About Flip Fractional

Flip Fractional is a fractional CFO firm for 7- & 8-figure businesses in beauty & wellness, interior design & other brick-and-mortar service industries. Everything we build for clients sits on top of their books, so those books need to be accurate, tidy & ready when we need them.

About the Role

We're looking for a hands‑on Senior Accountant to own each client's books, from the first transaction to the final financial statements. You'll categorize, reconcile, close the month & deliver GAAP‑compliant financials. You're fluent in QBO & know how to make it do exactly what we need, even when there's no built‑in way to do it.

You're also a clear, friendly communicator. Our philosophy is simple: we take the long route so our clients can take the short one. That means you do the digging first & only bring clients the questions they truly need to answer, in language anyone can understand.

The Technical Side

• Categorization: categorize transactions accurately & consistently, using every available resource before asking the client
• Reconciliations: reconcile every bank, credit card, loan & clearing account, every month
• Month‑end close: own the close for each client, from first entry to final review, delivered on time & accurately
• Financial statements: prepare & own GAAP‑compliant P&Ls, balance sheets & cash flow statements, including accruals & adjusting entries
• QBO structure: build & refine charts of accounts, classes, locations & products/services so each client's books support clear reporting
• QBO problem‑solving: find creative, sound ways to get QBO to produce the views & reports we need, whether the path is straightforward or not
• Payroll reconciliation: tie payroll provider reports to QBO every month, including tips, commissions & benefits
• CPA handoff: prepare tax‑ready books & year‑end packages for each client's CPA
• Internal controls: design & maintain controls, keep documentation & audit trails clean & flag anything that needs a closer look

The Client Side

• Proactive first: research receipts, past patterns, vendor details & prior conversations before reaching out. Clients hear from you only when you truly need their input.
• Simple, human language: turn accounting questions into plain, everyday ones. Instead of "Please provide support for the uncategorized expense," you'd ask, "Was this $240 charge at Home Depot for the salon or personal?"\
• Easy to answer: batch your questions, give context & make each one quick to answer so clients can respond in minutes
• Clear follow‑through: close the loop, update the books & keep clients informed about what's been done

Building the Function

• SOPs: document your processes so our accounting can scale as we grow
• Workflow improvements: spot manual steps & help us automate them

Room to Grow

You'll be building our accounting function from the ground up. As Flip grows, this role can grow with it: leading & reviewing bookkeepers, shaping our standards & taking on a bigger leadership role in how we deliver for clients.

What You Bring

• US experience (required): 3+ years of accounting for US-based businesses
• US GAAP (required): proven experience preparing GAAP‑compliant financial statements & owning the month‑end close
• Payroll know‑how: experience reconciling payroll from providers like Gusto, ADP or Paychex
• Communication skills: a track record of explaining financial topics simply & warmly to non‑financial people
• Industry experience (preferred): beauty & wellness, interior design or other service businesses
• Detail orientation: you catch the small things early
• Education: a degree in Accounting or Finance is preferred

What Actually Matters

We're a tech‑forward team. We automate wherever we can, & we want someone who thinks in systems, not just entries. You're happy to roll up your sleeves on the details, & you care about making our clients' lives easier. You do the heavy lifting so they don't have to.

Important:

This is a US-based remote position. If you do not meet this requirement, we won’t be able to consider you for this position.
