At Northwest Wine Accounting, we exist for two reasons:

1. To help wineries thrive by delivering top-notch accounting
2. To build a workplace that is genuinely rewarding for our team

WHAT WE DO

We are a 100% remote accounting firm based in Washington state. Our core offering is to serve as the outsourced accounting department for small and midsized wineries.

Our services include:

- Bookkeeping & payroll
- Controllership & inventory costing
- Regulatory compliance
- Data analytics
- Fractional CFO support & advisory

We’re a modern, people-first accounting firm that uses tools like QBO, Gusto, Dext, and BILL to streamline our work, so that we can make the accounting experience smoother and more transparent for both clients and team members.

WHO WE SERVE

Our clients are often family-owned wineries at a crossroads—either growing quickly or tired of piecing things together on their own. They’re looking for an expert partner who understands the complexity of winery accounting and can help them get it right.

We love helping our clients make better decisions, build sustainable businesses, and spend more time on the craft (and less time in the books).

WHAT IT'S LIKE TO WORK HERE

We’re a small, collaborative, and fully remote team that values service, flexibility, and real human connection.

We take pride in being dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely helpful to our clients and each other. Whether it’s replying to a client question quickly or jumping in to support a teammate, we believe that showing up with care and competence is part of what makes us great at what we do.

We currently have a team of 5 accountants, 1 compliance specialist, and 2 advisors spread across the country.
