About The Position

As a Senior Accounting Specialist at Uplinq, you'll own the accounting relationship for a portfolio of complex clients — leading the close, leading the calls, and making the judgment calls that keep the books right. You'll also review the work of junior Accounting Specialists and give them the kind of feedback that makes them better next month, not just this month. This role is built for someone who wants both the technical depth and the responsibility of being the person a client and a junior teammate can count on.

Requirements

5+ years of small business or firm-based accounting experience.
Experience reviewing or overseeing the work of other accountants — this is a core part of the role, not an occasional task.
Advanced knowledge of QuickBooks Online.
Strong knowledge of full-cycle accrual accounting and GAAP principles.
Experience with job costing, inventory, and class/location reporting.
Skilled in managing third-party integrations.
Documentation and workflow-mapping ability.
Confident communicator who can lead client meetings and explain financials clearly, without relying on a manager to translate.

Responsibilities

Own month-end close and financial reporting for a portfolio of complex clients using QuickBooks Online (QBO) and Uplinq's proprietary accounting system.
Serve as the main point of contact for your clients — leading calls, owning the relationship, and resolving escalations directly.
Handle job costing, inventory tracking, and class/location-based reporting as needed.
Manage and troubleshoot third-party integrations.
Prepare and document advanced journal entries.
Apply full-cycle accrual accounting and GAAP principles across a range of client industries and entity types.
Build and maintain client-specific SOPs, documentation, and QBO workflows.
Review junior Accounting Specialists' work on a recurring basis and provide clear, specific, written feedback.
Act as a technical resource junior staff can bring questions to before an error becomes a client-facing problem.
