We're the premier, remote accounting, tax, and consulting firm built exclusively to serve the craft brewing industry. Our mission is to help breweries make profit. And our team is filled with expert, autonomous, adaptable, high performers. Are you up for the challenge? We're looking for a full-time, remote Brewery Accountant to join our specialized team. The main objective of this role is to lead our outsourced accounting engagements in accordance with the SBS Core Values. About The Role This role will report to our Brewery Accounting Manager and is accountable for fulfilling the following responsibilities: + Accounting service delivery for our brewery clients. In the primary function of this role, you'll work hand-in-hand with our brewery clients and your Accounting Team members to ensure their books are up to date, reconciled, and closed each month. Because breweries involve a complex set of sales, manufacturing, and general business transactions, this process requires a deep technical proficiency and comfort with process and technology. + Client account management. Beyond the technical execution of the accounting work, you'll also act as the main point of contact for each of your clients and be responsible for ensuring the relationship is healthy. This involves setting an effective cadence of communication, establishing excellent working relationships with key contacts within the brewery, and ensuring the client adheres to our processes and recommendations. + Support your Tax and Consulting teammates. Additionally, you'll be responsible both for supporting the annual tax return filing process, as well as providing financial and operational insights to the Consulting Team so they can effectively advise our clients. + Participate and contribute to the overall success of our team. Each week the team meets to share wins, progress, and knowledge, as well as identify and solve issues at multiple levels (company, team, individual). Your full participation in this process is critical to ensure that we are operating as a cohesive, high-performance unit. About You We're looking for an individual who: + Enjoys continuity. You enjoy the regular rhythm of working with a core set of clients week-in and week-out. “Consistency is key” is your motto. + Has the technical chops. You've got the fundamentals covered. Integrations with QBO? Got it. Payroll accruals? No problem. Inventory reconciliation? In your sleep. Chart of accounts re-organization? Easy-peasy. + Can effectively solve problems. When a sync breaks, rogue inventory transactions appear, or a clients sales tax filing portal goes down, you keep a level head, get to the root cause quickly, and use the resources at your disposal to get the job done. + Is a skilled communicator. You can translate your accounting-speak into clear, straightforward communication, can manage scope and negotiate boundaries, and can just simply make relationships with clients… work! + Is a manager of one. Unlike working within a traditional firm, in this role you'll be in the driver's seat, managing your workflow and workload in order to meet the standard set of deliverables required for each client. About Our Culture We're fully remote, with team members and clients located all across the U.S. and have developed our own unique culture we call The SBS Way, within which we operate, evaluate performance, and make decisions using our core values as a guide: + Be Antifragile. Everything we do is an opportunity for learning and continuous improvement. + Play The Long Game. We make decisions in the long-term interest of our firm, our clients, and our industry. + Act as A Team of Experts. We willingly collaborate and provide feedback to develop ourselves and deliver exceptional results for our clients. Working At SBS What it's like working at our firm: + High flexibility. We don't have time sheets, don't track hours, and leave it to each team member to determine the best way to complete their work. Your schedule is yours to make. + High accountability. We measure and manage to our client deliverable performance metrics and ensure each team member takes ownership over their accomplishment with a high level of quality. You own your results. + Great pay for great work. We pay based on the characteristics that matter: position (and its market value), level of mastery, and productive output for our clients. You'll be compensated well and can focus on great work. + Performance bonuses. Beyond the base salary compensation for each role, individuals who go above and beyond to achieve a higher level of productivity and contribution to our goals will be eligible to receive significant additional performance-based compensation. + Generous benefits. We offer a generous benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance enrollment; as well as an IRA match, tech stipend, 3 weeks of paid time off, and parental leave. + Merit-based career progression. We have clearly established career tracks, performance benchmarks, and mastery levels set for all of our core positions, with a quarterly review and promotion consideration cycle in place to evaluate your progress. Your progress is under your control. + Personal and and team development. Beyond our continuous learning focus, we also provide support for personal development in the form of expense coverage for continuing education (books, courses, training, certifications, etc.) as well as experiential learning (brewery visits, industry events and conferences, etc.). Each year we also meet in person for an all-expenses-paid annual retreat as a team. Job Requirements The following basic requirements must be met: + 2+ years of full cycle, accrual-based accounting experience managing multiple clients within a firm or multiple entities within a holding company. + Have rock solid proficiency with QuickBooks Online. + Have a demonstrated ability to do cross-functional remote work. + Have crystal clear professional written and verbal communication skills. + Have exacting organizational standards and a calm and friendly attitude. + Have a demonstrated ability to rapidly adapt to new technologies and software. + Available and responsive during normal business hours (9am-5pm, Monday-Friday). + Have a strong, consistent internet connection and a work environment conducive to video calls. Preferred qualifications include: + Direct previous experience managing outsourced accounting engagements in a remote environment. + Experience with the following platforms and their integrations: Bill.com, Ekos, Square, Toast, Gusto, Stripe. + Experience using Podio or similar remote project management tools (e.g. Trello, Asana, etc.).
