Staff Accountant

CFS, Bakersfield, CA, United States

Salary max: $28.00

Duration: Full Time




Staff Accountant
Location: Bakersfield, CA (Onsite)
Salary: $60,000 – $72,000 DOE


Join a company where your work directly supports day-to-day operations and long-term growth. Our client is a well-established Bakersfield organization known for stability, strong leadership, and a team-oriented environment. This is a company that values dependable accounting professionals who help keep the business running efficiently and accurately.


This is more than a traditional staff accounting role. You’ll gain exposure across multiple areas of accounting while working closely with leadership and operations to support accurate financial reporting.


The Opportunity


As a Staff Accountant, you’ll assist with core accounting functions, month-end processes, and financial reporting while helping maintain accurate records across the organization. This role offers hands-on experience and the opportunity to grow within a stable business.


What You’ll Do




  • Assist with general ledger activity, journal entries, and account reconciliations




  • Support month-end close and preparation of financial reports




  • Maintain fixed asset, prepaid, and accrual schedules as needed




  • Assist with accounts payable, accounts receivable, and cash reconciliations




  • Partner with internal teams to ensure accurate financial data and reporting




What We’re Looking For




  • 2–4+ years of accounting experience




  • Strong understanding of general ledger and month-end close processes




  • Proficiency in Excel and accounting software




  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage deadlines




Why This Role Stands Out




  • Stable organization with long-term opportunity




  • Hands-on role with broad accounting exposure




  • High-visibility position supporting leadership and operations




  • Collaborative team environment




  • Opportunity for professional growth and advancement




If you’re looking for a role where you can build your skillset, contribute to a strong team, and grow your accounting career, this is a strong next step.
