How to Apply for Finance Analyst
at Intelehealth
🏢 About Intelehealth
Intelehealth is a nonprofit that builds open-source telemedicine technology to help healthcare workers deliver quality primary care in areas without doctors. Working here means your finance work directly supports expanding healthcare access in underserved regions, and you’d be part of a mission-driven, remote-first team. The organization’s focus on open-source and nonprofit healthcare makes it unique for finance professionals who want their skills to create social impact.
About This Role
As a Finance Analyst at Intelehealth, you’ll own the monthly accounting close, including journal entries, balance sheet reconciliations, and variance analysis, while also handling GST and TDS filings and donor fund utilization reports. You’ll support audits and ensure compliance for a nonprofit healthcare organization, making your work critical to maintaining donor trust and enabling uninterrupted telemedicine programs. This remote full-time role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on, mission-driven finance environment.
💡 A Day in the Life
You might start by reviewing transactions and preparing journal entries for the monthly close, then reconcile balance sheet accounts and investigate variances. Later, you could work on GST/TDS calculations for upcoming filings or compile fund utilization reports for a donor, while coordinating with program managers to gather expense details. You’d also respond to audit queries and ensure all documentation is organized for remote collaboration.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who Intelehealth Is Looking For
- 3–5 years of finance/accounting experience with hands-on GST and TDS return filing, reconciliations, and monthly close processes.
- Proficiency in accounting software such as Tally, Zoho Books, or QuickBooks, and advanced MS Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, etc.).
- B.Com, M.Com, or MBA in Finance; prior experience in a nonprofit or healthcare organization is a strong plus.
- Detail-oriented and able to manage donor reporting, fund utilization, and audit support with accuracy and timeliness in a remote setup.
📝 Tips for Applying to Intelehealth
Highlight specific examples of GST and TDS filings you’ve prepared, including the number of returns filed and any compliance improvements you made.
Quantify your experience with monthly close and reconciliations—e.g., 'closed books within 5 business days' or 'reconciled 50+ balance sheet accounts monthly'.
Mention any nonprofit or healthcare finance exposure, even if it was volunteer or pro bono, to show alignment with Intelehealth’s mission.
In your resume, list the accounting software you’ve used (Tally, Zoho Books, QuickBooks) and describe how you used them for donor reporting or fund tracking.
Address the remote nature of the role by emphasizing your ability to work independently, meet deadlines, and collaborate via digital tools.
✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter
Emphasize your hands-on experience with GST/TDS filings and monthly close, and connect it to the need for accurate donor reporting in a nonprofit. Show that you understand the importance of fund utilization reports and audit support in maintaining donor confidence. Express a genuine interest in Intelehealth’s mission to expand healthcare access, and explain how your finance skills can help the organization run efficiently. Mention your proficiency with accounting software and Excel, and give an example of how you’ve used them to improve a process or resolve a reconciliation issue.
