Job description

Accounting Manager / Controller

Location: South Florida (Hybrid)

Company: AirSlice

Pay: $50.00 - $90.00 per hour

About AirSlice

AirSlice is a growing dynamic aviation company dedicated to providing top-tier service to our aircraft owners. We prioritize safety, efficiency, and owner satisfaction, ensuring an exceptional travel experience from takeoff to landing.

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly detail-oriented, systems-minded finance professional to establish and manage our accounting infrastructure. This individual will own day-to-day accounting while building the processes, controls, and reporting frameworks typically found in more mature organizations. You will operate at the intersection of bookkeeping and controllership, executing transactions while designing the system those transactions live in. Aviation experience is a plus, but not required. We need someone who has managed financials for a small, dynamic business and is eager to learn.

Key Responsibilities

• Select, implement, and maintain accounting software (QuickBooks, NetSuite, or equivalent)
• Design a chart of accounts tailored to aviation operations (fuel, maintenance, leases, crew costs, etc.)
• Establish workflows for AR, AP, payroll, and general ledger
• Build scalable processes from scratch
• Create and enforce billing procedures (contracts, invoicing cycles, collections)
• Ensure accurate revenue recognition aligned with services rendered

Qualifications

• 6 - 12 years of experience in bookkeeping, accounting, or early-stage finance roles
• Demonstrated experience setting up accounting systems from scratch (non-negotiable)
• Strong understanding of GAAP fundamentals
• Proficiency in QuickBooks, NetSuite, or comparable platforms
• Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills
• Experience in aviation, logistics, or asset-heavy industries is a strong plus
• CPA or CMA is a plus, not a requirement

Why This Role Matters

If this role is done poorly, the company bleeds money and leadership flies blind. If done well, this becomes the backbone of a scalable, investable aviation business.

Benefits

• Opportunity to grow into a full time position
• Competitive salary equity potential
• Flexible schedule
• Remote-friendly / work from home

License/Certification

• Driver's License (Required)
• CPA (optional but recommended)
