Grants Accountant

Robert Half • Rock Island, IL • 14h ago

Description

Robert Half is partnering with a mission-driven nonprofit organization to identify a Grants Accountant who wants their work to directly support meaningful community programs.

This is an excellent opportunity for an accountant who enjoys hands-on work, takes ownership of their responsibilities, and is interested in building experience in grant and nonprofit accounting within a growing, high-impact organization.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll manage a portfolio of grants and play a key role in maintaining accurate financial reporting and supporting program success.

Core responsibilities include:

Preparing and posting journal entries related to grant activity

Performing account reconciliations and ensuring timely general ledger accuracy

Managing financial tracking and reporting for assigned grant programs

Supporting monthly financial reporting, including fund-level income statements

Assisting with budget vs. actual analysis and partnering with program leaders

Maintaining grant documentation and supporting audit and compliance efforts

Collaborating across accounting and operational teams

This role offers strong ownership with support from a collaborative, experienced team.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Work that directly supports community-based programs and services

Exposure to complex, high-volume grant accounting (great for skill-building)

Generous PTO offering (4+ weeks in year one)

Stable organization experiencing continued growth

Opportunity to learn and expand into grant accounting, even if you haven't done it before

Who This Role Is Great For

This position is a strong fit for someone who:

Takes pride in getting the details right

Enjoys owning their work and following through

Values purpose-driven work over a purely corporate environment

Is eager to grow their accounting skill set, particularly in grants

If you're looking for an opportunity where your accounting skills have a tangible impact - and where you can continue to grow in a supportive environment - we encourage you to apply or call our team today at (563) 359-3995!

Requirements

What You Bring

Required:

Bachelor's degree in Accounting (or related field with strong accounting coursework)

Solid understanding of core accounting fundamentals (debits/credits, journal entries, reconciliations)

Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities

Dependability and consistency in a deadline-driven environment

Preferred:

Experience in nonprofit and/or grant accounting

Exposure to fund accounting or multi-entity environments

Experience with accounting systems
