About the role
Accountant We are looking for an Accountant to support core financial operations for a mission-driven organization in Atlanta, Georgia.

Help address audit requests by organizing documentation and validating account balances.
Work within Sage Intacct or similar accounting software to process transactions and review financial information.
Contribute to accounts payable and accounts receivable activities as needed, including reviewing postings for accuracy.
Perform bank reconciliations and follow up on unmatched items to keep cash records current.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
