Staff Accountant
Location: Lehi, Utah — FT In-Office
Reports to: Accounting Manager
About Remi
Remi is a fast-growing, venture-backed company scaling our finance and accounting function. We’re building a high-rigor close, cleaning up years of general ledger activity, and preparing for an external audit while transitioning from QBO to a scalable ERP. If you love clean workpapers, clear tie-outs, and learning by doing, you’ll fit right in.
Role Summary
You’ll be a core contributor to our monthly close and audit readiness. Day-to-day, you’ll prepare and own reconciliations, book and document journal entries, support AR/AP workflows, and assemble audit-ready PBCs. You’ll work closely with the Accounting Manager to standardize processes, improve data quality, and shorten the close.
What you’ll do
Close & G/L (Primary)
Prepare and own balance-sheet reconciliations (cash, AR/AP, prepaids, fixed assets, accruals/deferrals); maintain roll-forward schedules with clear tick-marks and support.
Post recurring and ad-hoc journal entries with documentation and approvals; maintain a clean audit trail.
Perform monthly flux analysis and investigate variances; propose corrections with clear rationale.
Maintain a standardized workpaper package each month (index, naming conventions, sign-offs).
Audit & Controls
Build PBC packages (reports, tie-outs, samples) and respond to auditor requests with accuracy and speed.
Follow and help improve close checklists, review workflows, and evidence retention standards.
AR/AP Rotations
Support billing, cash application, and collections reporting; help resolve unapplied cash and short-pays.
Process vendor bills, assist with payment runs, and ensure correct coding, approvals, and cut-off.
Systems & Data
Work in QuickBooks Online while helping test and document processes for our ERP transition.
Reconcile data between internal systems/subledgers and the G/L; surface mismatches early.
Cross-functional
Partner with Operations and the Technical Accounting lead to ensure clean cut-off for revenue and costs.
Communicate clearly—brief write-ups, crisp summaries, and proactive status updates.
What you’ll learn / growth path
Master building audit-quality workpapers and recon programs.
Exposure to ERP implementation.
Clear advancement path to Senior Accountant (lead reconciliations, reviewer responsibilities, process ownership).
Qualifications
Must-have
Bachelor’s in Accounting, Finance, or related field (or 1+ year relevant accounting experience including internships).
Solid grasp of GAAP basics (accruals, deferrals, revenue/cost cut-off) and how they show up in entries and reconciliations.
Excel/Sheets proficiency: SUMIFS, INDEX/XMATCH, PivotTables, text functions, and error-handling.
Strong attention to detail; you enjoy finding the $0.01 and explaining the “why.”
Clear written communication and an organized approach to documentation.
Nice-to-have
Experience in a high-growth company or public accounting.
Familiarity with QuickBooks Online.
Basic BI/SQL or reconciliation automation exposure (not required).
Tools you’ll use
QuickBooks Online (transitioning to a scalable ERP)
Google Sheets/Excel, Google Drive
