About the job

Google accountants are a savvy bunch who handle the core accounting responsibilities at Google. You know your accounting principles and the full accounting process end to end. You'll advise on financial reports required by governmental regulations, and review, analyze, and interpret financial and budgetary reports. Every day is a new challenge, and you're continually looking for ways to help our team become more efficient and effective. A team player at heart, you collaborate with our global team, advocate best practices and pitch in where needed. You move fast while keeping your attention to detail, and you tap into your problem-solving skills to support business objectives.

You'll lead an accounting process from end-to-end. Other responsibilities include reconciling balance sheets and P&L accounts, and providing supplementary financial information for internal and external reports.

The REWS lease accounting team manages the global accounting for Google’s leased office space, including the sublease of both owned and leased properties. These workspaces and related services enable Googlers to grow as we work to deliver on Google’s mission. In this role, you will serve as the liaison between the REWS Accounting and Technical Accounting teams and REWS business partners by leveraging your strong accounting acumen, business partnering, financial reporting and innovative problem-solving skills.

The name Google came from "googol," a mathematical term for the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. And nobody at Google loves big numbers like the Finance team when providing in depth analysis on all manner of strategic decisions across Google products. From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.

The US base salary range for this full-time position is $125,000-$183,000 + bonus + equity + benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process.

  • Maintain effective internal controls for REWS Americas lease accounting, identifying opportunities and driving the implementation of process and system improvements, operational efficiencies and automated solutions.
  • Operational accounting tasks such as preparation and posting of ad-hoc journal entries, review of account reconciliations, and month-end close and quarter-end 10Q/10K reporting support for lease disclosures.
