Are you an accounting professional looking to take the next step in your career with a rapidly growing, industry-leading organization?

We are partnering with a leading, private equity-backed company to identify a Senior Accountant to join its expanding accounting team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in public accounting or corporate accounting who enjoys taking ownership of accounting processes, improving efficiencies, and working closely with leadership.

The ideal candidate will bring a strong technical accounting foundation, analytical mindset, and interest in joining a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Take ownership of assigned general ledger accounts, including accruals, prepaid expenses, and vendor rebates.
  • Prepare account reconciliations, journal entries, and supporting schedules as part of the monthly close process.
  • Analyze financial results, investigate variances, and prepare reporting for senior management.
  • Partner with accounting leadership and cross-functional teams on budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis.
  • Support internal and external audits, ensuring compliance with accounting policies and internal controls.
  • Identify opportunities to streamline accounting processes, enhance reporting, and improve operational efficiency.
  • Leverage automation, AI, and emerging technologies to modernize accounting workflows.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance.
  • Experience in public accounting, corporate accounting, or a combination of both.
  • Strong understanding of GAAP, general ledger accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and strong analytical capabilities.
  • Experience with ERP systems and an interest in technology-driven process improvements.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across departments.
  • A proactive, detail-oriented professional who thrives in a growing organization.
