Senior Accountant

Senior Accountant – Financial Reporting & Consolidations– Contract

We are seeking a hands-on Accounting & Finance professional to support a 3+ month project with potential for extension. This role is ideal for an experienced accountant who enjoys being in the trenches and doing the work, rather than simply reviewing completed work.

The company is currently operating in Microsoft Dynamics and preparing to migrate to NetSuite, so experience with ERP transitions or manual/Excel-heavy accounting environments is a plus.

What You'll Do

Month-End Close & Consolidations

• Assist with month-end close activities.
• Support financial consolidations across multiple entities.
• Help set up and maintain an Excel-based consolidation file.
• Work with U.S. and international teams across multiple time zones.

Reconciliations & Accounting

• Prepare account reconciliations and supporting documentation.
• Perform financial cross-checks and investigate discrepancies.
• Validate balances and financial outputs prior to review.
• Support day-to-day accounting activities as needed.

Audit & Compliance Support

• Respond to audit requests and gather supporting documentation.
• Prepare compliance and financial reporting packages.
• Assist with documentation and support ahead of key reporting deadlines.

Tax Support

• Respond to requests from tax professionals.
• Pull trial balances and financial data for individual legal entities.
• Gather financial information needed to support state and federal tax filings.
• You will not be responsible for preparing the actual tax returns.

Systems & Process Support

• Work within Excel-heavy accounting processes.
• Document current procedures and workflows.
• Help identify dependencies related to reports and legacy processes.
• Support the team through ongoing system and process changes.

What We're Looking For

• Strong accounting/finance background with hands-on experience.
• Experience with month-end close, account reconciliations, and consolidations.
• Experience supporting audits and/or tax requests.
• Comfortable working with financial data for multiple entities.
• Strong Excel skills and ability to work with manual processes.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with U.S. and overseas teams.
• Ability to work across multiple time zones.
• Manufacturing experience is a plus.
• ERP experience preferred; Microsoft Dynamics and/or NetSuite experience is a plus.

The Ideal Candidate

We're looking for someone who is a hands-on doer—someone who is comfortable rolling up their sleeves, preparing the work, researching issues, and figuring things out in a smaller-company environment.

You should be comfortable with:

• Working independently and taking ownership.
• Ambiguous or evolving processes.
• Learning operational processes quickly.
• Working directly with financial data rather than simply reviewing someone else's work.
• Communicating effectively with both U.S. and international teams.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• $40–$50/hour, depending on experience
• 3+ month contract with potential for extension
• Opportunity to work on consolidations, close, reconciliations, audit, and tax support
• Exposure to a Dynamics-to-NetSuite system transition
• Hands-on experience in a multi-entity environment
• Immediate need and opportunity to make an impact quickly
