Job Details


Igiugig Village Council is now hiring an ACCOUNTANT


This position reports to Director of Accounting & Finance and Tribal Administrator


About IVC

Igiugig Village Council is the tribal government of Igiugig, Alaska, stewarding the programs, grants, and

finances that serve the community. We run a lean, capable team where reliable people are trusted to own their work and see it through.


The Role

Who Thrives Here

You are a natural problem solver who enjoys working with facts, data, and numbers. You become an

expert quickly in any subject you take on, and you like enough variety and change to stay engaged. Once

You are someone who sweats every detail until the work is exact and complete. You protect the

organization by following process, and you sharpen that process wherever you see the chance. You are

comfortable holding others accountable, and you do not let procedures slip.

If you enjoy working within systems, improving efficiency, and solving problems, we'd like to hear from you.


What You'll Do:

• Financial recordkeeping: Maintain permanent digital and printed records of transactions, reports,

and data.

• Budgets & grants: Maintain budget information in the accounting software reflective of approved

grants and programs, and track grant budgets and procurement documentation.

• Reconciliations: Perform periodic account reconciliations, including inventory and fuel meter

readings.

• Reporting: Provide financial reports to departments and directors, and financial information to grant

administrators and consultants as authorized.

• Accounts payable & receivable: Manage AP and AR accurately and on time.

• Audit support: Assist in the annual single audit.

• Payroll: Process payroll and maintain supporting documentation.

• Systems & security: Keep financial software current and monitor related cybersecurity concerns.

• CFO support: Assist in all aspects of Village finances as directed by the CFO.

• Standards: Maintain the highest ethical standards, plus other duties as assigned.


Must-Haves

• Bachelo;s degree or higher, a relevant program equivalent, or proven experience in finance and

accounting.

• Two or more years of similar work experience.

• Proficiency in accounting software, spreadsheets, and related programs.

• High school diploma or GED.


Nice-to-Haves

• Experience with grant fund accounting and single audits.

• Familiarity with tribal, nonprofit, or government finance.

• Comfort working remote or hybrid with a distributed team.
