Reporting to their Controller, you will support month-end closing for their two divisions including accounts payable, journal entries, cash management, and financial reporting. Their accounting team (3) is nimble and always looking for opportunities to support one another. That is why they are searching for candidates who would enjoy an entrepreneurial environment where you will be exposed to more areas of the business and are passionate about doing what it takes to get the job done. Given the variety in your scope of work, they’re looking for someone who would appreciate the opportunity to expand their skillset and become a proactive contributor to a company in growth mode. Whether you have worked in a public accounting firm and you are seeking a better work/life balance, or you have worked under more stagnant leaders who do not prioritize process improvements, this is a great opportunity for someone who values a fresher accounting environment that champions efficiency and growth.
