About Us
Kayana connects skilled Filipino professionals with global companies for long-term, full-time remote roles. We work directly with each client to match candidates to the right team, then provide ongoing support throughout the engagement. This role is with one of our clients — a U.S.-based mortgage lending and servicing company — and is fully remote during U.S. business hours.
About the Role
We're hiring Senior Staff Accountants to take ownership of core accounting and reconciliation work across the client's corporate accounting and loan servicing functions. These are hands-on, detail-driven roles for accountants who can independently own a process end to end — from daily transaction work through month-end close.
There are openings across a few focus areas, and placement depends on your background and fit:
- Cash & Treasury — daily cash reconciliations and banking activity
- Loan Portfolio Reconciliation — loan-level accounting and servicing-ledger tie-outs
- Financial Reporting & Intercompany — monthly reporting packages and intercompany reconciliations
You don't need experience in all three. Apply if the core work below fits your strengths, and we'll align you to the right opening.
What You'll Do
Across all focus areas, you'll:
- Perform account and balance sheet reconciliations and research and resolve reconciling items
- Prepare and post journal entries
- Import and validate financial activity, and prepare supporting schedules and workbooks
- Support the monthly and year-end close process
- Escalate discrepancies, exceptions, and unusual transactions
- Prepare schedules and documentation for leadership and audit requests
Depending on your assigned focus area, you'll also:
- Cash & Treasury: Reconcile operating and custodial accounts daily, stand up a standardized bank-activity import and validation routine, clear the backlog of open reconciling items, and support treasury and short-term liquidity reporting.
- Loan Portfolio Reconciliation: Reconcile Loans Held for Investment and Loans Held for Sale, tie the servicing ledger to QuickBooks Enterprise, track protective advances and unpaid charges at the loan level, and reconcile construction draw activity and reserves.
- Financial Reporting & Intercompany: Prepare monthly reporting packages, maintain P&L and balance sheet schedules, process accruals, and perform intercompany reconciliations across multiple entities each close.
