Switchyards Inc. Senior Accountant Atlanta, GA · Full time Company website

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.

About Switchyards Inc.

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 switchyards.com.

Description

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.


The Opportunity

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 out-sourced accounting team, the Senior Accountant will be expected to own and improve critical accounting and financial processes of the business.

What You’ll Do

  • Business Integration: Serve as the primary accounting point of contact for employees and accounts payable vendors. Leverage understanding and insights gained through internal and external conversations to translate business activities into accurate accounting treatments.
  • Process Architecture: Gain a deep understanding of our existing processes and develop v2 processes, workflows, and templates that will deliver value to the organization over time. This includes, but is not limited to, the month end close process, accounts payable, requisitions, financial reporting, budgeting, and specialized accounting treatments.
  • Quality Control: Review the work of our outsourced accounting team. You will provide the first line of defense in transaction coding and reconciliation accuracy - ensuring that expenses and capital outlays are accurately coded to the correct club and department.
  • The "Clean-Up": Take ownership of the general ledger. You will document SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) to ensure that institutional knowledge stays within the company and assist with the month/year-end accounting closes via detailed P&L reviews and ensuring all balance sheet accounts are fully reconciled and supported by clear documentation.
  • Technical Problem Solving: Research and implement accounting treatments for one-off or complex transactions (e.g., debt instruments, revenue recognition, etc.).

What You’ll Bring

  • Team-First Mentality: You’re willing to take on work when a clear owner is not present. You understand that rolling up your sleeves and doing some heavy lifting not only moves the ball forward, but provides a better understanding of the business’ ground level truths.
  • Growth Mindset: 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.
  • The "Fixer" & “Systems Architect”: 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: You care about the pennies, but understand materiality and priorities. You understand that timely-reporting helps the business make decisions.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 3-5 years of progressive accounting experience. Solid understanding of GAAP, specifically revenue recognition, fixed asset accounting, and lease accounting.
  • QBO Expertise: Advanced proficiency in QuickBooks Online (QBO) or similar accounting software, specifically in a multi-entity/multi-location environment.
  • Software Skills: Advanced proficiency in Excel (data clean-up & analysis, pivot tables, and financial modeling), and familiarity with Ramp or similar expense management tools.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance. CPA or CPA-candidate is a plus.
  • Communication: Proven ability to work effectively with internal stakeholders and remote/outsourced teams.

Bonus Skills

  • Public accounting or high-growth startup experience is a major plus
  • Financial planning and analysis experience
  • Experience with multi-unit accounting, brick and mortar businesses, and/or consumer subscription revenue models

Perks & Benefits

  • Strong compensation package, including competitive market-rate salary, employee stock options, a growing benefits package with company-sponsored health and dental coverage, supplemental insurance offerings, and more. We want you to thrive here!
  • A passionate and vibrant work culture that promotes personal growth, collaboration, and risk-taking.
  • Flexible and unlimited vacation policy.
  • A Switchyards membership for you and your family.
  • 1000000000000001 cups of coffee.
