Job description

LegalMatch Philippines is looking for an experienced Senior Accountant to join our Finance team. This is a hands-on senior individual contributor role focused on execution, accuracy, and delivery rather than people management or executive authority. You will support complex accounting operations in a growing SaaS environment, working closely with U.S.-based stakeholders to help ensure financial integrity, compliance, and dependable reporting. 

This role is designed for a strong operator who values ownership, clear communication, and collaboration in a flat, cross-functional environment. 

Responsibilities:

  • Perform hands-on general accounting work to support day-to-day finance operations 
  • Prepare, maintain, and support recurring financial reports, including semi-monthly reports 
  • Ensure accuracy and completeness of financial data across systems and reports 
  • Demonstrate understanding of reconciliations and support financial data accuracy when needed 
  • Provide ad hoc accounting support to finance leadership as business needs evolve 
  • Work closely with U.S.-based stakeholders during overlapping hours to support timely decisions 
  • Communicate progress clearly, including timelines, risks, and capacity 
  • Proactively clarify expectations and deliverables with stakeholders 
  • Identify and suggest improvements to accounting processes, documentation, and efficiency 
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., Sales Ops, Analytics) when financial coordination is required

Requirements

  • 5–7 years of professional experience in U.S. Accounting
  • 5–7 years of experience with Revenue Recognition
  • 5–7 years of exposure to SaaS accounting environments
  • Strong understanding of accounting principles and financial reporting
  • High attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
  • Proven ability to manage deliverables independently with minimal supervision
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills
  • Familiarity with banking workflows (e.g., ACH processing, wires, funding cycles, payroll funding) is a plus, but not a core responsibility
  • Willing to work a shift aligned with U.S. hours (1:00 AM – 9:00 AM PH time), with flexibility for occasional early meetings as needed. 
  • Ability to work from a secure, private environment suitable for handling sensitive financial systems and data 

We’re looking for someone who is:  

  • Detail-oriented and dependable with strong execution skills
  • Comfortable in a hands-on, high-accountability individual contributor role
  • Proactive in communicating progress, risks, and capacity
  • Collaborative and team-oriented, with comfort working in a flat structure
  • Open to feedback and continuous improvement
  • Trustworthy in handling confidential financial information
