Job Description

Senior Accounting Manager

Location: Remote

Vesta is a USA-based climate startup with a mission to help meet the challenge of the climate crisis by removing billions of tons of excess atmospheric carbon dioxide through Coastal Carbon Capture (CCC). CCC is a nature-based negative emission approach that deploys carbon-removing sand made from the natural mineral olivine in coastal areas. This leads to significant CO2 sequestration from the atmosphere and has the potential to be the most cost-effective, scalable method of permanent carbon dioxide removal on earth. Vesta is a fast-growing company consisting of scientists, operators, and engineers conducting laboratory studies and field deployments of CCC at domestic and international locations. The goal is to determine if CCC can be a safe, effective, and affordable means of permanently sequestering excess atmospheric CO2 - and if so to scale it up as rapidly as can be done safely.

Job Description:

Reporting to the CFO, the Senior Accounting Manager is responsible for managing the accounting department, maintaining GAAP compliance, generating financial reports, monthly, quarterly and year end closing and reconciliation responsibilities, GL balancing, audit preparation and completion, payroll management, support for tax and regulatory compliance as well as general departmental processes.

  • Supervise billing, receivables, payables, cash receipts, cash disbursements, and general ledger functions
  • Document and maintain financial processes and controls by preparing and recommending policies and procedures
  • Work with service providers to prepare annual tax filings
  • Assist with annual budgeting, monthly variance reporting, and aspects of forecasting, as needed

We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills- because reversing climate change is going to require a diverse and unprecedented workforce.
