Job description

Accounting Manager
Zulay Kitchen | Remote 

About the Role
Zulay Kitchen is seeking an experienced, detail-oriented, and proactive Accounting Manager to oversee accounting operations, manage the month-end close, and ensure accurate financial reporting.
We are looking for someone with strong technical accounting skills, a forensic eye for identifying errors, and the initiative to ask questions, challenge inconsistencies, and recommend process improvements.
The ideal candidate takes ownership, thinks critically, and doesn't simply reconcile accounts—they understand the numbers and investigate when something doesn't make sense.
Key Responsibilities
  • Month-End Close: Oversee monthly closing, including journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and financial reporting.
  • Balance Sheet Management: Ensure accounts are accurate, properly reconciled, and supported.
  • Inventory & COGS: Manage inventory accounting, valuation, reporting, and reconciliations, including landed costs and cost of goods sold.
  • Marketplace Reconciliations: Reconcile pending deposits, clearing accounts, payment processors, and marketplace settlements.
  • Financial Analysis: Proactively identify accounting errors, unusual balances, and discrepancies.
  • SOPs & Internal Controls: Develop and implement procedures to improve accuracy, efficiency, and accountability.
  • Team Oversight: Review accounting work, provide guidance, and ensure deadlines are met.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance required.
  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, preferably in e-commerce, retail, or an inventory-intensive business.
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP, accrual accounting, and financial statement preparation.
  • Advanced understanding of balance sheet accounting, reconciliations, inventory valuation, and COGS.
  • Experience independently managing month-end close.
  • Proficiency in QuickBooks Online and advanced Excel skills.
  • Strong investigative, analytical, and problem-solving abilities.
  • Experience developing SOPs and improving accounting processes.
What Sets You Apart
We're looking for someone who:
  • Has a forensic mindset and naturally spots errors and inconsistencies.
  • Asks questions and challenges accounting treatments that don't make sense.
  • Takes initiative rather than waiting for direction.
  • Investigates discrepancies and identifies their root causes.
  • Proactively recommends solutions and process improvements.
  • Takes ownership and follows issues through to resolution.
If you're an accounting professional who enjoys digging into the numbers, solving problems, and improving processes, we'd love to hear from you.
