  • Support process improvements, system enhancements, and future ERP initiatives
  • Partner with leadership to improve visibility into financial and operational performance
  • Drive efficiencies across accounting workflows and business processes

QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • Experience leading accounting operations in a high-volume transactional environment
  • Strong understanding of month-end close, financial reporting, and internal controls
  • Prior leadership experience managing accounting staff
  • ERP experience required; NetSuite experience is a plus
  • CPA preferred
