Staff Accountant

Parallel Ag • Marshall, MO

21d • Hybrid

About The Position

Parallel Ag is seeking a Staff Accountant who desires more than routine tasks. This role offers variety, with responsibilities including core monthly reporting (receivables, payables, inventory, and sales). The position provides opportunities to learn all aspects of the accounting department, such as reconciliations, close processes, and operational accounting. The ideal candidate is curious and interested in understanding how their work connects to the broader business.

Requirements

• A degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)
• Solid Excel skills — or a genuine willingness to build them fast
• Strong attention to detail and comfort working with numbers that need to tie out
• Clear communication skills — you'll need to explain what the numbers mean to people outside the accounting department, not just report them
• Curiosity. We'd rather hire someone eager to learn every part of the department than someone who wants to master one task and stop

Nice To Haves

• Experience in agricultural equipment, dealership, or multi-location accounting is a plus, but not required
• Familiarity with AI tools (like Claude or ChatGPT) is a bonus — we're actively building them into our workflows

Responsibilities

• Prepare monthly reports covering receivables, payables, inventory, and sales
• Perform account reconciliations and help resolve discrepancies
• Support month-end and year-end close processes across multiple locations
• Partner with team members across AR, AP, and inventory to understand how the pieces fit together
• Take on new areas of the accounting function as your skills grow

Benefits

• 401k retirement plan with company match
• Health, Dental, Vision and Life insurance
• Vacation and sick time off
• Advanced training programs
