• Monitor compliance with internal controls and help maintain reliable accounting practices across daily financial processes.

• Prepare recurring grant-related financial reports for federal, state, and local funding sources, reconcile reported amounts to the general ledger, and investigate variances.

• Complete monthly reconciliations for assigned balance sheet accounts to ensure financial statements accurately reflect account activity in accordance with applicable accounting standards.

• File required federal and state financial reports accurately and within deadlines for oversight agencies and funding entities.

• Reconcile the accounts payable subledger to the general ledger and resolve discrepancies in a timely manner.

• Analyze budget-to-actual results for assigned grants, review spending for allowability, and communicate concerns to program leaders to help prevent overages.

Qualifications:

• Background in staff accounting with experience supporting general ledger activity, journal entries, and account reconciliations.
• Knowledge of governmental or nonprofit accounting practices, ideally within a healthcare or human services environment.
• Ability to prepare financial reports, support audits, and manage reporting tied to grants or regulated funding sources.
