation, manufacturing, and retail. Reconcile inventory between Leafnet, our seed-to-sale and point-of-sale platform, and the general ledger. Investigate and resolve variances. Support standard costing for cultivated and manufactured products, including transfer pricing between business units. Analyze shrink, waste, and product loss, and partner with operations on corrective action. Compliance and Controls (with CFO guidance and training) Support state and local tax filings, cannabis excise tax, and New Mexico regulatory reporting. Learn and apply COGS allocation methodology and 280E documentation standards under CFO direction. Maintain internal controls over cash handling, inventory, and segregation of duties in a cash-intensive, multi-location environment. Prepare workpapers and supporting schedules for external CPAs, tax preparers, and auditors. Document accounting processes and maintain current SOPs. Qualifications Required Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. 3 or more years of full cycle accounting experience with direct ownership of month-end close. Proficiency in QuickBooks Online, including AP/AR workflows and journal entry preparation.Strong Excel skills:
pivot tables, lookups, and building analysis from raw data exports. Working knowledge of GAAP. Ability to explain financial results clearly to non-financial operators. Intellectual curiosity and willingness to learn a complex, highly regulated industry. Must be 21 or older and able to pass a state-required background check. Preferred Inventory or cost accounting experience in retail, restaurant, CPG, distribution, or manufacturing. Experience in a vertically integrated business with intercompany or interdepartmental cost flows. Multi-location accounting experience. Experience reconciling POS or operational system data to the general ledger. Cannabis industry experience is a plus but is not required. We will train the right person. CPA, CMA, or active progress toward either. What Success Looks Like 30 days: You understand the business, the systems, and the current close process. You complete one close cycle with CFO support and can articulate where the process breaks down. 90 days: You own the close independently and deliver financials within 7 business days with variance commentary. 6 months: Balance sheet accounts reconcile cleanly every month, Leafnet inventory ties to the GL, and leadership has recurring reporting they use to run the business. 12 months: You are fluent in the cannabis-specific accounting requirements and carry them without day-to-day CFO oversight. Why This Role Direct mentorship from a CPA & executive team with real cannabis industry depth. You will build a specialization few accountants have. Full ownership of the close, not a slice of it. Exposure to the entire value chain: cultivation, manufacturing, and retail, all in one set of books. Visibility with leadership and direct influence on how the business is run. About P37 Prohibition 37 is a New Mexico-born, vertically integrated cannabis company with retail locations across the state, indoor and greenhouse cultivation, and manufacturing operations. We are science-forward, quality-obsessed, and growing.Pay:
