Accountant - audit preparation (remote)

We are growing our team at Clearpath Stone Transit Planning Group and adding an Accountant whose main responsibility will be audit preparation. We value plain explanations. What you will do • Reconcile bank and vendor accounts each month, including anything tied to ridership counts, and clear open items. • Work with purchasing and operations to fix recurring coding errors. • Keep the chart of accounts and supporting files tidy so anyone can follow them. • Review invoices and expense reports for accuracy before payment. • Prepare journal entries and support the month-end close on a fixed calendar. What we are looking for • A clear, patient way of explaining numbers to non-accountants. • Solid spreadsheet skills and comfort with an ERP or accounting system. • Careful attention to detail and a habit of checking your own work. • Two or more years of hands-on accounting experience. Nice to have • Experience with ridership counts. • Familiarity with audit requirements. Working arrangement • Part-time, about 24 hours a week, with flexible days. • Fully remote, with an occasional day on site in Tucson. • Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.
