Senior Accountant - Book Cleanup & Integration (Remote LATAM)

About the role

Stay'd is a consortium of short-term rental management companies building one unified brand across US markets, and it needs a Senior Accountant to clean up each brand's books before they join the shared-services accounting team. The role sits in Finance & Accounting, reports to the Controller, and is remote with working-hour overlap with U.S. Eastern Time.

Key responsibilities

• Clean up each brand's historical books (typically the trailing 24-36 months) so they stand up to a Quality of Earnings review.
• Correct misclassifications, clear suspense and uncategorized balances, and document every material adjustment.
• Prepare clean monthly P&Ls, balance sheets and supporting schedules by brand and consolidated, plus the workpapers requested by diligence teams.
• Reconcile operating, payroll and credit card accounts, bring catch-up months current and keep each brand closed and reconciled monthly.
• Perform three-way reconciliations of owner trust and guest deposit accounts, resolve shortages, overages and commingling, and escalate regulatory issues.
• Ensure trust accounting complies with state real estate and vacation rental rules, and tie owner statements and payouts to trust balances.
• Map each brand's chart of accounts to the Stay'd standard, align accounting policies and prepare data for NetSuite migration.
• Tie PMS data (Guesty, Track, Streamline) to the general ledger and write month-end close checklists and reconciliation procedures.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in accounting or finance.
• 4+ years of accounting experience, including hands-on cleanup or catch-up bookkeeping.
• Strong command of bank reconciliations and month-end close.
• Experience with trust or escrow accounting, ideally in property management, real estate or vacation rentals.
• Comfort working across several entities at once.
• Strong written English and availability to overlap with U.S. Eastern Time.
• A CPA or progress toward licensure is a plus; experience with QoE reviews, audits or M&A due diligence is a plus.

Required skills

• QuickBooks Online
• Advanced Excel (lookups, pivot tables, reconciliation workpapers)
• NetSuite (a plus, especially multi-subsidiary setups or data migrations)
• Familiarity with short-term rental PMS platforms is a plus

Pay is USD 1,800-2,500 per month depending on experience.
