Technical Accounting Manager

Evergreen is a San Francisco-based holding company that acquires and operates B2B services companies across North America. Since its founding in late 2017, Evergreen has completed 150+ acquisitions across Managed IT Services, Cybersecurity, ERP Software Partners and Government Services. We are driven by a people-first mission to be the best home for businesses and their leaders, by marrying capital allocation with inspired operations.

The Evergreen holding company team is comprised of 50+ professionals based in San Francisco who are focused on capital allocation, M&A, executive level hiring, strategic board leadership, and finance and accounting. Evergreen is a uniquely long-term oriented holding company that seeks to hold and grow businesses indefinitely rather than follow the 5-7 year holding period of a typical private equity fund. This allows us to take a truly long-term view on performance and people. Evergreen is backed by Alpine Investors, a leading private equity firm focused on the services and software industries with $18B+ in AUM. 

Job Description:

As we continue to grow through acquisition, we're looking for a Technical Accounting Manager to own the acquisition accounting and integration onboarding work that comes with every deal — from opening balance sheet review, cash-to-GAAP transition, and through complex standalone technical positions prepared on behalf of the consolidated group.

This role sits at the intersection of deep technical GAAP expertise and program leadership. You'll be the person who makes sure every acquisition is accounted for correctly on day one, and who runs the onboarding program that integrates newly acquired companies into our accounting and reporting function. You'll partner closely with the Assistant Controller, Grove accounting teams, advisory and valuation partners, and external auditors, as the go-to technical resource for the broader F&A organization.

Key Responsibilities

M&A Onboarding & ASC 805 Purchase Accounting

• Lead the review of ASC 805 opening balance sheets and purchase price allocations for all acquisitions
• Coordinate with third-party valuation providers and review their fair value analyses for reasonableness and consistency with GAAP
• Own and continuously improve the onboarding program for newly acquired operating companies, including the playbook, timeline, and standard deliverables used across every transaction
• Serve as the technical accounting lead throughout the acquisition lifecycle — from diligence support through close and post-close reporting
• Build repeatable frameworks and templates that scale as deal volume increases
