Automotive Office Manager — Automotive Dealership
Aurora, CO | Full-Time, On-Site |
The Opportunity
We're a high-volume dealership in the Aurora market looking for an Accounting Office Manager who can run a clean, current office. This is not a seat where you inherit a mess and firefight — it's a seat where you own the accounting function day to day, keep the schedules tight, and give the Controller and Dealer Principal numbers they can trust.
If you know your way around a dealership DMS, can close a month without drama, and have the presence to lead a small office team, we want to talk.

Month-end close and preparation of the factory financial statement
Reconciliation of all balance sheet schedules — kept current, not caught up at close
Floorplan reconciliation and payoff tracking
Warranty and contract receivables — aging monitored and cleared, not parked
Bank reconciliations, daily cash management, and deposit oversight
Payroll processing and commission calculations for sales and fixed ops
