Hotel Accountant & Payroll Coordinator

Responsibilities

• Manage the accounting and payroll function for a Guadalajara business hotel (100–300 employees): execute the biweekly payroll with full CFDI de nómina compliance, manage the IMSS Jalisco zone obligations, produce the monthly AP/AR accounting, and support the Finance Manager on the monthly close
• Execute biweekly payroll for the Guadalajara hotel workforce: process the payroll from department attendance input through net pay calculation, IMSS and ISR deductions, CFDI de nómina timbrado, and bank transfer execution — managing the Jalisco collective agreement payroll components if the property operates under a CTM or CROC union contract
• Manage IMSS Jalisco zone compliance: process SUA monthly employer quota payments, manage IMSS IDSE alta/baja for the hotel workforce, and maintain the Registro Patronal documentation in IMSS Jalisco-ready format
• Manage the hotel's MICE event billing: the Guadalajara MICE hotel generates complex event invoicing — group room block billing, F&B events billing, AV and meeting room rental, and the corporate master account billing that business hotel clients require in CFDI factura format with corporate RFC data
• Process the Jalisco state hotel tax (Impuesto sobre Hospedaje Jalisco): calculate the monthly hotel tax on lodging revenue, file the Jalisco state tax declaration, and account for the hotel tax in the revenue P&L correctly
• Coordinate the hotel's FIL and Expo Guadalajara event accounting: the November FIL and the Expo convention calendar create the hotel's highest revenue weeks of the year — the accountant manages the advance deposit accounting, the event billing, and the post-event reconciliation for these demand peaks

• IMSS Jalisco zone SUA and IDSE compliance
• SAT CFDI de nómina and revenue CFDI compliance

Work environment

Hotel accountant and payroll coordinator at a Guadalajara business hotel. Biweekly payroll execution, IMSS Jalisco compliance, MICE event billing, and Jalisco hotel tax management in Guadalajara's MICE-driven business hotel accounting environment.

About the role

The Guadalajara hotel accountant who processes the November FIL week — 7 consecutive nights at 100% occupancy, a 3-day literary event using all 4 meeting rooms, a publisher gala dinner for 200 in the ballroom, 12 corporate accounts billing to master accounts, and the Jalisco state hotel tax calculation on the highest week of revenue the hotel generates all year — who has cleared all group accounts, produced all CFDI facturas, and closed the FIL accounting by November 30 — has delivered the accounting close for the hotel's most commercially complex week of the year. The November FIL is the reason the hotel invested in the meeting room renovation and the ballroom upgrade. The accountant who closes it cleanly every year is the financial proof that the investment was justified.
