About Us

Elevation Energy Solutions is a US-based residential solar installation and field services company currently operating across five states, including California, Texas, and Arizona, with a goal of expanding to all fifty US states.

The Role

We are hiring an US - Accounting Manager to own day-to-day accounting for our US entities. This is a working manager role: you run daily accounting operations yourself while building the team around you. You will close the books, reconcile the accounts, and produce financials that go to lenders and ownership, with a defined path to Senior Accounting Manager as the function scales. If you are looking for a purely supervisory seat, this is not it. If you want to build a US accounting function from the inside and grow with it, this role is the right fit for you.

Roles & Responsibilities

Own the month-end close for multiple US entities: journal entries, accruals, prepaids, depreciation, and close checklist management in Xero

Perform bank, credit card, and payment platform reconciliations across multiple accounts

Manage accounts receivable, including reconciliation of financing partner payments, deductions, and clawbacks against project records

Manage accounts payable workflows: vendor bills, approvals, and payment scheduling

Record and reconcile intercompany transactions between US and international entities

Book payroll journal entries and reconcile payroll reports to the general ledger

Prepare monthly financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) with variance commentary for management and lenders

Clean up and reconcile historical periods, and document accounting processes and SOPs as you go

Support external accountants and lenders during reviews, audits, and due diligence

Hire, train, and manage junior accountants as the team grows

Required Skills & Qualifications

5 to 8 years of accounting experience, with at least 3 years working on US client books at an outsourced accounting, KPO, or offshore staffing firm, or in a US-facing GCC finance team

A working manager’s mindset: you stay hands-on in the daily work while developing the team around you

Working knowledge of US GAAP and the full accounting cycle

Hands-on experience with Xero or QuickBooks Online (Xero strongly preferred)

Demonstrated ownership of month-end close, not just participation in it

Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills: pivot tables, lookups, reconciliation workpapers

Strong written and spoken English; comfortable communicating directly with US management

Willingness to work night shift aligned to US business hours

B.Com or M.Com required; CA Inter, CMA, MBA (Finance), or CPA/EA in progress is a plus

Nice to Have

Experience with solar, construction, contracting, or other project-based businesses (job costing, project-level P&L)

Exposure to multi-entity structures and consolidation

Familiarity with Gusto, Bill.com, Wise, or similar US finance tools

Experience building processes or teams from an early stage

Growth Path

This role is designed to grow into Senior Accounting Manager within 18 to 24 months, based on performance, as the India accounting team expands. You will report to US senior leadership and be a foundational member of the finance function.
