Senior Bookkeeper

Something Vintage Rentals is seeking a Senior Bookkeeper to own the day-to-day accounting function and serve as the in-house counterpart to our outsourced fractional CFO team. This is the seat where the numbers get done right and on time.

The ideal candidate will own accounts payable, payroll processing, and the reconciliation of all bank and credit card accounts, and you will be the primary point of contact between our office and our fractional CFO.

The role carries real ownership: our monthly financial statements, vendor relationships, and employees paychecks all depend on this position being executed accurately and on schedule. We are a close-knit, diverse company and are looking for someone who would be looking to join and grow with us.

Who We Are:

Something Vintage Rentals is a top specialty event rental company on the East Coast,

offering a colorful collection of trend-setting rentals that create fun, joy-filled weddings

and events. Need a lime green statement bar or handmade dinnerware or tinsel-

upholstered chairs?! We’ve got you! We serve the DC metro area and our unique luxury

inventory has made Something Vintage sought after up and down the East Coast. We

like to think of Something Vintage as a family– many of our employees have worked for

us for years and have moved up in the ranks from Team Members to Managers.

What You’ll Do:

Month-End Close and Reconciliations

• Complete reconciliation of all bank accounts and credit card accounts by business

day 5 of each month, without exception.

undeposited funds, resolve open items, and keep suspense and clearing accounts at

zero.

• Prepare recurring journal entries and month-end schedules as directed by the

fractional CFO.

• Deliver the close file and supporting documentation to the fractional CFO on the

agreed schedule so financial statements can be issued on time.

• Maintain organized, retrievable support for every entry — receipts, invoices,

statements, and approvals.

Accounts Payable

• Manage the payment cycle: prepare payment runs, obtain approvals, and execute

payments

• Maintain vendor records, W-9s, and terms; resolve vendor inquiries and statement

Liaison to the Fractional CFO

• Serve as the single point of contact between the office and the fractional CFO team.

• Gather, prepare, and submit requested documentation and schedules on the dates

requested.

• Answer transaction-level questions accurately and escalate anomalies rather than

working around them.

CFO, and confirm they are actually operating.

• Communicate proactively when a deadline is at risk — early, not after the fact.

General Accounting Support

• Maintain accurate customer and vendor master files.

• Prepare and file [sales tax / business license / other recurring filings] as required.
