Director Of Accounting

The Director of Accounting will lead an accounting management team, directly supervise two Controllers that oversee a staff of 20 accountants, and partner closely with the SVP of Financial Operations on strategic initiatives, operational improvements, and departmental direction. This is far more than a traditional "close the books" accounting role. The company is looking for someone who can:

Lead and develop high-performing accounting teams
Drive accountability, operational efficiency, and process improvement
Standardize workflows and improve reporting through data and analytics
Navigate complex financial conversations with boards and leadership teams
Serve as a technical accounting resource across the organization
Help scale systems, controls, reporting, and accounting operations
Partner cross-functionally with operations, IT, training, and business development teams

Additional areas of responsibility include:

Oversight of monthly financial reporting and reviews
Managing complex multi-entity accounting environments
Supporting audits, internal controls, and SSAE-18 / SOC compliance
Leading accounting integrations for acquisitions
Developing KPIs, dashboards, and departmental metrics
Driving technology enhancements and accounting system improvements
Coaching and mentoring Controllers and accounting staff

Ideal background:

Bachelor's degree in Accounting
5+ years of accounting leadership experience
Strong technical accounting and financial reporting expertise
Advanced Excel skills including Power Query, macros, pivot tables, and large data analysis
Experience leading teams
CPA preferred

The ideal candidate is a forward-thinking accounting leader who thrives in high-volume environments, enjoys solving operational challenges, and knows how to elevate both people and processes. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to step into a strategic leadership role with strong visibility and influence across the organization.
