Job description

We’re the premier, remote accounting, tax, and consulting firm built exclusively to serve the craft brewing industry.

Our mission is to help breweries make profit. And our team is filled with expert, autonomous, adaptable, high performers.

Are you up for the challenge?

We're looking for a full-time, remote Brewery Accounting Associate to join our specialized team. The main objective of this role is to support the day-to-day bookkeeping needs of our brewery clients in accordance with the SBS Core Values.

About The Role

This role will report to our Brewery Accounting Manager and is accountable for fulfilling the following responsibilities:

• AP processing in Bill.com and Quickbooks Online. In the primary function of this role, you’ll work alongside the Brewery Accountants on your team to process all inbound invoices, receipts, credit memos, and other documentation for our brewery clients.
• QBO Banking screen transaction processing. Additionally, you’ll be responsible for processing the banking screen in QBO for your brewery clients each week. This includes but is not limited to: matching transactions, entering payroll, and maintaining both bank and POS syncs.
• Some full monthly close work. As you progress and learn, you’ll have the opportunity to take on full monthly close responsibility for some of our clients under the direction of your manager and your Brewery Accountant teammates. This includes but is not limited to: reconciliation, accruals, sales and excise tax filing prep, journal entry adjustments, and monthly close final review.
• Participate and contribute to the overall success of our team. Each week the team meets to share wins, progress, and knowledge, as well as identify and solve issues at multiple levels (company, team, individual). Your full participation in this process is critical to ensure that we are operating as a cohesive, high-performance unit.

About You

We’re looking for an individual who:

• Enjoys consistency and finds no task too small. You’ll be working with a regular set of clients week-in and week-out, anticipating needs and enjoying a consistent workflow. From matching receipts to reconciling daily sales, you understand the importance of every detail and embrace each aspect of this essential support role with diligence and professionalism.
• Embraces technology and learning. Rather than someone with a specialized skill set or a long resume of accomplishments, the person who is the best fit for this role is, at their core, someone who embraces new challenges, has an open mind, and is growth oriented. Where you may lack experience, you make up for it with determination, a willingness to learn, and the ability to seamlessly navigate technology and processes once you have the basics down.
• Is an organized manager of one and a team player. You’re an expert at autonomous time management, routines, organization and the ability to communicate effectively with our clients. You take ownership in what you do, deliver on your commitments independently, but are also an enthusiastic participant in our team dynamic.

About Our Culture

We’re fully remote, with team members and clients located all across the U.S. and have developed our own unique culture we call The SBS Way, within which we operate, evaluate performance, and make decisions using our core values as a guide:

• Be Antifragile. Everything we do is an opportunity for learning and continuous improvement.
• Play The Long Game. We make decisions in the long-term interest of our firm, our clients, and our industry.
• Act as A Team of Experts. We willingly collaborate and provide feedback to develop ourselves and deliver exceptional results for our clients.

Working At SBS

What it’s like working at our firm:

• High flexibility. We don’t have time sheets, don’t track hours, and leave it to each team member to determine the best way to complete their work. Your schedule is yours to make.
• High accountability. We measure and manage to our client deliverable performance metrics and ensure each team member takes ownership over their accomplishment with a high level of quality. You own your results.
• Great pay for great work. We pay based on the characteristics that matter: position (and its market value), level of mastery, and productive output for our clients. You'll be compensated well and can focus on great work.
• Performance bonuses. Beyond the base salary compensation for each role, individuals who go above and beyond to achieve a higher level of productivity and contribution to our goals will be eligible to receive significant additional performance-based compensation.
• Generous benefits. We offer a generous benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance enrollment; as well as an IRA match, tech stipend, 3 weeks of paid time off, and parental leave.
• Merit-based career progression. We have clearly established career tracks, performance benchmarks, and mastery levels set for all of our core positions, with a quarterly review and promotion consideration cycle in place to evaluate your progress. Your progress is under your control.
• Personal and and team development. Beyond our continuous learning focus, we also provide support for personal development in the form of expense coverage for continuing education (books, courses, training, certifications, etc.) as well as experiential learning (brewery visits, industry events and conferences, etc.). Each year we also meet in person for an all-expenses-paid annual retreat as a team.
