Staff Accountant | Tampa Bay, FL | Competitive Salary + Full Benefits

Join a lean, collaborative accounting team at a small-to-mid-market company where your full-cycle accounting skills, attention to detail, and process-improvement instincts will be put to work in a role with real variety and genuine visibility. This is a hands-on position built around the fundamentals — journal entries, reconciliations, fixed assets, and month-end close — and it is designed for someone who enjoys digging into processes, takes pride in clean work, and wants to grow their skills in a supportive, team-oriented environment. You will work closely with an experienced team that is collaborative by design and invested in doing things the right way, including maintaining strong internal controls and a continuous improvement mindset. The role offers meaningful exposure across the full balance sheet, international accounting, multi-currency transactions, and tax support — a breadth that is hard to find at this level. If you bring 3+ years of solid accounting experience, a strong grasp of the fundamentals, and the self-starter energy to contribute from day one, this is a great place to build your career.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform bank account reconciliations across multiple accounts and currencies as part of the monthly close cycle.
• Reconcile fixed asset and intangible asset accounts; record journal entries with proper supporting documentation for a clean audit trail.
• Perform monthly flux analysis on various accounts and cost centers; prepare complex account analyses for monthly allocation journal entries.
• Analyze monthly revenue and cost of sales accounts for accurate posting and proper revenue recognition application; coordinate any necessary adjustment entries.
• Assist the tax and compliance function with domestic and international ledger postings and related support.

• Ensure all accounting activities comply with GAAP and IFRS; maintain and update standard operating procedures on an ongoing basis.
• Support continual process improvement initiatives while upholding proper internal controls.
• Perform special projects and ad hoc requests from management as needed.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting preferred — candidates without a degree will be considered with 5+ years of relevant accounting experience; minimum 3 years required for degreed candidates.
• Solid understanding of fundamental accounting principles — debits, credits, accruals, and balance sheet relationships — or a demonstrated eagerness to learn.
• Experience in a smaller to mid-market company environment.
• Exposure to the full balance sheet across multiple account types.
• Advanced Excel skills — pivot tables, lookups, and data manipulation used regularly.
• Strong attention to detail, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities.
• Self-starter mentality with genuine curiosity about how processes work and how they can be improved.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines consistently.
• Team-oriented with excellent written and verbal communication skills.
