Staff Accountant

Why This Opportunity

Build well-rounded accounting experience through hands-on exposure to close, financial reporting, reconciliations, audit support, compliance, and operational accounting. This role offers meaningful responsibility, collaboration with experienced leaders, and the opportunity to continue developing within a stable, mission-driven organization.

About the Company

Our client is a well-established, privately held organization serving a broad member and customer community. The company operates across multiple markets and provides a variety of service-oriented programs.

The organization offers a collaborative, professional environment with strong leadership support and a commitment to its broader mission. This position supports an organization located in Montgomery County and will begin with scheduled onsite onboarding before transitioning to a primarily remote schedule.

About the Staff Accountant Role

The Staff Accountant will support general ledger accounting, financial reporting, reconciliations, and close activities. Reporting to an accounting leader, this position will work closely with a small finance team and collaborate with departments across the organization.

The Staff Accountant will prepare journal entries, maintain account schedules, assist with audits, and support selected compliance and operational accounting activities. This is a strong opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on work, values accuracy, and wants exposure to the full accounting cycle.
