Title: Staff Accountant | Philippines, Work from Home
Company: Rockbridge CFO
Location: Philippines
About Rockbridge CFO
Rockbridge CFO LLC is a fractional CFO firm serving service-based, people-powered businesses. We embed directly in our clients' finance functions, delivering CFO-grade financial leadership, management reporting, and operational clarity. Our work is hands-on, detail-driven, and high-stakes. We hold ourselves and everyone on our team to that standard.
The Opportunity
We are hiring a Staff Accountant to support our growing client portfolio. This is not a data-entry role. We need someone who understands accounting fundamentals and who can apply that knowledge across multiple clients operating on different platforms.
Critical success factor: You bring accounting judgment first and use tools to support your decisions, not the other way around. We need someone who asks "does this make sense?" before "what does the system say?" This role has a clear growth path. If you are exceptional, you will grow into a senior-level position as the firm expands. We are building something and want someone who wants to grow with it.
What You Will Do
• Perform daily and monthly bookkeeping across multiple client accounts simultaneously
• Execute bank reconciliations and resolve discrepancies proactively
• Manage accounts receivable and accounts payable processes
• Support month-end close including journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations
• Work in both QuickBooks Online (QBO) and Microsoft Business Central
• Own and maintain process documentation for every workflow you manage
• Communicate clearly with the Principal CFO on status, issues, and exceptions
• Identify errors and surface them immediately
What We Require
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• Minimum 3 years of accounting experience, preferably in a multi-client environment
• Proficiency in QuickBooks Online — you must know it, not just be familiar with it
• Proficiency in or demonstrated ability to learn Microsoft Business Central (Dynamics 365)
• Strong command of accrual accounting concepts
• Advanced Excel skills including formulas, pivot tables, and data reconciliation
• Exceptional attention to detail
• Strong written English communication skills
• Reliable high-speed internet and a professional home office setup
What Will Set You Apart
• Experience working with ERP-level accounting systems beyond QBO
• Background supporting multiple clients simultaneously in a fractional or outsourced finance model
• CPA (Philippines) or CMA (Certified Management Accountant), or working toward either designation
• Experience with process documentation and building SOPs
• Comfort asking questions and flagging issues early rather than working around them
What You Can Expect
• Direct mentorship from a US-based CFO with 15+ years of corporate finance experience
• A clear path for growth into a senior accounting role for the right person
• Highly competitive compensation commensurate with experience
• Private health insurance, 15 days of paid time off, internet allowance
• Equipment will be provided
Work Schedule
This role offers flexibility with two firm requirements after training is completed:
• You must be available online from 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM Eastern Time, Monday to Friday.
• You must be available the first five U.S. business days of each month to support month-end close.
Outside these requirements, you may structure your remaining daily work hours as you prefer, provided deadlines are met and communication remains timely.
We observe a Philippine holiday schedule rather than a US one. A full holiday calendar will be provided at onboarding.
This Role Is NOT a Fit If…
• You have only ever managed one client's books in a single system
• You wait until reconciliation to catch errors rather than questioning entries in real time
• You struggle to clearly articulate your reasoning or follow complex questions in English
• You prefer highly structured environments where processes rarely change
