Senior Accountant, Finance (Remote - West Coast Only & PST Hours)

THE OPPORTUNITY

We're GR0, one of the most awarded, fastest-growing digital marketing agencies in the country. We've generated over $1B for DTC brands, managed $500M+ in ad spend, and served 1,200+ clients since 2020, and we're not slowing down. We are on the forefront of AI and expanding by the minute with new service lines, new ventures, and new acquisitions. Growth like that runs on a Finance function that is precise, scalable, and trusted, and this role is the foundation it's built on.

We're looking for a Senior Accountant who is as comfortable in QuickBooks as they are exploring what AI can do for finance. You'll own the order-to-cash and bill-pay cycles, P&Ls, and GL coding end-to-end, partnering directly with Finance leadership as we scale. If you want to build best-in-class accounting infrastructure at a top marketing agency on the cutting edge of AI, we want to hear from you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

  • Lead the full month-end and year-end close, including journal entries, accruals, GL and balance sheet reconciliations with supporting schedules, and audit-ready documentation.
  • Maintain the general ledger and ensure accurate transaction classification and coding.
  • Manage our offshore accounting team with the goal of transitioning all accounting operations in-house, owning the handoff end-to-end.
  • Manage the order-to-cash lifecycle, overseeing automated invoicing, reviewing specialized invoicing, and managing AR, the collections process, and DSO.
  • Prepare and analyze monthly P&Ls by department, flagging variances and trends for Finance leadership.
  • Partner with Finance leadership on forecasting, budgeting, financial reporting, and ad hoc analysis.
  • Build and implement AI-driven automation to reduce manual work and improve accuracy as the business scales.
  • Own accounts payable and vendor bill pay in Ramp, leveraging its native AI to keep expenses coded to the right department and reconciled on time.
  • Partner with Finance leadership to design and document accounting policies, internal controls, and procedures, keeping records audit-ready and GAAP-compliant.

HOW WE MEASURE SUCCESS:

  • Books closed, coded, and reconciled within 3-4 business days of month-end close.
  • 98%+ invoice accuracy rate with zero material coding errors monthly.
  • DSO maintained at or below company target through proactive AR management.
  • Zero unresolved reconciliation variances older than 30 days.
  • At least one meaningful AI-driven improvement per quarter that reduces manual effort or improves accuracy.
  • Measurable, QoQ progress transitioning the offshore operations in-house.
  • Steadily declining corrections required from Finance leadership as you take ownership of bookkeeping.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING:

  • 5+ years of accounting experience, ideally in a professional services, agency, or high-growth startup environment.
  • 1+ years of order-to-cash or billing experience, including invoicing, AR, and DSO management at volume.
  • Experience managing onshore and offshore teams across multiple workstreams.
  • Command of full-cycle accounting, including GL coding, reconciliations, and financial statement preparation.
  • Hands-on QuickBooks Online proficiency, ready to dive in on day one.
  • Strong Excel skills; you build reconciliations, trackers, and models without guidance.
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools to automate accounting or billing work you don't just follow the space, you apply it.
  • Experience with Ramp or a similar spend-management platform.
  • A clear communicator who works cross-functionally with Account Management, Operations, and clients on billing matters, often remotely.
  • A meticulous eye, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines without dropping the ball.
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; CPA or progress toward CPA a plus.

WHO YOU ARE:

  • You hold yourself to a high standard of accuracy, you produce numbers leadership can trust without rechecking them.
  • You own processes end-to-end and follow up without being asked, staying accountable without prompting.
  • You have a builder's instinct for AI and automation, you don't wait to be told to find a better way, you go looking for it and build it.
  • You thrive in a fast-moving, often remote environment and adapt quickly when priorities shift.
  • You're driven to grow, and you see this role for what it is: a path toward FP&A and strategic finance as GR0 expands.

Hiring Process:

  • Stage 1 — Recruiter Screen After submitting your application, our People & Culture team will review and reach out to selected candidates.
