Job Description

Position Overview

Seek Thermal is looking for a motivated, detail-oriented Staff Accountant who wants to broaden their accounting experience while contributing to a growing technology company.

This role will focus primarily on month-end close and general ledger accounting, with responsibility for assigned account reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and financial analysis. The Staff Accountant will also cross-train in both Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable to provide backup support and develop a well-rounded understanding of the Accounting department.

You'll receive mentorship from experienced members of our finance team, gain hands-on experience working in NetSuite, our ERP system, and have opportunities to take on broader accounting responsibilities as your knowledge and experience grow.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Support monthly, quarterly, and year-end close, including preparing journal entries, accruals, assigned balance sheet account reconciliations, and supporting schedules.
  • Manage corporate credit card accounting, including coding transactions, posting activity to the general ledger, completing monthly reconciliation, and ensuring receipts and supporting documentation are collected and maintained.
  • Prepare budget-to-actual reporting and variance analysis for management review.
  • Cross-train in Accounts Payable, including invoice review, coding, approval workflows, vendor reconciliations, and payment processing in NetSuite.
  • Research vendor discrepancies and communicate directly with vendors and internal teams to resolve invoice, payment, and account issues in a timely and professional manner.
  • Cross-train in Accounts Receivable and provide backup coverage when needed for daily activities such as invoicing, credit memos, payment acceptance and payment posting.
  • Support audits, financial reporting, and other accounting projects.
  • Identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks, reduce manual work, and improve the accuracy and efficiency of our paperless accounting processes.
  • Take on broader accounting responsibilities as your knowledge and experience grows.

Qualifications

What We're Looking For
•    Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
•    Solid understanding of accounting principles and the general ledger.
•    1–3 years of accounting experience preferred, with exposure to account reconciliations and month-end close activities.
•    Strong Excel skills and comfort working with ERP and accounting systems; NetSuite experience is a plus, but not required.
•    Attention to detail and a commitment to accurate, high-quality work.
•    Curiosity and willingness to learn from feedback and mentorship.
•    Ownership and problem-solving skills with a desire to see issues through to resolution.
•    Continuous-improvement mindset and an interest in using technology to work more efficiently.
•    Strong communication, organization, and ability to work effectively across departments.
•    Experience in a technology, manufacturing, or growing company is a plus, but we're equally interested in candidates who demonstrate the ability and desire to learn.

 

Additional Information

Why Join Seek Thermal?
You'll join a high-performing, collaborative accounting team where you'll have the opportunity to build a broad accounting skill set while learning from experienced team members.

Our team values accuracy, accountability, continuous improvement, and working together to get things done well. We encourage people to ask questions, bring forward ideas, and understand the why behind their work.

As Seek Thermal grows, we want this role to grow with it. Our goal is to provide the mentorship, experience, and increasing responsibility needed to develop into a well-rounded accounting professional.
