Rajesh Adhikari
@rajeshadhikari
Chartered Accountant specializing in US GAAP/NFRS reporting, audit, and multi-entity accounting with 5+ years’ experience.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Chartered Accountant with 5+ years of experience in financial reporting, auditing, and multi-entity accounting, focused on accurate, audit-ready books that support real business decisions. In my current Senior Accountant (Remote) role, I manage end-to-end accounting and finance operations for 5+ California-based companies across transportation and hospitality, including full-cycle accounting in QuickBooks Online, journal entries, reconciliations, payroll, and month-end close.
I’m particularly strong in compliance and risk control—preparing monthly P&L reporting, monitoring bank and credit card activity for unusual transactions, and coordinating renewals, audits, tax payments, and compliance across teams and advisors. I’ve also supported year-end tax work by issuing 250+ 1099s and managing payroll platforms (ADP Run, ADP Workmarket, Gusto) alongside payment tools like Square and Melio. Previously, I oversaw accounting for 10 group companies, standardized chart of accounts, coordinated statutory audits, and improved working-capital visibility; earlier audit roles included NFRS financial statement preparation and tax/VAT compliance advisory with PKF TR Upadhya & Company, and I now also teach core accounting to BIT and BCA students.
