• Complete balance sheet reconciliations for asset and liability accounts, track open items, and maintain clear backup for all reconciled balances.

• Partner with hotel operations teams to answer accounting questions, explain financial impacts, and provide guidance on coding or transaction issues.

• Assist with revenue-related accounting tasks, including daily posting support and corrections when transactions require adjustment.

• Work with internal departments to resolve accounting exceptions and help ensure accounts payable and revenue activity are recorded in a timely manner.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related discipline.
• At least 2 years of accounting experience, which may include internships or other hands-on accounting exposure.
• Working knowledge of accrual accounting and the fundamentals of general ledger activity.
• Experience assisting with journal entries, reconciliations, and month-end close responsibilities.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and comfort working with detailed financial data.
• Strong organizational skills with a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
