CAREER CONNECTOR

SUMMARY
We are currently working with one of the largest nonprofit senior care providers in the country to identify a Staff Accountant to join their growing team.
 
This organization has a history of continuous growth and expansion with no end in sight. Since 2008, they have either built a new facility from the ground up or acquisitioned a facility, and currently are 3.1K employees strong across multiple states.
 
Their strategy to grow the organization not only lies in their plans to expand their presence and grow the number of job opportunities they can offer within the communities they serve, but also in how they strategically plan for their employees to succeed and advance.
 
In the accounting department, if you have interest in advancing, they have a solid strategy in place to do just that. As a staff accountant, you will be paired with a mentor who will help groom you to the company’s ways of doing and with the intention of preparing you to move up in the company should you have a desire to advance. Ultimately, that goal is to prepare their staff accountants to move into accounting managers roles as those opportunities open internally (should you have interest of course!). Not only is that advancement in the level of work you’ll performing, but also offers the opportunity for a sizeable increase in compensation.
 
This is a direct hire opportunity offering a daylight Monday – Friday schedule and:
•    A competitive base salary with plenty of growth potential to increase responsibility and compensation as you continue to take on additional responsibilities.
•    An above average benefit package. Some highlights include high quality medical, dental, and vision plans with lower than average out of pocket expense to employees and a 403B plan with a company contribution as high as 6.5%.
•    Discretionary bonus potential based on you going above and beyond your core job responsibilities to help with special projects or fill in for another person while they are on an extended leave for example.
•    A holiday bonus based on seniority.
•    Tuition reimbursement, PTO, Holidays, and several other “nice” perks!

POSITION
Here’s the essential duties of the position. And if you’ve done it all, great! But if not, that’s okay too. Did you read the part about being mentored and trained to take on more over time? If you have solid account reconciliation/journal entry/general ledger experience, they plan to teach you the rest.
 
And if using antiquated technology gets you down, no worries. You’ll be pleased to know their general ledger and fixed asset systems rank amongst the best in the biz and their EMR / billing system is the lead system serving their market today.
•    Account reconciliations of the general ledger.
•    Bank reconciliations.
•    Assisting in the monthly closing process.
•    Assisting in preparation of monthly financial statements including journal entries.
•    Involvement in annual audit.
•    Assisting in preparation of annual financial budget and analyzing of monthly budget variations to identify areas requiring attention and areas of possible improvement.
•    Assisting in preparation of annual 990 IRS tax return.
•    Working with department heads and answering questions on financial data.

BASE REQUIREMENTS
•    A bachelor’s degree in accounting would be nice to have but definitely not required - your experience and a few other intangibles are most important. 
•    About three or more years of solid general ledger / account reconciliation / journal entry experience.
•    Strong MS Office (especially in Excel).
•    Pre-employment requirements include a background check, drug screen, and TB test.
