Senior Accountant

Switchyards Inc. Senior Accountant Atlanta, GA
· Full time

Switchyards is hiring its first dedicated accounting employee! The Senior Accountant will be the "glue" that connects our business operations to our financial data, moving us from reactive accounting to proactive financial management.

Switchyards is the world’s first neighborhood work club. We’re creating places to do our best thinking and most productive work. Near home. Around friends and neighbors. Always open — 24/7. For more information and a list of all club locations, visit

Based in Atlanta, Switchyards has pioneered a new consumer category for the future of work. With big plans to expand our work clubs nationwide, we’re quickly becoming one of the iconic brands of our generation—alongside other Atlanta greats like Home Depot, Waffle House, and Chick-fil-A.

Switchyards is scaling fast……but we’re just getting started. We will open work clubs in hundreds of great neighborhoods across the country, combining what we’ve learned through rapid growth with continued innovation—all while keeping the soulful Switchyards brand at the center. We’re on the hunt for a Senior Accountant to join us in 2026 and beyond.

We are looking for a proactive, systems-thinking Senior Accountant to become the first full-time member of our accounting team. This is a pivotal role where you will bridge the gap between the day-to-day operations of our clubs and our financial data and reporting. In addition to working directly with our existing outsourced accounting team, the Senior Accountant will be expected to own and improve critical accounting and financial processes of the business.

• Business Integration

• The "Clean-Up":

  Research and implement accounting treatments for one-off or complex transactions (e.g., debt instruments, revenue recognition, etc.).

  You understand that your growth in an organization is predicated on delivering more value to the business over time. You’re comfortable taking on new projects and identifying opportunities to automate and/or pass‑off existing responsibilities.

  You are naturally bothered by manual, repetitive tasks and you get excited about clean data. You have a track record of leveraging tools (Excel, QBO, Ramp) to automate manual tasks and reduce human error.
• Analytical Mindset
  :
  You don't just record a number; you want to know the why behind it. You aren't afraid to ask questions to get the context right.
• Detail-Obsessed but Goal-Oriented
