Job Description

Accounting Manager overseeing multi-entity accounting operations for clean energy capital platform. Collaborating with Controller and CFO to build scalable accounting function for growth.

Responsibilities:

  • Partner on the monthly close process across multiple entities — making sure the numbers actually tie (cash, intercompany, and everything else)
  • Prepare and review balance sheets and P&Ls, and flag what looks off on your own read
  • Investigate variances and resolve reconciling items, especially in cash and intercompany
  • Help build and maintain intercompany processes across entities so they stay clean as entity count and volume grow
  • Track and reconcile intercompany balances
  • Support allocation of shared expenses in a consistent, defensible way
  • Own and improve expense coding workflows (Ramp and related tools) and fix inefficiencies as you find them
  • Think about how to automate or streamline workflows, balancing what’s realistic with the tools we have today
  • Support implementation of better systems and processes over time
  • Own the rhythm of entity compliance across all entities — recurring filings like annual reports, franchise taxes, property tax, 1099s, and state registrations — so nothing gets forgotten until it’s late
  • Handle one-off items as they come up: new state registrations, entity formations or dissolutions, beneficial ownership filings, and supporting documentation for banks, lenders, and auditors
  • Partner with legal and tax when filings require outside input, and keep ownership of items that aren’t on a set calendar yet
  • Partner with the Controller on audit preparation and PBC, including pulling schedules, responding to auditor requests, and keeping workpapers organized across entities
  • Work with tax and audit partners to make sure deliverables are accurate and timely
  • Hold external partners accountable — review their work, catch issues, and push for quality and timeliness

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of accounting experience, including ownership (or co-ownership) of month-end close at a venture-backed or high-growth company
  • Multi-entity experience — you have worked across more than one legal entity and understand intercompany mechanics and shared service allocations
  • Familiarity with entity-level compliance — annual reports, franchise taxes, property tax, 1099s, state registrations, and the general rhythm of keeping multiple entities in good standing
  • Has participated in at least one financial statement audit cycle from the company side (not as the auditor)
  • Strong working knowledge of a modern accounting stack: Ramp or a peer spend management tool, a real ERP (Rillet, NetSuite, Sage Intacct), and solid spreadsheet skills
  • Strong judgment on accuracy vs. speed — knows what must be right and what must be done
  • Able to get the details right (recons, tie-outs) while also improving the underlying process so the same issue doesn’t recur next month
  • Willingness to challenge things that aren’t working and help fix them, professionally
  • Comfort operating in a dynamic, high-growth environment with evolving priorities
  • Strong interest in leveraging technology and AI day to day.

Benefits:

  • We cover 100% of premiums for employees with a variety of plans on Aetna (nationwide) and Kaiser (WA and California) and subsidize 70% for dependents (total as a group), if relevant.
  • We cover 100% of premiums for employees and 50% for dependents (each), if relevant.
  • 10 company holidays per year.
  • 20 days per year.
  • We support a 401k account but don’t have a matching program set up at this time (typical for an early-stage startup).
  • 16 weeks for birthing parents and 12 weeks for non-birthing parents.
