Job Description:
About the Role
The Groove is building out a formal finance and accounting function to match its growth — moving from a founder-run, FreshBooks-era setup to a clean, accrual-basis close on Workday. We're hiring a Staff Accountant to be the hands-on, day-to-day executor of that build-out: reconciliations, journal entries, AP/AR support, and the general ledger discipline that lets the rest of the finance team focus on policy and higher-level review rather than data entry. This is a ground-floor opportunity to help stand up a finance function from the inside, working directly with the CFO and an experienced controller consultant.
What You'll Do
Perform monthly and quarterly bank reconciliations in Workday, including clearing out a backlog of unapplied deposits and cash.
Reconcile balance sheet accounts on an accrual basis each quarter, researching and correcting unnatural or stale balances.
Support the transition to accrual-basis accounting: prepaid amortization, depreciation, accrual entries for payroll/PTO/bonus/commission, and other standard month-end adjustments, under the Controller Consultant's direction.
Assist with accounts payable: invoice coding, cost-center/worktag completion, and 1099 vendor tracking alongside the AP/payroll lead.
Assist with accounts receivable: cash application, unapplied payment research, and supporting a weekly reconciliation process for time-and-billing data.
Support payroll-related reconciliations, including matching payroll journal entries to ADP settlement detail and reviewing benefits deductions for accuracy.
Help build and maintain a documented monthly close checklist as the function matures.
Take on increasing responsibility for recurring, process-driven accounting work as Workday automation (bank-rec, AP workflow, revenue-recognition) comes online, freeing up senior team members for review and exception-handling rather than data entry.
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's degree in Accounting required.
3–5 years of general ledger / staff accounting experience: journal entries, account reconciliations, AP/AR, and month-end close support.
Solid working knowledge of GAAP and double-entry accounting fundamentals.
Comfort with Excel for reconciliation and analysis work (lookups, pivot tables).
Workday Financials experience is a strong plus — this role will work inside Workday daily, including during an active configuration and clean-up project.
High attention to detail and comfort working through unresolved or messy data to find the right answer, rather than needing a fully built-out process to follow.
Self-starter who's comfortable in a lean, fast-moving environment — this is our first dedicated staff accounting hire, so some ambiguity comes with the territory.
Nice to Have
Experience in a professional services or consulting business (time-and-billing, project-based revenue).
Prior exposure to a system conversion or ERP implementation.
Interest in growing into a senior accountant or assistant controller role as the function matures.
