  • Reviewing and validating school account configurations in Clarity, identifying setup errors and edge cases before they cause downstream problems.

  • Assisting school clients with audit preparation.
  • Analyzing client account mapping and identifying opportunities for improvement in accordance with best practices.
  • Serving as the accounting subject-matter expert and escalation point for implementation and client success teams.
  • Diagnosing whether recurring issues are a configuration gap, a training gap, or a product gap, and feeding that back to the product team.
  • Building the playbooks, documentation, and repeatable processes that let us scale this function - including identifying what should be handled by CSMs.
  • Attending regular team/company meetings.
  • Performing other duties as assigned.

  • Strong understanding of general ledger accounting, journal entries, reconciliations, month-end close, and financial reporting.
  • Experience handling multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and responsiveness.
  • Ability to analyze financial data and identify discrepancies.
  • Comfortable explaining accounting concepts to non-accounting stakeholders.
  • Sound judgment about when to advise, when to escalate, and when to push back on a school's approach.
  • Experience with QuickBooks, Sage Intacct, NetSuite, or similar financial systems.
  • Growth mindset and desire to join a rapidly growing team.
  • Excellent organizational, time management, and communication skills.
  • Advanced spreadsheet skills.
