Junior Accountant

What is the role?

We are currently seeking a detail-oriented Junior Accountant to join our finance team. This role is focused on the day-to-day transactional accounting that keeps our business running — processing payables, reconciling card and bank activity, managing payment disputes, and supporting our senior accountant through the month-end close. As a key member of our finance team, you will report to the Controller and work closely with the Senior Accountant, contributing to the accuracy and timeliness of our financial records across multiple entities.

The Junior Accountant owns the recurring transactional workflows that flow into our close — daily bank monitoring, AP processing in Bill.com, corporate card coding in Ramp, expense report processing in Expensify, and payment dispute responses across Stripe and Fiserv. You will support our Senior Accountant on month-end close tasks within FloQast and Sage Intacct, including bank reconciliations and standard schedules. Success in this role means consistent, accurate, and on-time execution of recurring deadlines across multiple entities, with the discipline to flag exceptions early rather than letting them become close issues.

If you are a driven individual with a passion for numbers and a desire to thrive in a collaborative high-growth environment, we invite you to apply and become an integral part of our team at Paradigm.

In this role, you will:

Support the day-to-day management of accounting and finance with a focus on efficient processes

Monitor bank account balances daily across multiple entities; flag low-balance accounts and unusual activity before they create issues

Process accounts payable in Bill.com: enter invoices, route for approval, and ensure timely payment

Code corporate card transactions in Ramp; reconcile Ramp charges and process payoffs

Review and process employee expense reports in Expensify, ensuring proper coding and policy compliance

Manage payment disputes and chargebacks across Stripe and Fiserv: triage incoming disputes, coordinate with support teams to gather evidence, and submit timely responses within processor deadlines

Escalate high-dollar or complex disputes to the Senior Accountant or Controller with a complete evidence package

Process customer cancellations and affiliate payouts on their recurring schedules

Prepare and submit monthly sales tax filings

Support month-end close in FloQast and Sage Intacct: prepare bank reconciliations, Ramp reconciliations, prepaid and fixed asset schedules, and standard accruals under Senior Accountant review

Maintain accurate documentation and process records for all recurring workflows, supporting audit readiness across our entities

Build a working understanding of our Sage Intacct chart of accounts and entity structure to accurately code transactions across our businesses

Identify opportunities to tighten automation rules in Ramp, Bill.com, and Expensify to reduce manual effort and exception handling

Qualifications

Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business preferred; relevant work experience may substitute

0–2 years of experience in bookkeeping, accounts payable, or accounts receivable; experience in a multi-entity environment is a plus

Must have strong Excel skills, including report creation, report formatting, charting, and use of common financial functions (vlookups, sumifs, pivot tables, etc.)

Solid understanding of debits, credits, and basic accounting principles; comfortable reading and reconciling general ledger activity

Sage Intacct experience is preferred but not required

Hands-on experience with Bill.com, Ramp, and Expensify is strongly preferred; familiarity with FloQast is a plus

Experience handling payment processor disputes or chargebacks (Stripe, Fiserv, or similar) is a plus
