Full Job Description
About the Role:

If you bring ops chops, a systems mindset, and the ability to see the forest for the trees - this role is built for you.

We are looking for a Senior Accountant with ambition - someone who is wired towards process improvement, runs highly efficient, world class back-office systems, and brings real energy to operations.

You will drive the full cycle expense management function - Accounts Payable, corporate spend, people expenses, and the dashboards that help close the books efficiently and keep leadership informed. This is a hands-on role, and you'll also be expected to step back and tell the story of what the data is showing. High-volume task management, sharp reporting instincts, and a bias for process improvement and automation are your superpowers.

This role is a great fit for someone who has hands-on ops experience in a high-growth SaaS and/or remote environment, is energized by growth opportunities, ownership and improvement, and is excited to grow with Consensus.

What You'll Do:

Expense Operations

  • Drive the Expense Ops and AP Health Dashboards: maintain and improve reporting that gives leadership real-time visibility into payables health, spend exceptions, and policy compliance status
  • Own full cycle Accounts Payable operations: vendor onboarding, bill review, payment batch management, aging review, and escalations
  • Run multi-platform payroll entry and preparation
  • Reconcile and manage people expenses on our GL and the integrations that support it
  • Manage corporate card and spend workflows, including weekly CC review and sync, GL coding accuracy, policy enforcement, and exception reporting
  • Champion tool utilization across tech stack - ensuring the tech stack works as hard as the team and surfaces the right data at the right time
  • Drive continuous improvement across AP and expense workflows-identifying automation opportunities, eliminating manual touchpoints, and leveraging AI tools to build a leaner, more resilient back office


Month-End Close & GL Expense Management

  • Own GL expense account management within the close cycle such as: accruals, prepaid releases, reimbursement entries, allocation JEs, and workpaper completion
  • Coordinate with the Director of Accounting to ensure all expense-side close deliverables are completed on schedule


Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

  • Serve as a guide within the accounting team, providing day-to-day review and feedback to staff accountants
  • Exemplify Consensus values
  • Own process documentation and workflow standards that create consistency, reduce error rates, and free up team capacity for higher-value work


What We're Looking For:

Required

  • 3+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • High growth SaaS or B2B software industry background
  • Deep hands-on experience with AP, Payroll and Expense Ops
  • Strong GL and month-end close experience with direct ownership of reconciliations and journal entries
  • Proven ability to manage high-volume, recurring task workflows with precision, consistency, and accountability
  • Exceptional organizational and self-management skills
  • Routine and repeatable incorporation of AI tools to improve workflow efficiency
  • Demonstrated ability to build and maintain operational dashboards and reporting deliverables (AP health, expense ops, GL pulse)


Bonus Points

  • NetSuite experience
  • Public accounting experience
  • CPA or equivalent designation


Join Consensus and enjoy a robust benefits package designed with your well-being in mind:

  • Health & Wellness: Benefit from a generous employer contribution towards health insurance, with a variety of plans that include dental and vision coverage. Enjoy employer contributions to your HSA, and take advantage of HSA/FSA programs to maximize your tax savings.
  • Retirement Ready: Secure your future with our 401(k) plan featuring company-matching contributions.
  • Family First: We offer paid parental leave, so you can prioritize what matters most-your family.
  • Work-Life Balance: Enjoy unlimited PTO and 12 company holidays to recharge and refresh. Celebrate your birthday with a day off, and enjoy Flex Fridays, where every third Friday of the month is yours to unwind.
  • Flexible Work Options: Work in a flexible, remote environment that suits your lifestyle, with a top-tier WFH setup provided when you join.
  • Grow with Us: Participate in our professional development program to expand your skills and advance your career.
  • Give Back: Make a difference in your community with two paid volunteer days each year at a charity of your choice.


The pay range for this role is:

95,000 - 105,000 USD per year (Remote (United States))
