About Hampton Nonprofit Management

Saving the world, one spreadsheet at a time

We are a referral-only boutique consulting firm that provides CFO / COO / Executive Director support and ongoing management services to nonprofit and mission-based organizations in San Diego and Southern California. We specialize in all the boring things ( finance, accounting, HR, operations ) that make magic and mission possible. We are in the weeds, in the board rooms, at the fundraising lunches and at the strategic planning retreats. We believe in high touch, deep impact engagements that generate meaningful and tangible results of quality that surprise clients and leads to a robust referral pipeline.

Founded in 2019, we currently have forty five ongoing nonprofit clients, have provided excellent service to close to one hundred organizations since inception, and continue to grow.

About The Position

As Senior Accountant, you’ll provide advanced accounting support for multiple accounts. You will handle complex accounting processes, lead month-end close, support financial reporting and analysis, and serve as a resource to both clients and internal staff.

This position bridges the gap between Accountant and Controller, providing advanced accounting oversight without the broader advisory and forecasting duties of the Controller role.

Responsibilities

General Accounting

You will keep a clean general ledger for our clients, with timely and accurate journal entries, AP, AR, bank and credit card transactions

Monthly Close

You will ensure that books are accurate, complete, and reconciled each month

Occasionally you’ll help make heads or tails of a big giant complicated excel workbook and support the data entry needed for it all to make sense

Support for Accountant Team

You will be a resource for junior accounting members of our team and on-site client accountants where your guidance will reinforce technical best-practices and company policies

Mission Minded

With an understanding of what really matters to our clients, you will make decisions that prioritize mission returns and programmatic impact

Customer Service

You will become a trusted, valued, and liked member of client management teams

Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field required.
• 2+ years of progressive accounting experience.
• Nonprofit accounting experience strongly preferred.
• Strong understanding of GAAP.
• Customer service focused with great communication, both internally and with our clients
• Ability to simultaneously self-manage multiple priorities and overlapping deadlines
• Ability to take initiative and solve problems independently
• Personal drive to make a meaningful difference in your community

In this position you will get tons of hands-on experience in real-world situations with multiple clients, benefit from one-on-one career development with one of San Diego’s most sought-after nonprofit executives, and experience professional growth in multiples versus what you would see a traditional nonprofit job.

Work / Life Balance

Remote first, with a flexible 35/hours per week and unlimited vacation
