Atlanta, GA, United States GHJ Full time

GHJ Search and Staffing serves as the recruitment division of GHJ, a prominent national accounting and advisory firm. Our team provides qualified Accounting and Finance professionals on a temporary and permanent basis across a broad range of industries. GHJ's relationship with our Global Advisory and Accounting Network provides the resources needed to better understand client's needs, attract a higher caliber of candidates and assess candidate potential.

Are you a skilled finance and accounting professional who thrives in a mission-focused environment where your work truly matters? A small but high-impact nonprofit is seeking a Nonprofit Finance & Accounting Manager to lead its internal financial operations and strengthen the organization's long-term financial health.

Reporting directly to the COO, this full-time role is ideal for someone who is hands-on, detail-oriented, and ready to take ownership of all internal accounting and financial management processes. You'll oversee daily accounting functions, partner with an external accounting CPA firm, and ensure financial accuracy, compliance, and transparency across the organization.

This organization operates on around a $1.6M budget, relies heavily on grants, and is entering an important transitional phase-including plans to reduce reliance on outsourced accounting support. Your leadership will directly shape financial stability and clarity during a pivotal period.

What You'll Do

    • You'll manage full-cycle accounting and serve as the organization's internal lead for finance and accounting, including:
    • Producing and analyzing monthly and annual financial statements in partnership with an external CPA firm
    • Ensuring compliance with internal policies, nonprofit GAAP, and applicable GASB standards
    • Overseeing accounts payable, accounts receivable, billing schedules, collections, and cash flow management
    • Supporting the annual budgeting process and ongoing budget-to-actuals reporting
    • Preparing audit materials and supporting annual audits and IRS filings
    • Partnering with leadership to strengthen financial systems, reporting tools, and cross-department workflows
    • Training team members on financial processes and helping translate financial information for non-financial staff
    • Managing financial systems (QuickBooks required; Salesforce and Zoho Books preferred)
    • Maintaining strong internal controls and audit-ready documentation
    • Supporting evaluations of new revenue models that contribute to long-term sustainability
What We're Looking For
    • The ideal candidate is a proactive and communicative accounting professional who can balance independent work with cross-functional collaboration. You bring:
    • 3-5+ years of nonprofit or small business accounting/finance experience
    • Strong understanding of full-cycle accounting, nonprofit GAAP, and GASB pronouncements (such as 87 & 96)
    • Experience preparing internal financial reports and supporting external audits
    • Proficiency in QuickBooks (required)
    • Advanced Excel skills and comfort working with financial systems
    • Familiarity with Salesforce and/or Zoho Books (preferred)
    • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build trust and explain financial concepts to non-financial teams
    • High integrity and a commitment to mission-driven work
    • A bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field is required.
What We Offer
    • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
    • Life insurance
    • 401(k) plan
    • Paid vacation, holidays, and personal time
    • Hybrid work schedule, Monday - Wednesday in office


$75,000 - $85,000 a year

If you're ready to lead accounting and finance functions in a mission-driven environment and want to make a meaningful impact, we'd love to connect with you.
