Job Summary

We're looking for a detail-oriented Staff Accountant to support the day-to-day accounting operations of the business. This role handles the transactional backbone of our finances—accounts payable and receivable, billing, reconciliations, and month-end close support—while gaining exposure to multi-state operations, subcontractor management, and Medicaid billing. You'll work closely with the accounting and operations teams and have a clear path to grow your responsibilities over time.

Key Responsibilities

• Process accounts payable, including subcontractor invoices, vendor bills, and expense entries, ensuring proper coding, approval, and documentation.
• Support accounts receivable and billing, including preparing and submitting invoices to MCOs and other payers and tracking outstanding balances.
• Reconcile bank accounts, credit cards, and general ledger accounts on a regular basis.
• Assist with month-end and year-end close activities, including journal entries and account analysis.
• Help maintain accurate records in our accounting system and keep supporting documentation organized and audit-ready.
• Assist with vendor and subcontractor setup, W-9 collection, and 1099 preparation.
• Support sales tax and multi-state compliance tasks under the guidance of senior accounting staff.
• Research and help resolve billing, payment, and account discrepancies.
• Prepare reports and schedules to support management and financial reporting.
• Contribute to improving accounting processes and documentation as the company grows.
• Support materials ordering and other operations functions as needed.

Qualifications

• Prior accounting or bookkeeping experience (internship, part-time, or full-time).
• Solid understanding of basic accounting principles (debits/credits, the general ledger, accruals).
• Comfortable working in accounting software and spreadsheets; able to learn new systems quickly.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy, with good organizational habits.
• Able to manage multiple tasks and deadlines while keeping work well documented.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, and comfort working with vendors, subcontractors, and internal teams.
• A reliable, trustworthy approach to handling confidential financial and client information.

Nice to Have

• Exposure to construction, contracting, home services, or healthcare/Medicaid billing.
• Experience with cloud-based accounting platforms (e.g., Xero).
• Familiarity with accounts payable/receivable workflows in a multi-entity or multi-state environment.
• Working knowledge of Excel functions such as formulas, filtering, and pivot tables.

Why Join Us

• Broad exposure across the full accounting cycle, not just one narrow function.
• A growing company where your work has visible impact and room to advance.
• Mission-driven work that helps people stay safe and independent at home.
• A collaborative team that will invest in your development.
