About the roleAs a Staff Accountant at PHM, you’ll join the company at a formative stage of our finance function, with the opportunity to take on meaningful responsibility early in your career and grow alongside a rapidly scaling organization.
This role is intentionally scoped at the Staff level to provide hands-on exposure across the full accounting lifecycle and clear room for development. You’ll be doing real work—across accounts payable, accounts receivable, reconciliations, close, and analysis—not simply pushing transactions through a highly automated system.
In return, you’ll be trained and mentored by experienced finance leaders with strong public accounting backgrounds who are deeply invested in developing talent. This is a role for someone who is inquisitive, detail-oriented, and not afraid to get into the weeds. If you’re early in your career and looking for a place where your work truly matters, this role was designed with you in mind.
What You’ll AccomplishAs a Staff Accountant, you will:
Build a strong foundation across core accounting functions by owning hands-on work from day one
Support accurate, timely month-end, quarterly, and year-end close processes as PHM grows
Develop strong judgment, discipline, and analytical skills by working closely with senior finance leadership
In this role, you will:
Process accounting transactions in accordance with U.S. GAAP and PHM internal control policies
Prepare monthly account reconciliations, journal entries, and supporting financial schedules
Assist with revenue recognition and expense analysis
Support preparation of monthly financial statements and variance analysis versus budget and forecast
Process accounts payable and accounts receivable, including proper coding, cash disbursements, and cash applications
Assist with monthly, quarterly, and year-end close activities
Prepare audit schedules and documentation for financial statement and compliance audits
Partner with internal stakeholders across operations and clinical support teams
Identify opportunities to improve processes and help scale finance operations thoughtfully as PHM grows
To be successful as a Staff Accountant at PHM, you bring:
A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (required)
1–3 years of accounting experience in an Audit/Assurance team at a public accounting firm or a fast-growing company
Exposure to U.S. GAAP and a strong desire to continue building technical depth
Strong Excel skills, including pivot tables and lookups
Experience with accounting systems or ERPs (Sage Intacct preferred)
CPA or CPA-eligible status (preferred, not required)
High attention to detail and pride in producing accurate, well-organized work
Curiosity, strong follow-through, and comfort asking thoughtful questions
Analytical thinking—not just task execution
The ability to manage deadlines and priorities independently in a fully remote environment
Compensation
The target base salary for this position is $68,000 – $75,000.

Individual pay may vary from the target range as a number of factors including market forces, experience, location, disparities in market data, and other relevant business considerations may all factor into final compensation.
LocationThis is a remote role requiring that you live in and physically perform all work in the United States.
