As the Staff Accountant for Vertex Management Services, you are the guardian of the month-end close for our partner, Legacy Traditional Schools, ensuring the financial integrity that allows them to focus on changing lives. You will operate with a heads-down focus on transactional execution, meticulously preparing audit-proof reconciliations and processing a high volume of journal entries with exceptional precision. Success in this role is defined by an unwavering commitment to meeting every deadline, prioritizing the speed, accuracy, and integrity of the close cycle.

  • Perform routine and ad-hoc account analysis to validate financial data, identify potential inconsistencies, and escalate material issues.

3. Daily Cash & Treasury Operations:

  • Perform daily review of cash reconciliations for all campuses to ensure completeness and accuracy.
  • Provide transactional support for merchant account management, including investigating inquiries from LTS campus staff and payment processors.

4. Process Adherence & Documentation:

  • Maintain and update detailed documentation for all owned processes and procedures to ensure clarity, consistency, and backup readiness.
  • Identify and document opportunities for process improvements, focusing on practical fixes that enhance efficiency within the existing toolset.
  • Respond to and resolve assigned finance inquiries from campus staff or internal departments.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of accounting experience with direct responsibility for general ledger maintenance and month-end close tasks.
  • Strong knowledge of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and internal controls.
  • Demonstrated ability to consistently meet tight deadlines in a high-volume, transactional environment.
  • Hands-on experience with a large-scale ERP system such as Workday, NetSuite, or Oracle.
  • Proficiency using Microsoft Excel for data analysis and reconciliation (e.g., pivot tables, VLOOKUPs).
  • Meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to producing accurate, well-documented work.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Direct experience with Workday Financial Management.
  • Experience using account reconciliation software, particularly BlackLine.
  • Experience in a multi-location or multi-entity accounting environment.
