Help Build the Financial Operations Behind the Mission

At FLF, exceptional client outcomes begin with exceptional financial operations.

As our organization continues to grow, we rely on strong accounting systems, operational controls, and financial oversight to ensure accuracy, optimize cash flow, and support sustainable business growth.

We are seeking an experienced Managing Accountant to lead critical financial operations, strengthen internal controls, optimize accounts receivable processes, and develop scalable accounting systems that empower leadership with greater financial visibility and operational efficiency.

If you're passionate about accounting, financial operations, process improvement, and building systems that drive organizational success, we'd love to hear from you.

Why This Role Matters

As our Managing Accountant, you will serve as a trusted financial operations leader responsible for overseeing accounting workflows, strengthening internal controls, and supporting the firm's revenue realization strategy.

This is far more than a traditional Accounts Receivable role. Because contingency-fee settlements involve evolving timelines, changing case valuations, and complex financial transactions, you'll combine advanced accounting expertise, operational oversight, forecasting, and strategic communication to help ensure financial accuracy and organizational performance.

Your work will directly influence financial integrity, cash flow forecasting, operational efficiency, and executive decision-making while helping build the accounting infrastructure that supports the firm's continued growth.

Compensation & Benefits

• USD salary compensation paid twice a month
• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• Paid Time Off
• Career growth within a rapidly expanding organization
• Ongoing professional development and technical training
• Exposure to executive leadership and strategic financial initiatives
• Collaborative and results-driven work environment
• Modern offices located in Guadalajara's premier financial district and Tijuana

What You'll Do

Financial Operations & Accounting Systems

• Design, implement, and continuously improve accounting workflows that support a contingency-fee business model.
• Develop advanced Excel-based aging, reconciliation, forecasting, and financial tracking systems integrated with QuickBooks Online.
• Optimize operational accounting processes to improve efficiency, scalability, and financial accuracy.
• Ensure accounting procedures support organizational growth while maintaining strong financial controls.

Internal Controls & Financial Oversight

• Serve as the firm's internal financial control leader by auditing accounting transactions and operational financial activity.
• Monitor financial data integrity and ensure compliance with US GAAP principles and internal policies.
• Perform detailed reconciliations and identify discrepancies requiring corrective action.
• Recommend process improvements that strengthen financial governance and operational accountability.

Forecasting & Revenue Optimization

• Develop forecasting models that improve cash flow visibility and revenue planning.
• Analyze aging reports, settlement pipelines, and historical financial trends to support executive decision-making.
• Build automated reporting tools that identify operational bottlenecks and financial risks.
• Present financial insights and recommendations that improve business performance and resource planning.

Medical Balance Negotiation & Revenue Recovery

• Manage high-priority or escalated medical balance negotiations with providers and lien holders.
• Negotiate financial settlements that support timely case resolution and maximize revenue recovery.
• Collaborate with legal teams to ensure financial obligations are resolved efficiently.
• Maintain accurate financial documentation and reporting throughout the negotiation process.

Cross-Functional Financial Partnership

• Partner with Legal, Operations, Negotiations, and Executive Leadership to improve financial workflows.
• Drive accountability across departments by ensuring adherence to financial processes and timelines.
• Support strategic initiatives that improve operational efficiency and financial performance.
• Serve as a trusted advisor on accounting operations, revenue optimization, and financial process improvement.

What We're Looking For

• Strong knowledge of US GAAP, accounting principles, internal controls, and financial auditing.
• Experience designing accounting workflows and implementing financial process improvements.
• Exceptional analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
