ABOUT US

Our mission at Renterra is to modernize the $100B+ equipment rental industry. Tactically, we are building an end-to-end platform that will massively improve the way rental companies run their businesses.

Renterra is a Series A–backed, venture-funded SaaS company serving hundreds of rental businesses across the U.S. and Canada. Many of the rental companies we work with want more than great software: they want a partner who understands rental accounting and helps keep their books accurate every month.

JOB DESCRIPTION

Location: Remote, Chicagoland area. You'll need to come into our Chicago office occasionally for brainstorming and team sessions.

As a Staff Accountant, you'll keep the books current for a portfolio of small and mid-size equipment rental companies. You'll handle the day-to-day bookkeeping that makes a clean monthly close possible, from categorizing transactions to reconciling every account, working closely with our Senior Accountant, who reviews your work. It's a great role for someone who loves getting the details right and wants to grow into owning full client closes.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

- Transaction categorization: Categorize and code each client's bank and credit card transactions in QuickBooks Online accurately and on schedule.

- Reconciliations: Reconcile bank, credit card and loan accounts every month, and investigate and clear anything that doesn't tie.

- Rental system tie-out: Match invoices, payments and deposits from each client's rental software to their general ledger, and flag discrepancies.

- Accounts payable: Enter and code vendor bills, and keep vendor records up to date.

- Month-end entries: Draft recurring month-end entries, including depreciation, loan principal and interest splits, and equipment sale entries, for Senior Accountant review.

- Fixed asset register: Add new equipment purchases and disposals to each client's fixed asset register.

- Financial statements: Prepare draft monthly P&Ls, balance sheets and cash flow statements for review.

- Sales tax: Pull and organize sales tax collected by jurisdiction so returns can be prepared each month or quarter.

- Vendor W-9s and 1099s: Collect W-9s through the year and gather the data for year-end 1099 preparation.

- Client communication: Follow up with clients on missing receipts, uncategorized transactions and documents, clearly and promptly.

QUALIFICATIONS

- Bachelor's degree in accounting or a related field, or equivalent bookkeeping experience

- 1–3 years of bookkeeping or accounting experience, ideally serving small business clients

- Required: advanced, hands-on expertise with bank feeds and rules, reconciliations, journal entries and reporting in QuickBooks Online

- Hands-on experience with transaction categorization and account reconciliations

- Excellent attention to detail and comfort working through high transaction volume

- Located in the Chicagoland area and able to come into the office occasionally

Nice to have:

- Exposure to fixed asset accounting, equipment loans or sales tax

- Experience with equipment rental, construction or other asset-heavy businesses

- QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor certification, or working toward a CPA

WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive compensation

- Health, dental, and vision insurance

- An inclusive and supportive team culture

- Opportunities for professional growth and advancement, including a path to owning full client closes

- The chance to make a meaningful impact on our business and in our customers' lives

This is a unique opportunity to join an early-stage startup and make a significant impact on its growth trajectory. If you take pride in clean, accurate books and want to grow your accounting career, we'd love to hear from you.

We encourage individuals of all backgrounds and experiences to apply as we believe a diverse team can drive innovation.

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.
