The posting

Job Posting: Staff Accountant

Job Title: Staff Accountant Company: Briggs Auto Group Location: Manhattan, KS Position Type: Full-Time

Job Summary

We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Staff Accountant to join our accounting team at Briggs Auto Group here in Manhattan, KS. The ideal candidate will have a strong accounting background to confidently manage daily financial operations, reporting, and complex reconciliations. Prior automotive dealership experience and familiarity with the CDK Global Dealer Management System (DMS) are considered a strong plus, but are not mandatory, as we are fully prepared to train a candidate with exceptional core accounting expertise.

Key Responsibilities

  • General Ledger Management: Maintain ownership of the general ledger, prepare and post journal entries, and ensure all financial schedules are accurate and current.
  • Financial Reconciliation: Perform daily bank reconciliations, audit dealership cash drawer logs, and reconcile monthly inventory floor plan statements.
  • Deal Packaging & Posting: Review and post vehicle sales logs, finance and insurance (F&I) deals, and trade-in transactions within the CDK DMS.
  • Accounts Payable & Receivable: Process factory invoices, vendor payments, and manufacturer rebate claims while resolving any statement discrepancies.
  • Month-End Closing: Partner with the Controller to finalize monthly financial statements, execute local/state tax filings, and submit manufacturer financial reports.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Education & Background: A solid foundation in accounting principles is required. A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field—or equivalent heavy hands-on accounting experience—is necessary.
  • Experience: 2+ years of general accounting experience is required. Automotive dealership accounting experience is a definite plus.
  • Software: Experience with CDK DMS is a plus but not mandatory. Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel (including VLOOKUPs, formulas, and pivot tables) is required.
  • Core Competencies: Clear understanding of complex reconciliations, balance sheets, and standard financial reporting. Knowledge of dealership-specific concepts (schedules, floor plans, holdbacks) is a significant advantage.
  • Attributes: Sharp attention to detail, strong problem-solving abilities, and the capacity to meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

Benefits & Compensation

  • Salary Range: Commensurate with experience
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company match
  • Paid time off (PTO) and holiday pay
  • Employee discounts on vehicle purchases, parts, and service

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
