Stacey Sims

Managing Director, Executive Recruiting - Creative Financial Staffing

  • Remote (DMV area only)
  • Salary: $85,000 – $100,000 + excellent benefits

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • This is more than just another GL role — it's a chance to own the month-end close, drive financial systems improvements, and build cross-functional partnerships across finance, operations, and procurement.
  • You'll join a mission-focused organization making a global impact — all while enjoying real work/life balance and a people-first culture.
  • Amazing perks include:
    • Generous paid time off (vacation, sick, personal, volunteer, plus your anniversary day!)
    • 95% employer-paid medical, 100% paid dental, and a 10% 401(k) contribution
    • Quarterly salary increases and performance-based bonuses
    • Flexible remote schedule (must live in the DC, MD, or VA area for occasional onsite events)
  • The finance department is stable, collaborative, and known for recognizing above-and-beyond contributions — with a clear path for growth
  • You’ll report to a supportive Director of Finance who values initiative, autonomy, and continuous improvement
Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the general ledger process, including journal entries, reconciliations, and month/year-end close
  • Maintain and improve the chart of accounts, accrual schedules, and internal controls
  • Play a key role in financial systems optimization (especially Workday ERP) and reporting enhancements
  • Support audit preparation and act as a liaison for in-country and domestic audit teams
  • Review and release accounts payable entries and manage vendor-related escalations

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of relevant accounting experience, including hands-on GL ownership, month-end close, and reconciliations
  • CPA or advanced degree
  • Experience working with Workday, Concur, and multi-cost center GL environments preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting

Ready to level up your accounting career in a high-impact, remote-friendly environment with real growth potential? Apply now — interviews are moving fast and this role won’t stay open long.
