Job Description
Our non-profit client in Concord is seeking an interim Accounting Manager/Controller for a 3+ month engagement.

Responsibilities:
- Lead the month-end close cycle from planning through final review, making sure financial records are complete, accurate, and finalized on schedule
- Review key accounting entries and reconciliation work to maintain integrity across the general ledger and related balances
- Manage core accounting functions, including fixed assets, property-related accounting, and ongoing oversight of the organization's books
- Produce financial statements and other recurring or ad hoc reports for leadership, ensuring information is timely and dependable
- Maintain a strong control environment that protects organizational assets and supports proper tracking of revenue, expenses, and program funding
- Coordinate audit preparation by assembling schedules, supporting documentation, and reconciliations, while addressing auditor questions and resolving outstanding items promptly
- Serve as a financial advisor to program and property stakeholders by translating accounting data into practical guidance for decision-making
- Oversee grant-related financial reporting for government, corporate, and foundation funding sources, with attention to compliance and accuracy
- Establish and refine accounting procedures, documentation, and standard workflows to improve consistency, efficiency, and scalability across the finance function
- Coach and lead the accounting team, fostering accountability, focused growth, and a collaborative service-oriented culture
