MSS MJH Shared Services

About MJH Life Sciences MJH Life Sciences is a leading private medical media company in North America, providing trusted insights across oncology, pharmacy, managed care, and other therapeutic areas. Opportunity We are hiring a Junior Accountant who will grow into future finance leadership roles. This position involves real ownership and a clear path to senior accounting, FP&A, and related roles. What You’ll Do Support the month‑end and year‑end close process, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and accruals. Prepare bank reconciliations and investigate variances. Help maintain the general ledger and ensure compliance with GAAP. Contribute to the preparation of internal financial reports and support external audit requests. Identify process inefficiencies and propose improvements; provide insights beyond data entry. Partner cross‑functionally with business unit leaders to understand the “why” behind the numbers. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field conferred within the last 12 months. Strong academic record; CPA‑eligible or actively pursuing CPA licensure. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, and quick learning of advanced functions). Strong analytical mindset and curiosity about how businesses operate. Excellent written and verbal communication—explaining variances to non‑finance managers. High attention to detail and personal accountability for your work. Working knowledge of AI and desire to build further. What Sets the Right Candidate Apart You ask “why” before you ask “what.” You finish tasks, feel comfortable speaking up as the junior person, treat feedback as fuel, and prefer usefulness over impression. Compensation Competitive starting salary of $65,000 – $75,000 annually, depending on qualifications, with performance‑bonus eligibility and commission incentives. Benefits Hybrid work schedule Health, dental, vision coverage via Cigna and VSP Pharmacy benefits via OptumRx FSA, HSA, Dependent Care FSA, Limited Purpose FSA options 401(k) with company match (Roth 401(k) options) Pet discount program with PetAssure Identity theft protection via Norton LifeLock EAP through NYLGBS Fertility benefits via Progyny Commuter benefits Short‑Term and Long‑Term Disability (company‑paid) Voluntary Term Life & AD&D Insurance, plus Universal Life Insurance options Supplemental Aflac coverage: Accident, Critical Illness, Hospital Indemnity Discounts and rewards via BenefitHub Annual bonus program or commission incentive based on role AI Capability Expectations Describe your philosophy and track record on AI adoption in marketing leadership. Vision for how AI should be embedded into a modern marketing organization. Specific ways AI has changed your leadership, planning or execution of marketing strategy. Details on building AI capability and fluency across a team. Examples of AI‑driven programs or frameworks that improved marketing performance at scale.
