Staff Accountant

Location : Remote (New York–based luxury travel company)

Marchay, a leading luxury travel firm based in New York, is seeking a Staff Accountant to own our core accounting functions with a strong focus on commissions. This is a hands-on, detail-driven role that’s critical to keeping our financial operations accurate and organized. We’re looking for someone who can execute the fundamentals flawlessly today, with the potential to grow into a more strategic contributor over time.

In the short term, you’ll be responsible for maintaining clean, reconciled books in QuickBooks, managing commission payments and receivables, and ensuring we always have a clear picture of our P&L. Long term, the right hire could expand into budgeting, cash flow forecasting, KPI dashboard development, and full end-to-end P&L ownership — potentially evolving into a Controller-level role.

Key Responsibilities (Immediate Focus)

• Match commissions to payments and perform bank reconciliations
• Create internal reports on outstanding commissions (accounts receivable tracking)
• Chase down unpaid commissions from vendors (AR collections)
• Maintain and update the P&L in QuickBooks, ensuring accurate transaction categorization
• Assist with month-end close (basic accruals, reconciliations)
• Maintain organized records and documentation for audit-readiness
• Build SOPs, create and refine processes, and help manage accounting-related email workflows
