• Administer multi-state payroll activities and help ensure related tax reporting is completed accurately and on schedule.

• Record and review accounting activity by preparing journal entries, reconciling accounts, and maintaining reliable financial data.

• Assist with monthly and annual close procedures to support accurate reporting and overall financial readiness.

• Provide broader accounting support during slower tax periods, including bookkeeping oversight and transaction review across the organization.

Salary Range: $80,000 - $125,000

Benefits: Full suite of benefits offered including Medical/Dental/Vision insurance, 401k with a match, PTO and Paid holidays, a flexible hybrid schedule and more!

• Working knowledge of multi-state tax rules and compliance requirements.

• Ability to succeed in a small business setting where priorities may span tax, accounting, and operational support.
