Accounting Manager

Agile Six is a people-first, remote-work company that serves shoulder-to-shoulder with federal agencies to find innovative, human-centered solutions. We build better by putting people first. We are animated by our core values of Purpose, Wholeness, Trust, Self-Management and Inclusion. We deliver our solutions in autonomous teams of self-managed professionals (no managers here!) who genuinely care about each other and the work. We know that’s our company’s purpose – and that we can only achieve it by supporting a culture where people feel valued, self-managed, and love to come to work.

The role

Agile Six is looking to grow our small but impactful Accounting and Finance team. This is an exciting opportunity to learn and support the entire scope of accounting and financial operations for a 100+ person company. In this role, you will perform daily accounting functions (using Unanet) to support month end close and financial reporting. Our team also handles timekeeping, payroll logistics, expense tracking, and contract management. We use Notion for documentation and collaborating on projects, Slack for communication, and Excel/Google Sheets for everything in between.

We are searching for a candidate who has strong analytical and problem solving skills, and experience working for a government contracting company. In addition to helping at a tactical level day to day, you’ll enjoy this role if you delight in finding inefficiencies and are excited to help us scale and improve our current processes over time.

Please note, this is an individual contributor's role. At Agile Six, we do not have middle management role or supervisors, and the Accounting Manager will manage accounting processes and responsibilities, not people.
