• Oversee the general ledger by validating account activity, correcting discrepancies, and maintaining reliable financial records.

• Perform and supervise account reconciliations to support balance sheet accuracy and resolve outstanding variances promptly.

• Partner with internal stakeholders and external auditors by providing schedules, explanations, and supporting documentation during financial statement audits.

• Monitor adherence to organizational and corporate accounting standards, reinforcing consistent application of internal policies.

• Identify inefficiencies in the close process and implement improvements that shorten reporting cycles and enhance accuracy.

• Demonstrated experience managing month-end close and related financial reporting activities.
• Strong working knowledge of general ledger accounting and account reconciliation practices.
• Ability to prepare and evaluate complex journal entries with a high level of accuracy.
• Experience supporting or coordinating financial statement audit requirements.
• Solid understanding of accrual-based accounting and period-end adjustment processes.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to investigate discrepancies and recommend corrective action.
• Effective communication skills and the ability to collaborate across accounting and business teams.
