Job description

Platform Finance · In Office at Boyce Plaza · Reports to Controller

Is This You...

• Two to four years into public accounting and ready to stop auditing other people's books and start owning your own?
• Someone who wants to see the whole picture of a business, not one section of a work paper.
• Precise, self-directed and a little bit competitive about getting the close done right and done early.
• Interested in lending, real estate and how a family of operating companies fits together.
• Ready for a small company where you will be trusted with a lot, quickly.

About The Role

SteelPoint Capital Holdings is a Pittsburgh based family of companies spanning real estate investment, private capital lending (Loans for Landlords), real estate property management, accounting and advisory services, marketing, and a growing private capital platform. We are scaling quickly, we run on EOS, and we hold ourselves to a standard of institutional quality reporting and controls while keeping the speed and heart of a founder led business.

What You'll Own

Monthly Close Execution

• Prepare and post journal entries, accruals, prepaids, fixed assets and depreciation for SteelPoint Capital and other subsidiary entities.
• Complete balance sheet reconciliations for every account, every month, with support attached.
• Own the close checklist for your entities and hit business day 10 every month.
• Review the bookkeeping Accruity performs for the group and clear exceptions before the Controller's review.

Loan and Investor Accounting

• Reconcile the loan tape to the general ledger monthly: principal, interest income, fees, deferred costs and reserves.
• Reconcile investor notes and distributions to InvestNext.
• Maintain the schedules that support interest income, accrued interest and fee recognition.

Consolidation and Intercompany

• Maintain intercompany accounts across all entities and prepare monthly eliminations.
• Prepare the consolidation work papers and the first draft of consolidated financial statements.
• Investigate and resolve intercompany differences at the source.

Audit Readiness and Technical Accounting

• Build and maintain audit ready work papers: roll forwards, tie outs and support that an outside auditor can follow.
• Draft short technical memos on new transactions and accounting positions for the Controller's review.
• Support the annual review or audit and the tax firm's year end requests.

Systems and Process

• Serve as an administrator in QuickBooks Online: chart of accounts, classes, users and integrations.
• Improve the close every quarter. Automate a recurring task, eliminate a manual reconciliation, shorten a step.
• Use AI tools to draft reconciliation explanations, memos and variance notes and share what works with the team.

Who You Are

• Two to four years in public accounting, ideally audit, at the senior or experienced staff level.
• CPA or actively pursuing it. We will support exam fees and study time.
• Solid US GAAP fundamentals and the ability to research a question and write the answer in a page.
• Strong Excel. QuickBooks Online experience is a plus.
• Detail driven and organized. Predictive Index profiles such as Analyzer, Guardian, Specialist or Scholar are typical of people who thrive in this seat.
• You want to grow into an accounting manager or assistant controller seat and you are willing to earn it.

People who thrive here often come from a Big Four or regional public accounting audit practice with real estate, financial services or private company clients, or from a small company accounting seat where they owned a close early in their career.

Why Join Us

• You will own the books of real operating companies, not a section of someone else's audit.
• You will learn lending, investor and real estate accounting in a single seat.
• Direct mentorship from a Controller and CFO who care about your development.
• CPA support and a clear path to accounting manager.
• Health, dental and vision benefits, retirement benefits, paid time off and a team that will have your back.

Compensation

Base salary of $70,000 to $90,000+ depending on experience, plus a bonus tied to close timeliness and reconciliation quality. CPA exam and licensing support.

Our Core Values

• Let's Go!: We move with urgency and energy. We would rather act, learn and adjust than wait for perfect.
• Extreme Ownership: No excuses, no finger pointing. If it touches your seat, you own the outcome.
• We Got Your Back: We show up for each other, cover the gaps and celebrate the wins together.
• Lead with Heart: We care about people first. Investors, borrowers, tenants, clients and teammates.

If you are two busy seasons in and thinking there has to be a better way to use what I know, there is. This is it.

This is a role for someone who wants to build a career, not for someone who wants to coast between busy seasons.

Experience

• Two to four years in public accounting, audit preferred.
• CPA or CPA candidate.
• Bachelor's degree in accounting required.
