Accounting Manager – Nonprofit
- Salary: $90,000 – $100,000 (base) + annual performance bonus potential
- Location: Washington, DC
- Office Situation: Hybrid (3 days in office / 2 days remote)
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
- This is the kind of role accountants talk about wanting but rarely find: real ownership without burnout. You are the go-to accounting professional, trusted to run the numbers and given the space to do it well.
- You’ll work side-by-side with a seasoned finance leader who knows the role inside and out, is invested in training and knowledge transfer, and genuinely wants to set their successor up for success.
- Work in a professional and mission-driven nonprofit environment where your contributions matter, not just for compliance but for enabling programs that broaden perspectives, strengthen diplomacy, and forge global relationships.
- You won’t be boxed into AP or AR. You’ll touch everything that matters: close, reporting, grants, audits, and decision-support, the kind of experience that actually builds a career.
- The hybrid schedule is real and stable (not “for now”), with leadership fully committed to flexibility.
- Long-term upside is real. As the organization evolves over the next few years, this role naturally grows in responsibility and influence for someone who wants it.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own full-cycle accounting, including month-end close, accruals, and reconciliations
- Prepare monthly financial statements and reporting for leadership and the board
- Manage accounts payable, accounts receivable, and cash activity
- Handle payroll accounting, journal entries, and related schedules (403(b), accruals)
- Support grant financial reporting and budget tracking (training provided)
- Prepare audit schedules and support annual audit and tax processes
- Partner with internal teams to ensure accurate financial data and reporting
Qualifications:
- 5+ years of full-cycle accounting experience
- Strong accrual-based accounting knowledge
- Experience with QuickBooks (Online preferred)
- Hands-on experience with month-end close, reconciliations, and financial reporting
- Experience in a nonprofit or grant-funded environment
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or related field
- Comfortable owning day-to-day accounting responsibilities
