  • Maintain general ledger accuracy and ensure financial transactions are recorded appropriately

  • Prepare journal entries, accruals, account reconciliations, and supporting schedules

  • Support month-end and year-end close processes

  • Research account discrepancies, analyze financial activity, and resolve balancing issues

  • Assist with financial reporting, annual audits, and regulatory reporting requirements

  • Provide accounting support, guidance, and training to internal stakeholders

  • Participate in ERP implementation, testing, system improvements, and accounting process enhancements

  • Help strengthen internal controls and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and accuracy

  • Serve as a knowledgeable accounting resource for departments throughout the organization

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of accounting, finance, or audit experience

  • Strong experience with general ledger accounting, reconciliations, journal entries, and financial analysis

  • Understanding of GAAP and financial reporting

  • Comfortable researching discrepancies and working through complex accounting issues

  • Strong Excel and financial systems skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience

  • Governmental, nonprofit, public-sector, or similarly complex accounting experience is helpful but not required

  • ERP implementation or system conversion experience is a plus

The Ideal Senior Accountant

The ideal Senior Accountant is someone who is technically strong but also curious and solutions-oriented. You’ll be successful here if you’re comfortable digging into the details, asking questions, collaborating with different stakeholders, and helping improve the way accounting processes are handled.

For a Senior Accountant looking for stability, variety, visibility, and exposure to a large-scale ERP transformation, this is an opportunity to make an impact while continuing to grow your accounting experience.
