About the role

Bevara focuses on empowering its team members with the tools and support needed to achieve their professional goals. The company fosters a vibrant, interactive team culture that values collaboration and promotes a healthy work-life balance.

Responsibilities

  • Manage the company's lease portfolio under ASC 842, including classification, amortization schedules, and related journal entries and disclosures.
  • Own POC calculations and revenue recognition for long-term contracts under ASC 606, coordinating with project/operations teams to ensure accurate cost-to-complete estimates.
  • Prepare journal entries, account reconciliations, and supporting schedules as part of a timely, accurate month-end close process.
  • Design, document, and implement accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls where none currently exist, replacing ad hoc practices with repeatable ones.
  • Perform account analysis and reconciliations across balance sheet and income statement accounts, identifying and resolving discrepancies.
  • Research and apply US GAAP to new or complex transactions as the business grows, and draft accounting memos to document conclusions.
  • Serve as a key point of contact for external auditors, preparing schedules and support for annual reviews or audits.
  • Work with FP&A, operations, and other departments to ensure accounting practices reflect how the business actually operates.

Requirements

  • Active CPA license required.
  • 3+ years of relevant accounting experience (a mix of public accounting and industry experience is a plus).
  • Strong working knowledge of US GAAP, with hands-on experience in lease accounting (ASC 842) and/or revenue recognition for long-term contracts (ASC 606).
  • Experience building or improving accounting processes, not just executing existing ones — comfort working in ambiguity and creating structure from scratch.
  • Strong Excel skills; experience with an ERP/accounting system (e.g., NetSuite, QuickBooks, Sage, Dynamics) required.
  • Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple deliverables against close deadlines.

Qualifications

  • Clear written and verbal communication skills — you'll be documenting policies and explaining technical accounting to non-accountants.
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.

Skills

  • Technical accounting research
  • Journal entries & month-end close
