About Pavago

Pavago seeks a Senior Accountant to provide leadership in accounting operations, ensuring accurate financial reporting, compliance with GAAP / IFRS, and actionable insights for decision-making.

General Ledger & Journal Entries

  • Prepare and post journal entries for accruals, prepaids, fixed asset depreciation, payroll allocations, and intercompany transactions.
  • Maintain reconciliations across 15–30 key balance sheet accounts (cash, AR, AP, inventory, deferred revenue).

Month-End Close

  • Maintain detailed close checklists and ensure cross-departmental sign-offs.
  • Financial Reporting

  • Generate P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statements.
  • Prepare variance analyses comparing actuals vs. budget / forecast, and provide written commentary for leadership.
  • Compile supporting schedules for auditors and board meetings.
  • Audit & Compliance

  • Support external audits by preparing PBC (Prepared by Client) schedules.
  • Ensure tax filings (sales tax, property tax, corporate income tax) are accurate and timely.
  • Document and enforce internal accounting policies.
  • Process Improvement

  • Identify inefficiencies (manual reconciliations, duplicate entries) and recommend automation.
  • Implement accounting best practices and update SOPs.
  • Team Support

  • Review and approve work of staff accountants / bookkeepers.
  • Mentor junior team members on reconciliation, reporting, and GAAP treatment.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with FP&A on budget vs. actual reviews.
  • Coordinate with operations and sales to align revenue recognition.
  • What Makes You a Perfect Fit

  • Strong technical knowledge of GAAP / IFRS.
  • Ability to manage detailed tasks while providing high-level financial insights.
  • Strong communicator with both finance professionals and non-financial stakeholders.
  • Proactive in identifying risks and recommending improvements.
  • Required Experience & Skills (Minimum)

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related.
  • 4–5 years progressive accounting experience.
  • Proficiency in QuickBooks, NetSuite, Xero, or SAP.
  • Advanced Excel / Google Sheets (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, INDEX / MATCH, conditional formatting).
  • Ideal Experience & Skills

  • CPA / ACCA certification.
  • Experience with multi-entity consolidations and foreign currency accounting.
  • Background in SaaS, professional services, or real estate.
  • ERP implementation or automation project experience.
  • What Does a Typical Day Look Like

  • Morning : Review bank feeds and reconcile overnight transactions in NetSuite. Post accrual entries for payroll and vendor invoices. Run exception reports to spot anomalies.
  • Midday : Prepare draft P&L and review expense allocations against budget. Meet with operations to align on deferred revenue recognition for service contracts.
  • Afternoon : Mentor a junior accountant on preparing a fixed asset depreciation schedule. Review their reconciliation for credit card transactions and provide feedback.
  • End of Day : Update variance analysis template, prepare a summary memo for CFO, and document close checklist progress in Confluence.

  • Month-end close completed within 5 business days.
  • Consistent variance commentary provided to leadership.
