Staff Accountant

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real content. Must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: - About Calyx (company description) maybe "About the role"? Actually "About Calyx" is company description. Could be "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have "About the role" maybe includes description of role? But we have "About Calyx" describing company. Could treat as "About the role"? Might be better to have "About the role" summarizing role description. However we have "The Role" section. So we could map "The Role" to "About the role". Or we could have separate sections: "About the role" (maybe from The Role paragraph) and "Responsibilities" (What You Own). "Requirements" (Requirements). "Qualifications" maybe from Who You Are? Actually "Who You Are" is more like qualifications/skills. Could split into Skills and Qualifications. "Benefits" from Schedule and Benefits. "Pay" maybe not given except "Compensation is competitive and we share the full range in the first conversation." That's vague; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says compensation is competitive and we share the full range in the first conversation. That's not a specific number or range; it's vague. According to instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state Schedule and Benefits (Full-time, on-site, salaried...). So we can have Schedule and Benefits sections. Pay: we have only vague statement; better not to create Pay section because it's not specific. So omit Pay. Schedule: we have "Full-time, on-site, salaried. Some extra hours during month-end close." That's schedule info. So we can have Schedule section. Benefits: list unlimited PTO, health, dental, vision, 401(k), HSA, FSA, company-paid AD&D insurance. Now we need to include About the role: maybe combine "About Calyx" and "The Role" description. But we must not repeat job title. Provide substantive info. Let's extract: About Calyx: "Calyx Containers is a 10-year-old packaging company serving the cannabis industry from Salt Lake City. We design, manufacture, and source compliant packaging - rigid containers, flexible packaging, and labels - through a hybrid model that combines our own domestic digital manufacturing facility with an international sourcing and brokering network. This year we launched packOS, our new digital quoting and ordering platform, which is transforming how customers get from artwork to delivered product. We are a manufacturing business, a sourcing business, and now a technology-enabled one." The Role: "You own accounts payable and accounts receivable end to end, and you support the monthly close. This role sits at the intersection of finance and the operating teams - purchasing, receiving, production, sales, customer service, and shipping - and you are the person who makes sure vendors get paid accurately and on time, customers get billed correctly, and every subledger reconciles and stands up to an audit. This is a hands-on seat with real ownership and room to grow. You report to the Controller, who will back you up on the harder calls, and you will work with the sales team on cash and collections. It is also a role where we expect you to make the work better, not just do it: when you find a manual workaround where the system has a native feature, we want you to say so and fix it." We could combine these into About the role section (maybe two paragraphs). Or we could have About the role = About Calyx, and Responsibilities = What You Own etc. But instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should follow that list. So we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Schedule. Possibly also "Qualifications" and "Skills" separate. We have Requirements list: bullet points. We have Who You Are: traits (detail-obsessed, owner, builder, AI excitement, communicator, comfortable with change). That could be Skills or Qualifications. Could treat as Skills. We have Requirements: 2-4 years AP/AR experience, manufacturing experience plus, ERP experience, NetSuite plus, three-way match, month-end close basics, Excel, communication, AI tools, Bachelor's degree. We could put Requirements under Requirements heading. Qualifications maybe education? But we already have degree in Requirements. Could split: Qualifications = Bachelor's degree or equivalent. Skills = Excel, communication, AI tools, ERP, three-way match, etc. But we need to avoid duplication. Better: Requirements = experience and education. Skills = technical and soft skills (Excel, ERP, communication, AI, three-way match, etc.). Qualifications maybe not needed if we already covered. But we need to include only sections with real content. Could have Requirements and Skills. Could also have Qualifications (education). Let's decide: - About the role: combine company description and role overview. - Responsibilities: What You Own (AP, AR, Close and Cross-Functional, First 90 Days maybe). Could include all duties. - Requirements: 2-4 years AP/AR experience, manufacturing/packaging experience plus, ERP experience, NetSuite plus, three-way match, month-end close basics, Excel, communication, AI tools, Bachelor's degree or equivalent. - Skills: detail-obsessed, organized, owner of open items, builder of better processes, genuinely excited about AI-enabled productivity, clear communicator, comfortable in changing company. Could also include specific skills like NetSuite, three-way match, etc. But we already put those in Requirements. Might duplicate. Better to put soft skills in Skills, and hard requirements in Requirements. - Benefits: list. - Schedule: full-time on-site salaried, extra hours during month-end close. Now we need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML:

About the role

Calyx Containers is a 10-year-old packaging company serving the cannabis industry from Salt Lake City. We design, manufacture, and source compliant packaging - rigid containers, flexible packaging, and labels - through a hybrid model that combines our own domestic digital manufacturing facility with an international sourcing and brokering network. This year we launched packOS, our new digital quoting and ordering platform, which is transforming how customers get from artwork to delivered product. We are a manufacturing business, a sourcing business, and now a technology-enabled one.

You own accounts payable and accounts receivable end to end, and you support the monthly close. This role sits at the intersection of finance and the operating teams - purchasing, receiving, production, sales, customer service, and shipping - and you are the person who makes sure vendors get paid accurately and on time, customers get billed correctly, and every subledger reconciles and stands up to an audit. This is a hands-on seat with real ownership and room to grow. You report to the Controller, who will back you up on the harder calls, and you will work with the sales team on cash and collections. It is also a role where we expect you to make the work better, not just do it: when you find a manual workaround where the system has a native feature, we want you to say so and fix it.

Then Responsibilities: list duties. We need to capture all duties from What You Own (AP, AR, Close and Cross-Functional) and First 90 Days maybe as responsibilities. Let's extract bullet points: Accounts Payable: - Process vendor invoices for raw materials, packaging components, equipment, freight, and general operating costs. - Perform three-way matching of invoices against purchase orders and receiving reports, and resolve discrepancies with purchasing and receiving before anything is entered. - Prepare and execute weekly and monthly payment runs via ACH, wire, and check. - Reconcile vendor statements and clear outstanding balances. - Maintain accurate vendor files, including W-9s, tax IDs, and payment terms. - Support month-end close with AP accruals and related journal entries. - Support annual 1099 filing and compliance with company policy and applicable tax and reporting regulations, with the Controller. Accounts Receivable: - Generate and issue accurate customer invoices from shipments, sales orders, and service agreements. - Post and apply customer payments (check, ACH, wire, credit card) to open invoices. - Monitor aging, follow up on past-due accounts, and escalate early rather than late. - Coordinate with sales and customer service on billing issues, credits, and disputes; process credit memos, returns, and chargebacks. - Reconcile customer accounts and keep records clean in NetSuite. - Support collections strategy and customer credit review in an industry where counterparty diligence genuinely matters. Close and Cross-Functional: - Participate in month-end close: reconciliations, journal entries, and support to the Controller on bank reconciliation. - Prepare AP and AR reporting for leadership - aging summaries, payment schedules, and inputs to the weekly cash forecast. - Support internal and external audits with clean, retrievable documentation. - Find and fix the manual workarounds. If a process runs on a spreadsheet that the ERP could handle natively, propose the better way and build it. First 90 Days: - Day 30: You have run a full AP cycle and a full AR cycle, met purchasing, receiving, and customer service, and mapped how work actually flows into your queue. - Day 60: Vendor and customer accounts are reconciled, aging is trending the right direction, and you have brought us your first process improvement. - Day 90: The unapplied prepayment backlog in NetSuite is cleaned up and documented, your subledgers tie without drama, and close support from your side is routine. We can include these as responsibilities. Now Requirements: list. - 2-4 years of AP/AR or general accounting experience. - Manufacturing, packaging, or consumer products experience is a plus, not a requirement. - Hands-on experience in an ERP system. NetSuite experience is a strong plus; if you have worked in another ERP and learn systems fast, tell us. - Working knowledge of three-way match, month-end close basics, and general accounting principles. We will teach you 1099 filing if you have not owned it before. - Strong Excel skills and comfort reconciling high-volume transaction detail. - Clear written and verbal communication for working with vendors, customers, and internal partners. - Comfort using AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar) in real accounting work - reconciliations, documentation, vendor and customer correspondence - or a demonstrated hunger to get there fast. - Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a related field; equivalent relevant work experience may be substituted. Now Skills: maybe soft skills from Who You Are: - Detail-obsessed and organized. - Owner of open items: follow through without being reminded, raise problems early. - Builder of better processes: when you see a manual step that a system could do, you say so and then go do something about it. - Genuinely excited about AI-enabled productivity. - Clear communicator with people outside finance: can talk to vendors, customers, and production floor plainly and warmly. - Comfortable in a company that is changing: new platform, scaling facility, new ways of working. We could also include specific technical skills like NetSuite, three-way match, Excel, but those are in Requirements. To avoid duplication, we keep them there. Now Benefits: list. - Unlimited PTO - Health, dental, and vision coverage - 401(k) - HSA - FSA - Company-paid AD&D insurance Now Schedule: Full-time
