**Job Title & Location** **Remote Staff Accountant (Remote)** Location: Remote — flexible hours around **Terre Haute, Indiana** We’re hiring a Staff Accountant right now because our recent Series B round added $45 million to the balance sheet, and the accounting engine needs fresh hands to keep the books clean as we launch three new product lines over the next six months. --- ### The Reality of This Role If you walk into our virtual “open‑door” meeting tomorrow, you’ll hear the hum of a finance team that grew from five to twelve members in just 10 months. We’re a B2B SaaS company headquartered in **Terre Haute, Indiana**, but 80 % of our staff work from home across the U.S. The moment you log into our Slack channel, you’ll see the same spreadsheet that a colleague in **Terre Haute** just updated, the same QuickBooks Online dashboard that a teammate in **Terre Haute, Indiana** is reconciling, and the same deadline clock ticking down to the next month‑end close. Your day‑to‑day will be a blend of routine and surprise. The routine part: posting weekly journal entries, reconciling bank feeds, and monitoring cash flow forecasts that keep our CFO from pulling his hair out. The surprise part: a sudden request from product to model the financial impact of a pricing experiment, or a quick dive into a newly‑imported data set from our sales ops team for a month‑end variance analysis. Why now? Our growth to $120 million ARR has outpaced our accounting capacity. The new product suite we’re rolling out in **Terre Haute** adds three revenue streams, each with its own recognition rules, so we need someone who can untangle the complexity without breaking a sweat. You’ll report to the Finance Manager, who sits in a co‑working space just a short drive from downtown **Terre Haute**, and you’ll partner daily with the senior controller, the senior analyst, and a part‑time payroll specialist who lives in **Terre Haute, Indiana**. Our collaboration style is deliberately async — we respect that you might be working in a different time zone, but we’ll always have a 30‑minute “watercooler” Zoom at 9 a.m. **Terre Haute** time to keep the rhythm. --- ### What You’ll Actually Do - **Own** the full month‑end close process for the three new product lines, hitting a 3‑day turnaround on the first 90 days. - **Prepare** and file quarterly sales tax returns for all 50 U.S. states, ensuring we stay under the 2 % audit risk threshold we set last year. - **Reconcile** daily cash accounts in QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, and Xero, flagging any discrepancy larger than $2,500 within the same business day. - **Partner** with the billing ops team to validate the $1.2 million recurring revenue pipeline, using Power BI dashboards to surface any variance greater than 5 %. - **Build** a cash‑flow forecast model in Excel that runs on a rolling 13‑month basis, updating it every Friday by 5 p.m. **Terre Haute** time. - **Run** the monthly payroll run via ADP and Gusto for a staff of 60, including the two contractors based in **Terre Haute, Indiana**. - **Validate** intercompany transactions using Sage Intacct, making sure the $850 k internal loan to the marketing team is fully amortized each quarter. - **Provide** detailed variance analysis for the senior leadership team, turning raw data into a 5‑page narrative that highlights any drift from the $15 million operating budget. - **Assist** the external audit firm during the annual audit, delivering all requested schedules within the 48‑hour window they set. - **Mentor** junior accountants (currently a three‑person team) on best practices for journal entry reviews, reducing rework time by 22 % over the last quarter. - **Automate** routine journal entries using Zapier scripts that move data from our salesforce export to NetSuite, cutting manual effort by roughly 12 hours each month. - **Collaborate** with the compliance officer in **Terre Haute** to ensure all expense reimbursements meet the new 2024 SOC 2 controls. --- ### Skills That Truly Matter **Must‑haves** - 3–5 years of public‑company accounting experience, preferably SaaS or subscription‑based. - Proficiency in QuickBooks Online **and** NetSuite; at least one year of hands‑on Xero is a plus. - Advanced Excel (pivot tables, Power Query, VBA) – we expect you to build at least one macro per month. - Experience with SaaS revenue recognition (ASC 606) and subscription billing cycles. - Strong written communication – you’ll be drafting monthly close notes that the CFO reads. **Nice‑to‑haves** - Familiarity with Sage Intacct or Oracle Financials. - Exposure to Power BI or Tableau for financial reporting. - CPA or CMA designation (not mandatory, but valued). - Prior remote work experience – we love people who can thrive without a cubicle. - Ability to speak the language of developers (SQL basics) when you need to pull data from our data warehouse. --- ### Standout Extras - Published a “Financial Modeling for SaaS Startups” guide that earned 3,200 downloads on
