Description

Remote Accountant (MN)

Shape Financial Clarity, No Matter Where You Are

Numbers tell a story. Yours should drive real decisions, spark smarter growth, and make the complex feel simple. In this fully remote accountant role based in Minnesota, you’ll turn financial data into actionable insights—helping our clients and teams operate with confidence from day one.

This is more than spreadsheets and reconciliations. It’s your chance to transform how we serve our partners by translating numbers into clear strategies and reliable outcomes. You’ll find autonomy, deep focus, and the trust to lead meaningful projects—without being tethered to a single office.

What You’ll Make Happen

  • Champion accurate reporting. You’ll ensure that every balance sheet, profit and loss (P&L) statement, and cash flow statement not only meets compliance requirements but also informs better choices for our stakeholders.
  • Streamline monthly closes. Your expertise in close processes means teams move swiftly, with minimal errors and maximum clarity. No last-minute scrambles—just reliable, timely financials.
  • Translate numbers for non-accountants. You simplify complex reporting—over Zoom, Slack, or occasionally by phone. Partners and colleagues leave your meetings with real understanding, not just jargon.
  • Uncover insights that matter. From variance analysis to budget forecasting, your eye for detail uncovers trends, risks, and opportunities that others miss. Your input guides leadership and fuels smarter, more effective growth.
  • Design better workflows. Whether it’s automating a reconciliation or tightening up documentation, you’ll make processes smoother for everyone. We move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus deeply and get it right.
  • Support audits with ease. Auditors find you prepared, proactive, and ready with clear documentation. Your groundwork means compliance is just another milestone—not a stress point.

How You’ll Collaborate

You’ll partner directly with finance, operations, and business leads to answer big questions and build unified solutions. Working remotely doesn’t mean working alone. You’ll share best practices, coordinate during sprint reviews, and help everyone see the story in the numbers—no matter the tool or timezone.

Our digital finance stack keeps us connected: you’ll leverage QuickBooks, NetSuite, and Excel for daily accounting, and join team check-ins via Zoom and Slack. You’ll also use secure cloud platforms to document and share insights seamlessly.

What Sets You Up for Success

  • CPA certification or equivalent experience. You know accounting standards inside and out, and you’ve put them into practice for 3+ years—ideally in a remote or hybrid setting.
  • Deep experience with remote accounting tools. QuickBooks, NetSuite, Excel, and digital documentation are second nature to me. If you’re already using cloud-based workflow solutions, even better.
  • You make the complex feel simple. Whether it’s a tricky reconciliation or a new compliance rule, you know how to break it down and get buy-in from non-finance teams.
  • You see the story, not just the numbers. Your reporting turns raw data into business strategy—and your insights actually drive decisions.
  • Adaptable and self-driven. Remote work is your comfort zone. You manage your own deadlines, stay accountable, and know how to carve out deep focus time—even when Slack is buzzing.

The Way We Work

You’ll find structure and flexibility in equal measure. We value deep focus but keep our virtual doors open. Our team is spread across different time zones, but we check in frequently, share insights, and celebrate the milestones that matter—no matter the distance.

Weekly syncs ensure you stay aligned with leadership and the broader team. We rely on clear documentation, candid feedback, and transparency, so you’re never left guessing what comes next.

The Tools That Keep Us Connected

  • QuickBooks & NetSuite: Core accounting workflows, reporting, and reconciliations.
  • Microsoft Excel & Google Sheets: Advanced analysis, forecasting, and data visualization.
  • Cloud storage (Google Drive/Dropbox): Secure document management and sharing.
  • Slack & Zoom: Daily communication, meetings, and fast troubleshooting.
  • Project management (Asana, Trello): Clearly define deadlines, collaborate on process improvements, and track progress with the team.

Impact That Goes Beyond the Ledger

Every report you deliver, every insight you share, helps our team, clients, and partners make decisions that ripple out across their businesses. Your work frees up leaders to focus on what matters most. You’ll spot risks before they become problems—and turn small details into big wins.

Salary for this role is set at $65,812 annually, reflecting the importance we place on top-tier accounting talent, especially in a remote setting.

What Makes This Role Different

If you’re searching for a place to make an impact from day one—where your expertise isn’t just recognized but relied on—you’re in the right spot. This isn’t a position where you disappear into routine. Instead, you’ll have the voice, visibility, and support to help shape how we serve, grow, and deliver results for clients everywhere.
