What You’ll Own

• Close Support: Complete assigned close checklist tasks on schedule and flag issues early.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: 4+ years of accounting experience, including month-end close tasks and account reconciliations.

• US client exposure: Experience supporting US companies or clients is an advantage, whether in-house or through a BPO, outsourced accounting firm, shared services center, or public accounting firm.

• Accounting standards: Working knowledge of US GAAP, or strong PFRS fundamentals and the ability to learn US GAAP quickly.

• Technical depth: Solid accrual accounting fundamentals and strong attention to detail.

• Tools: Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills and experience working in an accounting system.

• Good English communication: Confidence working directly with US finance teams in writing and on calls.

Good to Have

• Experience with QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Xero, Sage Intacct, or similar accounting systems.

• Philippine CPA (PRC-licensed), or a CPA board exam in progress; strong non-CPA candidates are encouraged to apply.

• Experience with tools such as Bill.com, Ramp, Gusto, or Expensify.

• Audit or public practice background.
