Job description

Compensation:

~$100K Base + up to 15% Bonus + 15% Retirement Contribution + Phantom Carry

We are partnering with a premier, highly established venture capital firm to add a Staff Accountant to their internal operations team.

The Opportunity:

This is a rare, golden opportunity to break into the venture capital and investment management space without needing prior VC experience.

This is not a fund accounting role. Instead, you will be a key player in their management company accounting function, reporting directly to the VP of Finance. You will join a remarkably stable, tight-knit, and low-turnover team that offers a polished finance environment, generous benefits, and a long-term platform for career growth.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Core Accounting: Own the quarterly close for the management company in QuickBooks, maintaining cash ledgers, and executing bank reconciliations across multiple accounts.


• Cash & Payables: Manage the AP process, bill processing, vendor payments, and expense reviews using tools like Expensify, Ramp, and Bill.com.


• Treasury Support: Handle highly sensitive cash movements, including verbally confirming wire instructions, initiating outgoing wires, managing LOC draws, and tracking inter-company payables/receivables.


• Cross-Functional Support: Assist the CFO and VP of Finance with ad-hoc requests, capital calls, and cash distributions.

The Ideal Profile:

• Experience: 2+ years of solid operational accounting experience (though we are very open to more seasoned Staff Accountants looking for a stable, high-quality home).


• Tech Stack: Strong proficiency in QuickBooks/QBO, Excel, and AP/expense platforms (Bill.com, Expensify, Ramp).


• Attention to Detail: You must be incredibly reliable and detail-oriented, especially when it comes to managing cash ledgers, wires, and multiple bank accounts.


• Communication: Professional, personable, and able to interact seamlessly with high-touch internal stakeholders and executives.


• Culture Fit: A collaborative, dependable, "startup/small-company" mentality. You thrive in a lean team where there are lots of moving parts.

The Perks:

Beyond a competitive base and bonus, this firm offers a discretionary retirement contribution of up to 15% of your total comp (after one year), discretionary phantom carry based on investment exits, 100% covered health/dental/vision/life insurance for you and your family, plus free parking and onsite lunches!
