Job description

We are looking for a bias-to-action Staff Accountant who can balance the books, model the future, and explain both in plain English. We offer $162,000 - $218,000, a clear growth track, and a team where your 7 years of experience genuinely move the needle.

Key Responsibilities

• Steer the internship grant reporting that keeps funders confident
• Stand up internal controls that survive a surprise audit
• Build cash-flow models that hold up under a wildly-collaborative stress test
• Keep capital-expenditure approvals flowing without losing the paper trail
• Drive the annual planning cycle and consolidate financial projections

What You'll Bring

• Comfort working in a fast-paced, sharp-but-gentle environment
• Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Willingness to relocate to Orange, CA, or to make remote work
• 9 years of learning when to trust the process and when to break it

Consulting Edge treats Orange, CA as both home and laboratory, prototyping playfully-serious finance ideas no larger rival would risk. We reward the teammate who unblocks three colleagues over the one who quietly hero-codes alone.

The headline reads $162,000 - $218,000; the fine print is all upside, mentorship, benefits, and freedom to grow your ACCA.

Applications are flowing in for this finance role, and we are reviewing each one promptly.

We welcome applications from driven professionals ready to make an impact.
