Full Job Description
About the Role

We're seeking a detail-oriented and motivated Senior Accountant to join our team in a unique hybrid role that spans both finance operations and technical accounting. This position is split roughly 50/50 between owning our Accounts Payable function end-to-end and driving key components of the month-end close. It's an ideal opportunity for someone with a strong operational AP background who has had exposure to bank reconciliations and close tasks-and is ready to deepen their technical accounting skill set.

You'll be the go-to owner for the full AP lifecycle-vendor onboarding through payment execution-while also taking on progressively greater responsibility in the close process, including reconciliations, accruals, and supporting schedules. You'll learn directly from seasoned teammates and play a key role on the Accounting team as we scale.

Key Responsibilities

Accounts Payable & Finance Operations (approx. 50%)
• Own the end-to-end Accounts Payable process, including invoice intake, coding, approval

routing, and timely payment execution.
• Manage vendor onboarding, W-9 collection, and vendor master data maintenance; support

annual 1099 reporting.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for vendor inquiries, resolving discrepancies with speed,

accuracy, and care.
• Reconcile vendor statements and monitor AP aging; investigate and resolve outstanding items.
• Manage corporate card and employee expense workflows, ensuring policy compliance and

proper coding.
• Identify and drive process improvements and automation opportunities across the AP function.

Month-End Close & Technical Accounting (approx. 50%)
• Execute assigned month-end close tasks, including journal entries for accrued liabilities, prepaid

expenses, and expense accruals tied to AP cutoff.
• Prepare bank reconciliations and balance sheet reconciliations, investigating and resolving

reconciling items.
• Ensure complete and accurate AP cutoff at period end, including accrual of unrecorded

liabilities.
• Assist in preparing monthly, quarterly, and annual reporting requirements.
• Support the year-end audit process by preparing schedules, reconciliations, and documentation

as needed.
• Maintain accurate financial records and ensure compliance with accounting standards and

internal policies.

Qualifications
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (CPA or progress toward CPA a plus).
• 3-6 years of relevant experience, with a strong operational Accounts Payable background.
• Hands-on exposure to bank reconciliations and month-end close tasks, with a desire to grow

into deeper technical accounting work.
• Solid understanding of the full procure-to-pay cycle and accrual-basis accounting fundamentals.
• Excellent organizational abilities and high attention to detail.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills; ability to respond to vendor and internal

inquiries with speed, accuracy, and care.
• Proficiency with accounting software (AP automation tools a plus) and Excel.

What Makes You a Great Fit
• Operator's Mindset, Accountant's Rigor-You take pride in running a tight, efficient AP

operation while holding yourself to the precision standards of technical accounting.
• Financial Curiosity & Growth Orientation-You're eager to expand beyond AP into the close

process, learning complex accounting structures and building toward full-cycle ownership.
• Exceptional Communication & Clarity-You articulate financial information clearly, and you

build rapport easily with vendors, teammates, and stakeholders across the business.
• Grace Under Pressure-You maintain composure and focus when managing payment runs,

close deadlines, and unexpected challenges, even when the heat is on.
• Beyond the Ledger Mentality-You're excited to get out from behind the numbers, contributing

insights to process and business decisions and acting as a key partner to various departments.
• Multi-tasking and Follow-Through-You manage competing AP and close priorities

simultaneously, seeing every payment, reconciliation, and journal entry through to a complete,

accurate outcome.
• A Positive, Coachable Mindset-You welcome feedback, are naturally curious about process

improvement, and are committed to continuous professional growth.

What's in It for You?
• Career growth: A clear path to broaden from finance operations into technical accounting-

you'll be a key member of the Accounting team as we scale.
• Equity ownership: All teammates receive stock options.
• Coaching and mentorship: You'll learn directly from seasoned teammates who will provide

hands-on training and help you navigate key rules and processes.

Employee Benefits

We strive to anticipate your needs in order for you to be a healthy, motivated, and happy team member. We provide a variety of competitive benefits including (but not limited to):
  • Equity Ownership: All teammates receive stock options-we win together
  • Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision plans for you and your dependents with some plans 100% covered
  • Work-life balance and a generous paid time off policy
  • In order to support teammates who become parents, Tomo Mortgage provides paid parental leave
