Staff Accountant

$70k - $85k

Creative Financial Staffing

Staff Accountant


Ready to take ownership of a key accounting function and work alongside executive leadership? This is a high-impact opportunity with a growing, family-owned company where your expertise will be valued and your ideas can drive real change.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out for the Staff Accountant:
• Opportunity created by an internal promotion, proving there is room for advancement
• Partner directly with the Controller and CFO on critical accounting initiatives
• Play a leadership role by mentoring junior accountants
• Have a seat at the table when it comes to improving processes and efficiencies
• Join a stable, growing organization that continues to invest in its people and technology


Target Compensation: $70,000-$85,000
Key Responsibilities for the Staff Accountant:
• Manage month-end and year-end close activities
• Prepare financial statements and accounting reports
• Calculate commissions and maintain supporting schedules
• Coordinate audit requests and provide supporting documentation
• Recommend and implement process improvements across accounting operations
Qualifications for the Staff Accountant:
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting; CPA or Master's preferred (or in progress)
• 3+ years of accounting experience
• Experience in at least 2 of the following:

  • Sales tax or complex tax
  • Audit support
  • Commission calculations
  • Financial statement preparation
  • Month-end/year-end close • Ability to work independently and provide guidance to junior staff
