Accounting Operations Manager | Hybrid Flexibility + Outstanding Benefits

Birmingham, Alabama

$90,000 – $105,000

Are you an experienced accounting professional seeking a role that truly values flexibility, purpose, and long-term growth? A highly respected Birmingham-based organization is adding an Accounting Operations Manager to its team due to continued stability and growth.

This is a career-defining opportunity for someone who wants meaningful work, exceptional work–life balance, and a clear path to future Controller-level leadership. The role offers a flexible hybrid schedule and best-in-class benefits, including excellent health coverage and a generous PTO and holiday program.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Hybrid work schedule with real flexibility
• Exceptional benefits and strong organizational stability
• Clear long-term growth potential to Controller
• Supportive, mission-driven culture with minimal overtime

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Overseeing day-to-day accounting operations, including AP, AR, general ledger, and payroll
• Ensuring timely, accurate financial reporting in accordance with GAAP
• Establishing and maintaining internal controls, policies, and procedures
• Preparing and reviewing monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements
• Partnering with leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning
• Leading, mentoring, and developing a small, high-performing accounting team
• Supporting audits and serving as a key liaison with external auditors

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• CPA strongly preferred; nonprofit experience is a plus
• 4+ years of progressive accounting experience with leadership exposure
• Strong GAAP knowledge and financial reporting expertise
• Proficiency with accounting systems and advanced Excel skills
• Strong communication skills with a collaborative, hands-on leadership style
• Ability to thrive in a flexible, hybrid work environment

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to grow professionally without sacrificing balance or flexibility.
