This is a pivotal, senior-level role designed for a professional who excels in full-cycle accounting within complex, fast-paced corporate environments. You will move beyond basic data entry to take true ownership of the General Ledger, drive the month-end close process, and provide strategic financial insights.

What You Will Do

• Full-Cycle Ownership: Manage all aspects of the accounting cycle, including complex journal entries, accruals, and meticulous month-end close procedures.

• Financial Reporting: Prepare comprehensive financial statements, perform deep-dive variance analysis, and coordinate monthly/quarterly financial reporting packages.

• Compliance & Controls: Maintain rigorous internal controls and ensure all practices align with US GAAP standards.

• Strategic Planning: Partner with leadership to assist in annual budgeting, forecasting, and long-term strategic financial modeling.

• Leadership & Mentorship: Provide technical guidance to junior staff and cross-functional teams to streamline accounting procedures.

The Ideal Profile

• Environment: Proven track record in a mid-to-large sized corporation is essential.

• Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting or Finance is required (CPA or MBA preferred but not mandatory).

• Technical Skills: Mastery of US GAAP and the ability to navigate complex ERP systems and advanced financial reporting tools.

• Mindset: A critical thinker who thrives when given "abstract" project guidelines and can operate independently with high attention to detail.

Work Environment & Benefits

• Hybrid Schedule: This role offers a balanced hybrid model, combining the collaboration of an office environment with the flexibility of a remote home office.

• Growth Path: Designed for a Senior Accountant ready to transition into a Controller-level leadership role.
