Senior Accountant – Hospitality Industry

Job Description

Job Category: Accounting Finance
Job Type: Full Time
Job Location: IIlinois
Job Location Type: Remote

We’re seeking a highly skilled Senior Accountant with deep experience in hospitality accounting, full-cycle month-end close, and QuickBooks Online mastery. While U.S. tax preparation is a component, your main focus will be core accounting operations—ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and clean financial reports across multi-entity hospitality clients.

If you’re fluent in English, strong in U.S. GAAP, and love creating structure from complexity, this role was made for you.

 

Key Responsibilities

Core Accounting (Primary Focus)

  • Lead and execute the full month-end close process across multiple hospitality entities
  • Manage the general ledger, ensuring clean, accurate, and GAAP-compliant records
  • Prepare and review journal entries, reconciliations, and financial statements
  • Oversee bookkeeping workflows for multiple clients
  • Support integrity of A/P and A/R as part of GL management

 

Reporting & Analysis

  • Build and interpret financial reports in QuickBooks Online
  • Deliver insights through cash flow, P&L, and balance sheet analysis
  • Partner with clients to guide strategic financial decisions

 

U.S. Tax Preparation (Secondary Function)

  • Support preparation of U.S. tax filings: Forms 1040, 1120, 1120S, and 1065
  • Ensure tax work complements the accounting process (not standalone or siloed)
  • Organize documentation for compliance and filing

 

You’re a Great Fit If You Have…

Experience & Education

  • 4+ years of full-cycle accounting experience
  • Experience working with U.S.-based clients and tax forms
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

 

Technical Skills

  • QuickBooks Online (Advanced) — multi-entity file handling, reporting, and customization
  • Strong Excel proficiency (PivotTables, formulas, financial models)
  • Knowledge of U.S. GAAP and hospitality-specific cost structures
  • Familiarity with U.S. tax forms is a plus (1040, 1120 series, 1065)

 

Communication & Work Style

  • Fluent written and spoken English (clear, neutral accent required)
  • Able to work independently in a remote setting without close supervision
  • Meticulous, proactive, and detail-oriented
  • Strong communicator who collaborates well across teams and clients
