Marichelle Sunseri
MARGATE - Jewish Family Service of Atlantic and Cape May Counties has appointed Marichelle Sunseri to the position of director of Grants and Accounting. Sunseri will work collaboratively with the grants team to develop strategies, provide financial acumen for applications and oversee progress to ensure timeliness of reports. In addition, she will monitor the status of each submission and make certain budgets are reflective of grants awarded to the agency.
I am excited to continue my accounting career at Jewish Family Service. I wanted to stay in nonprofit accounting after relocating from Pennsylvania and was thrilled to be offered the position at JFS. As part of the finance team, I hope to continue to support the agency in its mission and core values, Sunseri said.
Most recently, Sunseri held the position of accounting manager at Outreach Center for Community Resources in Scranton, Pa., where she oversaw accounts payable and receivable, payroll, auditing, grants and fundraising reconciliations. With nearly 30 years of financial and business expertise in the public and private sector, she maintains proficiency in bookkeeping, grants, and payroll tax accounting.
We are pleased to welcome Marichelle to the JFS staff. Her career expertise, inclusive of financial and nonprofit work, makes her a wonderful addition to the hardworking and dedicated team, JFS CEO Andrea Steinberg said.
Sunseri is a candidate for a masters in taxation from the University of Akron and a graduate of Wittenberg University where she earned a bachelor of arts degree in business administration. She also maintains a nonprofit accreditation from the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Sunseri replaces Mara Bienstock, who is retiring from JFS. A nearly 10-year staff member, Beinstock previously held the positions of director of grants and accounting and chief financial officer.
