@daisydemtschenko
Accounting & operations professional specializing in full-cycle accounting, payroll, and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Accounting & Operations professional with 6+ years of experience managing full-cycle accounting, payroll administration, banking operations, government contract billing, and business compliance across multi-entity organizations. I’m known for accuracy, organization, problem-solving, and strong attention to detail in fast-paced environments.
In my current role as an Accounting &Operations Coordinator, I independently oversee accounting and operational functions end to end—handling accounts payable, accounts receivable, client billing, collections, vendor payments, and account maintenance. I manage month-end close, journal entries, and account reconciliations, and I support financial reporting to executive leadership.
I also own treasury and banking operations, including ACH transactions, wire transfers, check issuance and deposits, bank account setup, cash management, and reconciliation of multiple operating accounts. For payroll, I administer Heartland payroll through onboarding, payroll submissions, timesheet review, labor allocations, payroll reporting, and payroll tax documentation.
On top of core accounting, I run government contract accounting processes—labor tracking, timesheet validation, contract billing, invoice preparation, and submission through government procurement and payments systems. I strengthen business compliance by managing vendor onboarding (W-9s and COIs), sales tax reporting, and ongoing compliance tasks like licenses, state registrations, annual reports, insurance renewals, certifications, and regulatory filings—while staying responsive as a primary point of contact for accounting, payroll, banking, vendor management, and compliance.
