Director of Accounting (Lafayette)

Professional Recruiting Services

We're working on a confidential Director of Accounting search for a multi-entity organization in the Lafayette area with significant projected growth. Given your experience, we thought this opportunity was worth sharing in case you're open to a move or know someone who might be a strong fit.

The role will focus on maintaining financial integrity, strengthening internal controls, improving processes and efficiencies, and developing the accounting function to support continued growth.

The ideal candidate will bring substantial accounting leadership experience, strong technical knowledge of GAAP financial reporting, and a track record of developing teams and improving accounting operations.
