Job description

We are partnering with a well‑established retail and wholesale brand to find a Staff Accountant who will take full ownership of its Accounts Receivable function. This is a hands‑on role for someone who likes responsibility. You will run AR day to day while working closely with a collaborative finance team and cross‑training across general accounting, so it is a strong fit for anyone who wants to deepen their broader accounting exposure over time.

What makes this opportunity unique is the full ownership of AR, with the balance across general accounting and monthly GL work. It will suit someone who genuinely enjoys AR work and wants to keep building from there.

What you will own

• The full AR cycle: invoicing for wholesale accounts, cash application, customer credits, chargebacks, and reconciliations
• AR aging and collections, acting as the main point of contact for AR queries with both internal and external contacts
• Reconciling the AR subledger to the general ledger and resolving discrepancies
• Setting up and maintaining wholesale customer accounts in the ERP, and processing credit card, wire, ACH, and foreign exchange payments
• Coordinating with warehouses to release paid orders, and partnering with Wholesale, E‑commerce, and Operations to resolve billing, collection, and return issues

Where you will stretch

• Supporting month and year‑end close, including journal entries, account analysis, and supporting schedules
• Bank and balance sheet reconciliations across accounts such as prepaids, gift cards, and petty cash
• Intercompany entries, maintaining the fixed asset subledger, and driving process improvement across AR and accounting

What we are looking for

• A Bachelor's degree in Accounting. This is a firm requirement, so please only apply if you hold one.
• At least 3 years of accounting experience, with strong and demonstrable AR exposure
• A solid grounding in double‑entry accounting, bank reconciliations, and balance sheet reconciliations
• Wholesale experience, which is essential for this role
• Strong Excel skills and comfort working in an ERP environment. RLM and Shopify experience are a plus. CPA is a plus.
• A warm, confident communicator who is positive, personable, and easy to deal with for customers and colleagues alike
