Romania
We’re looking for a Mid-level Accountant to take strong ownership across Sauce’s accounting operations, with a primary focus on AP, Procure-to-Pay (P2P),vendor and contractor payments schedule and planning, bank and credit card reconciliations, accruals, contribute directly to P&L analysis and monthly close support. This is a high-ownership role: you’ll help ensure invoices, payments, reconciliations, and close processes are accurate, timely, well-documented, and scalable. You’ll work closely with our Controller in a lean, fast-moving finance team where accuracy, initiative, and good judgment matter more than hierarchy.
This is a fully remote contractor role. You’ll report directly to Sauce’s Controller.
What You’ll Do:
- Manage end-to-end AP: vendor onboarding, bill creation, payment preparation, payment tracking, and ledger maintenance
- Coordinate with business owners to ensure approvals, contracts, and supporting documentation are in place prior to payment
- Review and process contractor invoices; maintain contractor payment schedules and planning
- Maintain clean vendor master data, approval records, and payment support so every payment is audit-ready
- Proactively chase missing invoices, incomplete approvals, and unresolved vendor or contractor items before close
- Own the AP aging report and proactively resolve outstanding items, vendor queries, and disputed balances
- Post and review monthly accruals (vendor, payroll, prepaid, and other recurring items) with proper support, cut-off logic.
- Fixed asset and prepaid amortization entries
- Manage high-volume transaction reconciliations across multiple payment platforms (Stripe, Melio, bank accounts): match transactions to invoices, resolve discrepancies, flag unposted items, and resolve breaks same-day and ensure complete ledger coverage
- Import and reconcile credit card transactions; manage and clear expense reports, missing receipts, coding issues, and cost-center allocations
- Reconcile all balance sheet accounts each close cycle: AP, accrued liabilities, prepaid, fixed assets, and other current accounts with clear roll-forwards and aged-item commentary
- Handle intercompany reconciliations across U.S. and international entities
- Support preparation of monthly financial statements
- Prepare and deliver variance analysis (MoM) for internal stakeholders
- Flag anomalies and cost trends proactively - do not wait to be asked
- Maintain Finance file structure, backups, and audit-ready documentation
- Identify and implement process improvements in P2P and close workflows, including responsible use of AI, automation, templates, and structured exception tracking
- Maintain system integrations and flag breaks proactively (QuickBooks Online, Melio, Deel, Remote.com, Saasgrid, etc.)
