Senior Accounting Manager

Job Description

Job Description

We're partnering with a growing, global multi-entity consumer business to find a Senior Accounting Manager who is equal parts technical expert and proactive leader. This isn't a role for someone who waits to be told what to look for — it's for someone who can walk up to a balance sheet, spot the issues, and drive resolution!

What you'll take ownership of:

• Lead and coordinate month-end close across accounting, AP, payroll, treasury, and business planning teams
• Prepare and consolidate financial statements under US GAAP (plus exposure to ITA GAAP & IFRS), including intercompany eliminations across 20+ legal entities
• Own balance sheet reconciliations across revenue, inventory, AR, intercompany transactions, fixed assets, and accruals — and understand how each ripples through the GL
• Supervise a Sr. Staff Accountant (revenue / royalty accounting) and an external AR & collections team
• Partner strategically with revenue accounting — shaping GL flow between the P&L and balance sheet, not just executing entries
• Build and maintain SOPs, chart of accounts, and backup schedules for key P&L and BS line items
• Identify process improvements and leverage technology where appropriate
• Provide input on team structure, future hiring needs, and how the function should be built out

Requirements

• 6+ years in general ledger / month-end close, with hands-on balance sheet fluency across multiple categories
• Proactive, analytical thinker — identifies issues independently, coordinates with management, and runs point on resolution
• Strong GAAP knowledge; exposure to multi-entity consolidations and intercompany eliminations
• People leadership experience and the confidence to advise upward on team structure and resourcing
• Advanced Excel (index-match, sum-ifs, pivot tables); ERP experience (Microsoft Dynamics or similar)

Preferred Qualifications

• CPA designation
• Background in retail, consumer product goods (CPG), manufacturing and wholesale, or multi-unit consumer businesses - particularly focused on: fixed assets, heavy accruals, and inventory accounting
• Comfortable operating as a business partner, not just a technical accountant!

High-level Scope to position:

• Revenue
• Inventory
• Intercompany & Consolidations
• AR & Collections
• GAAP Reporting
• Month-End Close
• Financial Statements
