About LeadSimple

About the role
We’re looking for a hands-on accountant to own our monthly close and keep our financial records accurate, current, and easy to understand. You’ll do the detailed work, follow discrepancies through to resolution, and give leadership a reliable view of the business each month.
Monthly accounting and reporting are the core of this role. You’ll also support a focused set of revenue operations tasks: keeping billing accurate, coordinating collections, preparing commission accruals, and making sure revenue data agrees across systems.
What you’ll own
Monthly close and financial reporting
Run the monthly close from start to finish, with a clear checklist, timeline, and ownership for every step
Prepare and post journal entries, accruals, and adjustments; maintain supporting schedules for revenue, deferred revenue, prepaid expenses, and other balance sheet accounts
Reconcile bank, credit card, and balance sheet accounts; investigate discrepancies and resolve outstanding items
Bring together accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll inputs, and expense records so the books are complete and correctly categorized
Prepare the monthly income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow reporting, with a concise explanation of material changes and unusual items
Keep documentation organized and reviewable, and coordinate with internal partners and outside accounting support to get missing information and close on time
Light revenue operations
Check customer billing against agreed terms and subscription changes; work with customer-facing teams to resolve errors
Maintain visibility into overdue receivables and coordinate follow-up with the people who own the customer relationship
Calculate and reconcile commissions and related accruals using approved compensation plans
Reconcile billing and revenue records across operational systems and the general ledger, and flag inconsistencies in recurring-revenue reporting
Make the process better
Document recurring work, reduce unnecessary manual steps, and build checks that catch problems before close
Surface financial risks and data gaps early, with a practical recommendation for resolving them
What success looks like in your first 90 days
You understand the accounting systems, recurring entries, revenue flows, and open reconciliation items
You own a documented close calendar and deliver accurate monthly financials on an agreed schedule
Key balance sheet accounts have clear supporting schedules, and unresolved items have an owner and a plan
Billing, collections, and commission workflows have simple, repeatable checks
Leadership can understand the monthly results and trust the numbers behind them
What you’ll bring
Experience personally owning month-end close and preparing financial statements
Strong working knowledge of accrual accounting, balance sheet reconciliations, and revenue recognition
The ability to trace a number from the source transaction through the financial statements and explain what happened
Confidence working in accounting software and spreadsheets, including reconciling data across systems
Careful judgment with confidential information and a habit of maintaining clear documentation
Crisp communication, dependable follow-through, and the initiative to solve problems without waiting to be asked
Especially useful
Experience with B2B SaaS or another subscription business
Familiarity with deferred revenue, recurring-revenue metrics, billing systems, and sales commission calculations
Experience improving a lean accounting operation and working with outside accounting partners
