Staff Accountant

Join Notion, a fast-growing global company, as a Staff Accountant. In this role, you will be a key player on the Corporate Accounting team, focusing on close activities, reconciliations, and international statutory reporting. You will collaborate with teammates to strengthen accounting processes and support Notion's growth into new countries. By your 90th day, you will contribute meaningfully to close activities and take ownership of global reconciliation work. By the end of your first year, you will become a trusted partner, strengthen controls and accounting processes, and raise the bar on documentation and process quality.

• Be a key team player across monthly, quarterly, and annual close: Prepare accurate journal entries and adjustments with clear supporting documentation; support AP and cash reconciliations, including flux analysis and commentary; and complete close work on time.
• Help establish reliable, repeatable global accounting processes as Notion expands into new countries. By your 90th day, contribute meaningfully to close activities and take ownership of clearly defined global reconciliation work.
• Organize and track open items, requests, and timelines across international statutory audits, coordinating with Tax and cross-functional partners. By your 90th day, use Claude thoughtfully to improve reconciliation analysis, audit support, documentation, or quality checks.

• Working knowledge of core corporate accounting processes, including close activities, AP, and cash reconciliations; this is central to the role’s day-to-day work
• Experience in public accounting or audit, or in corporate accounting; candidates early in their careers, including new graduates with relevant experience, are welcome
• Ownership, sound judgment, and a continuous-improvement mindset: you look for ways to make the work more accurate, scalable, and easier for others to build on
• Ability to organize and track work across multiple international statutory audits with accuracy, clear follow-through, and attention to deadlines
• Demonstrated ability to build cross-functional partnerships and communicate clearly with stakeholders at all levels, including explaining fluctuations and their business drivers
• Curiosity to learn country-specific requirements as Notion expands
• Familiarity with NetSuite, Oracle, or a similar ERP is a plus; experience with BlackLine, tax, or close management is also helpful
• Foundational knowledge of U.S. GAAP and accrual accounting, with some familiarity with IFRS
• If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every bullet, we still encourage you to apply
