Junior Grants Accountant - New York, United States - Center for Justice Innovation
Description
THE ORGANIZATIONThe Center for Justice Innovation (formerly the Center for Court Innovation) is a non-profit organization that works with communities and justice systems to advance equity, increase safety, and help individuals and communities thrive. The Center's goal is to identify and resolve as early as possible the challenges that bring people into the criminal and civil legal systems. It does this in a number of ways-by developing and running programs that reduce the need for incarceration and enhance economic opportunity, conducting original research to identify what works, and sharing what we learn from our programming and research with those seeking to transform the justice system around the world.
The Center is an 800-employee, $100 million nonprofit that accomplishes its vision through three pillars of work: creating and scaling operating programs to test new ideas and solve problems, performing original research to determine what works (and what doesn't), and providing expert assistance and policy guidance to justice reformers around the world.
Operating Programs
The Center's operating programs, including the award-winning Red Hook Community Justice Center and Midtown Community Justice Center, test new ideas, solve difficult problems, and attempt to achieve systemic change within the justice system. Our projects include community-based violence prevention programs, alternatives to incarceration, reentry initiatives, and court-based initiatives that reduce the use of unnecessary incarceration and promote positive individual and family change. Through this programming, we have produced tangible results like safer streets, reduced incarceration, and improved neighborhood perceptions of justice.
Research
The Center's research teams are staffed with social scientists, data analysts, and lawyers who are academically-trained or have lived experience and who conduct research in the U.S. and globally on diverse criminal-legal system and justice issues. Their work includes evaluating programs and policies; conducting exploratory, community-based studies; and providing research translation and strategic planning for system actors. The Center has published studies on topics including court and jail reform, intimate partner violence, restorative justice, gun violence, reentry, sixth amendment rights, and progressive prosecution. The research teams strive to make their work meaningful and actionable to the communities they work with, policymakers, and practitioners.
Policy & Expert Assistance
The Center provides hands-on, planning and implementation assistance to a wide range of jurisdictions in areas of reform such as problem-solving courts (e.g., community courts, treatment courts, domestic violence courts), tribal justice, reducing incarceration and the use of fines/fees and reducing crime and violence. Our current expert assistance takes many forms, including help with analyzing data, strategic planning and consultation, policy guidance, and hosting site visits to its operating programs in the New York City area.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The Finance Department is responsible for managing and processing financial information for The Center, which includes recommending, implementing and monitoring internal controls across multiple areas; including but not limited to: general ledger, budgeting, purchasing, cash receipts, bank reconciliation, compliance with Fiscal requirements for government reporting, financial statement preparation, and external reporting of financial information. The Finance Department consists of staff that work together to ensure contract compliance while providing financial flexibility and transparency to help programs deliver the biggest impact possible.
The Finance Department is seeking a Junior Grants Accountant. Reporting to the Accounts Receivable Manager the Junior Grants Accountant will assist the accounts receivable team in managing government grants and contracts. Working closely with the financial planning and analysis team, the Junior Grants Account is responsible for the complete, timely and accurate invoicing and collection of the Center's grants and contracts. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Position Location: Manhattan, NY
Compensation: The compensation range for this position is $ $35.71per hour based on a 35-hour work week and is commensurate with experience.
