Own core accounting activities including month-end close, balance sheet reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, AP, AR, payroll accounting, intercompany accounting, and financial reporting. Manage payroll accounting across multiple countries, support audits, resolve discrepancies, and improve inefficient processes. Partner with FP&A, People Operations, and other teams while maintaining accurate multi-entity financial records.
Small businesses represent 99.9% of all companies, yet they're still forced to choose between clunky, outdated enterprise phone systems or their personal phones. This multi-billion dollar market has been overlooked for decades, left to cobble together solutions that slow them down instead of helping them grow.
Quo is changing that. We bring calls, texts, and customer information together into one easy-to-use, AI-powered platform. We’re not just building a phone system. We’re setting a new standard for how businesses connect with their customers.
Driven by our values, we move fast, build with determination, and obsess over delivering value to the businesses that have been underserved for far too long.
Today, Quo is trusted by more than 120,000 companies and rated #1 in customer satisfaction on G2. We’re backed by Y Combinator, Tiger Global, Craft Ventures, Slow Ventures, and other top-tier investors. It’s safe to say we’re onto something big.
About the roleWe're looking for a Senior Accountant to help run the books as we scale. You'll own core pieces of month-end close, keep our AP, AR, and payroll accounting clean, and make sure our multi-entity operations reconcile every period without drama.
This isn't a narrow, one-task role. You'll touch the full close cycle: journal entries, reconciliations, intercompany accounting, and the judgment calls that come with a growing, cross-border business. You'll report to our Senior Accounting Manager and work closely with the broader Finance team. If you want ownership over real accounting work and a say in how we build our processes as we scale, we want to hear from you!
- Month-End Close & Reporting
- Maintain key balance sheet schedules, including prepaid assets and fixed assets, and book the related monthly entries
- Assist with variance analysis, explaining P&L and balance sheet fluctuations
- Roll forward and update the monthly financial reporting package (KPIs, headcount, P&L)
- Accounts Payable & Vendor Management
- Process incoming vendor bills for coding accuracy and route them for approval
- Review credit card transactions for correct coding, chase down receipts, and flag ineligible spend
- Onboard new vendors, collect required tax forms, and issue annual tax documents
- Follow up on overdue invoices and resolve payment disputes
- Payroll Accounting
- Own payroll accounting for our Canada, US, and international teams, spanning employees and contractors
- Prepare and reconcile payroll journal entries each pay run, resolving discrepancies before they hit the books
- Handle country-specific requirements like retirement plan contributions, leave pay, and related government filings
- Process Improvement & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Identify and fix manual, error-prone processes. If a reconciliation takes three hours and could take thirty minutes, we want you to improve that
- Partner with FP&A, People Ops, and other departments to keep financial data accurate and on time
- Support internal and external audits with clean documentation and clear answers
About you
Required:
- 4+ years of full-cycle accounting experience, including direct ownership of month-end close tasks
- Solid US GAAP knowledge, with hands-on experience in account reconciliations and accruals
- Experience with a modern accounting system (Rillet, NetSuite, QuickBooks, or similar) and an expense/AP tool (Ramp, Bill.com, or similar)
- Comfort with payroll accounting concepts: gross-to-net, benefits accruals, retirement plan contributions
- Strong Excel/Sheets skills. You should be able to build a reconciliation from scratch, not just fill in a template
- Strong communication skills. You'll work with employees and stakeholders across the business who don't have an accounting background, so you need to explain financial concepts and processes in plain language
Strongly Preferred:
- Experience working across multiple legal entities or currencies
- CPA, CPA-track, or equivalent designation (CPA Canada, ACCA)
- Experience at a high-growth SaaS or subscription business
- Prior audit experience (public accounting background or supporting SOX controls)
