Accounting Manager - Remote

Overview

Solace is a healthcare advocacy marketplace that connects patients and families to experts who help them understand and take charge of their personal health.

In Short

• Own key areas of the monthly close, including timelines, checklists, journal entries, and review-ready support.
• Prepare and/or review complex reconciliations and rollforwards (accruals, payroll, deferred items, reserves as applicable).
• Build and enforce a clean close cadence: cutoff discipline, variance analysis, and clear ownership.
• Partner with FP&A to ensure actuals are reliable and variances are understood (and not explained away).
• Strengthen accounting operations: improve workflows for expense coding, approvals, and documentation.
• Support audit/tax readiness: maintain PBC-ready support, respond to requests, and drive issues to resolution.
• Implement lightweight internal controls appropriate for our stage (segregation, approvals, change logs, close sign-offs).
• Help evaluate and improve tools/systems (ERP, expense platform, AP tools) and establish scalable processes.
• Mentor junior teammates as the team grows (review work, level up documentation and rigor).

Requirements

• 4+ years of accounting experience; Big 4 background preferred.
• Experience in an operating environment (startup/scale-up or public company) where you participated in a real close cycle.
• Demonstrated ownership of meaningful close areas (not just assisting).
• Strong technical accounting fundamentals and sound judgment (knowing when to escalate).
• Strong Excel/Sheets skills; comfort working with large datasets and imperfect inputs.
• Clear communication and cross-functional partnering. You’re able to push for what’s needed without creating friction.

Benefits

• Fully remote U.S. team.
• Opportunity to redefine healthcare.
• Work alongside a mission-driven team.
• Fast-paced startup environment.
• Mentorship opportunities.
