Senior Accountant (Contract) | Indianapolis, IN | On-Site

We are currently seeking a Senior Accountant for a project-based contract role supporting a dynamic and evolving accounting team in Indianapolis. This is a fully on-site opportunity offering flexible hours and the chance to step into a critical role during a high-impact transition period.

This position is ideal for a technically strong accounting professional who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys rolling up their sleeves, and can quickly integrate into established processes. You'll play a key role in ensuring the continuity of financial operations during a temporary leave while contributing to broader efficiency initiatives.

Key Responsibilities
  • Prepare and post month-end journal entries
  • Complete monthly account reconciliations
  • Maintain accurate and timely financial records
  • Review prior-period entries and validate supporting documentation
  • Support and drive the monthly close process to meet deadlines
  • Provide hands-on accounting support during a temporary project period
  • Partner with internal team members to ensure smooth transition and continuity
Qualifications
  • 3+ years of accounting experience
  • Strong experience with month-end close processes
  • Proficiency in journal entries and account reconciliations
  • Experience with cash reconciliations
  • Highly detail-oriented with strong organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and manage priorities effectively
  • Proven ability to learn systems and processes quickly
Preferred Profile
  • Adaptable and easy-going personality
  • Comfortable working in a lean, evolving environment
  • Team-oriented mindset with a willingness to jump in where needed
  • Ability to collaborate within a streamlined accounting team
Position Details
  • Job Title: Senior Accountant (Contract / Project-Based)
  • Location: Indianapolis, IN (Fully On-Site)
  • Duration: Approximately 3 months
  • Start Date: Targeting late June
  • Schedule: Flexible hours within a standard business week
  • Compensation: $ 43.27/hour

About the Opportunity

This role was created to support the accounting team during a planned leave while maintaining efficiency during a busy period. The organization is undergoing strategic initiatives to streamline operations, offering a unique opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way while gaining exposure to process improvements and cross-functional collaboration.

Why This Role Stands Out
  • Immediate impact in a high-visibility accounting function
  • Opportunity to step into a structured process with strong team collaboration
  • Exposure to operational improvements and evolving accounting workflows
  • Flexible schedule within a professional, team-oriented environment
Interested?

If this sounds like a strong fit, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today or reach out directly for a confidential conversation to learn more about this opportunity.

Pay Details: $40.00 to $50.00 per hour
