With our commitment to competitive pay and a strong retirement package, you can do good for your community and do well for yourself.

Join a caring workplace that proudly celebrates uniqueness, authenticity, and a shared commitment to improving the lives of our residents.

The Department of Finance provides centralized structure and support for the City of Norfolk, to include financial reporting; debt; payroll; procurement; risk management; fiscal systems support; accounts payable; collections; business process improvement; and retirement.

Finance's Financial Reporting Division is responsible for facilitating the City's annual external audit, preparing the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), and maintaining the integrity of the City's general ledger accounting system.

Through the provision of assistance and guidance, the Department of Finance is positioned to interact with just about every City department and is a great place to build a career.

We work hard, but we also have fun and take care of our greatest resource, our people.

The position will work as part of a collaborative team, support the Senior Accounting Manager and the City Controller, and communicate regularly and effectively to promote stable financial operations.

Overtime may be required during high volume periods and in conjunction with federal and state deadlines.

Performs fund accounting by monitoring to ensure the integrity and accuracy of automated financial accounting system and related reports.

Recommends development or modification of financial accounting and reporting controls and/or procedures for implementation.

Knowledge is normally acquired through four years of college resulting in a Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or equivalent.

Required:

Three years of experience in accounting within a local government, nonprofit organization or related industry; or an equivalent combination of education and accounting or finance experience.

Preferred:

Three to five years of experience in accounting, with at least one year within local government, nonprofit organization, or related industry.
