This is an opportunity to take on meaningful leadership responsibility within a close-knit company while living in one of Alaska’s most scenic outdoor communities. You will not be just another number in a large corporate finance department. You will work closely with employees, managers, auditors, consultants, and leadership while having a direct impact on the organization and the communities it serves.

🏔️ An Unmatched Outdoor Lifestyle: Valdez offers mountains, glaciers, wildlife, and Prince William Sound right outside your door. Enjoy hiking, fishing, skiing, kayaking, snowmobiling, boating, and countless other outdoor adventures.
🤝 A Close-Knit Company Culture: Join a smaller, community-focused organization where employees know one another, collaboration matters, and your contributions are visible.
📈 Meaningful Leadership: Lead and develop Accounting department employees, improve processes, strengthen financial controls, and serve as a trusted financial resource across the organization.
🌲 Work and Life in Balance: Build a rewarding career without giving up the lifestyle, space, and natural beauty that make Alaska special.
What You’ll Do
- Lead the daily workflow, scheduling, training, development, and performance management of Accounting department employees.
- Direct accounting practices for the organization and its affiliates.
- Maintain accurate accounting records, systems, procedures, internal controls, and financial services.
- Oversee accounts payable, payroll, plant accounting, inventory, and other accounting functions.
- Complete, review, and analyze monthly financial statements and significant variances.
- Serve as the primary contact for the annual external audit.
- Support regulatory filings, cost-separation studies, revenue requirements, rate development, and long-term financial planning.
- Monitor CABS information and complete or verify NECA and AECA requests and tariff information.
- Assist with annual budgeting and maintain budget-tracking processes.
- Prepare financial reports and analyses involving loans, depreciation rates, transactions, and system data.
- Coordinate annual business insurance renewals, internal allocations, liability certificates, and policy updates.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong accounting and financial management experience.
- Experience leading, mentoring, and developing accounting employees.
- Knowledge of financial statements, budgeting, audits, internal controls, and financial analysis.
- Strong attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy.
- The ability to manage multiple priorities and meet reporting deadlines.
- Excellent communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills.
- Telecommunications, utility, cooperative, regulatory, NECA, AECA, CABS, or rate-development experience is a plus.

Entry Level Accounting Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level accounting manager job?
Entry level accounting manager roles favor candidates who can show hands-on experience, even if it came from an internship, a college accounting program, or volunteer bookkeeping work. Employers at this level look for familiarity with general ledger processes, basic financial reporting, and common accounting software. A clear, organized resume that highlights relevant coursework and any supervised team or project responsibility gives candidates a real edge.
Which companies hire entry level accounting managers?
Companies hiring entry level accounting managers right now include Robert Half, Oscar Health, and Vaco, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. At this experience level, hiring covers a mix of mid-size regional businesses, growing startups, and larger organizations with structured junior finance programs that build new hires toward full management responsibility.
Are there remote entry level accounting manager jobs?
Yes, though most entry level roles still lean on-site for mentorship and team oversight reasons. About 50% of entry level accounting manager openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, so candidates open to in-office work will see the widest selection of opportunities at this stage.
Are these new grad accounting manager jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior accounting manager roles. A new grad friendly posting typically welcomes zero to two years of experience and treats internships, co-ops, or a strong academic portfolio as equivalent to work history. Look for language like 'recent graduates encouraged' or 'training provided' as clear signals the employer is open to candidates just starting out.
Which industries hire the most entry level accounting managers?
Entry Level accounting manager roles concentrate in Staffing & Recruiting, Technology & Software, and Banking & Financial Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. These sectors tend to drive early-career hiring because they maintain high transaction volumes, compliance requirements, or rapid growth that creates consistent demand for junior accounting leadership.
