US Accountant (Remote – Philippines)

Not just a contract. This is your career.

At Cloud Accountant Staffing (CAS), we don't hire freelancers. We build long-term careers for world-class accounting professionals who want stability, growth, and meaningful client impact.

We partner with top-tier U.S. CPA firms and fast-growing companies that are looking for serious professionals — not short-term help.

If you're an experienced U.S. Accountant who takes pride in precision, client advisory, and high standards — this role is built for you.

Why This Role Matters

You won't just be managing books and reports.

You will become a trusted extension of the U.S.-based firms — supporting real clients, producing insightful financial reporting, and helping businesses make confident financial decisions.

This is a high-trust, high-impact role for professionals who want:

• Long-term career growth
• Direct exposure to U.S. firms and clients

• Prepare timely financial statements (Balance Sheets, P&L, Cash Flow) with variance analysis and actionable insights
• Build budgets, rolling forecasts, and cash-flow projections; monitor burn and runway for SMB clients
• Reconcile bank, credit card, merchant, and loan accounts; investigate and resolve discrepancies
• Run payroll accurately and on time, ensuring compliance with approvals and deductions
• Standardize checklists, SOPs, and close calendars; identify opportunities for automation and efficiency
• Collaborate with U.S.-based teammates and clients: join calls, translate financials into plain English, and flag risks/opportunities
• Maintain audit-ready documentation and organized, clean records

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
• Minimum 3 years of U.S. accounting/bookkeeping experience (public practice or industry)
• QuickBooks Online proficiency (required); experience with Xero, Bill.com, G-Suite/Excel is a plus
• Experienced CPA or non-CPA — both welcome
• Strong English communication skills (written & spoken) and client-facing experience
• Ownership mentality: organized, deadline-driven, and able to manage multiple clients without sacrificing accuracy
• Comfortable working U.S. business hours (night shift PH-based)

Nice to Have:

• Tech-curious and automation-minded (workflow rules, integrations, reporting tools)
• Experience with diverse U.S. industries or multi-entity accounting
