Job Title: Senior Accountant & Accounting Operations Manager (Remote Independent Contractor)
Role Overview
We are looking for a highly organized, self-driven Senior Accountant / Accounting Operations Manager to run our day-to-day financial workflows for our Print-on-Demand business. In this role, you will own our transactional data and independently execute the vast majority of our month-end closing process in QuickBooks Online (plus the company’s proprietary inventory management software) so that it is nearly complete before being handed off to our Controller.
Additionally, you will act as the accounting and tax team's central traffic controller — managing our offshore Accounts Payable function, staying ahead of every tax deadline (you own the deadlines; the tax preparers own the tax expertise), and taking full ownership of processing company mail. You will report directly to our CFO with a dotted line to the Company’s owners.
