Accounting Manager

About the Opportunity

We are partnering with a growing, multi-entity organization seeking an Accounting Manager to join its corporate finance and accounting team. This role offers a unique blend of hands-on accounting leadership, financial reporting, process improvement, and strategic exposure across the business.

The Accounting Manager will lead key aspects of the close reporting process while also helping drive operational efficiencies, support business initiatives, and mentor a developing accounting team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys balancing corporate accounting responsibilities with leadership and business partnership exposure.

The organization is experiencing continued growth and transformation, creating strong long-term career potential and visibility to executive leadership.

Key Takeaways

• High-visibility role with exposure to executive leadership
• Opportunity to lead and mentor a growing accounting team
• Blend of accounting, financial analysis, and process improvement
• Stable, growth-oriented organization with strong career progression potential
• Broad exposure across operations, reporting, and strategic initiatives

What You'll Do

• Lead monthly, quarterly, and year-end close activities to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting
• Review and approve journal entries, account reconciliations, variance analysis, and general ledger activity
• Prepare and analyze financial statements, management reporting packages, and supporting schedules
• Supervise, mentor, and develop accounting staff through coaching, training, and performance management
• Partner cross-functionally with operational and finance leaders to improve reporting accuracy and business performance
• Support external audit processes and coordinate requests with auditors
• Drive process improvement initiatives focused on efficiency, scalability, and strengthening internal controls
• Assist with technical accounting matters, policy implementation, and compliance with U.S. GAAP
• Support special projects including system implementations, integrations, acquisitions, and operational initiatives

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience with leadership or supervisory exposure
• Strong understanding of financial reporting, reconciliations, and month-end close processes
• Experience working within a multi-entity or complex business environment preferred
• Ability to analyze financial data and communicate insights effectively to leadership
• Strong systems proficiency, including advanced Excel skills and ERP experience
• CPA and/or MBA preferred
• Proven ability to improve processes, prioritize competing deadlines, and work collaboratively across teams

Why This Role Stands Out

This opportunity offers more than a traditional accounting management role. You'll gain broad exposure across the organization while working alongside approachable leadership that values mentorship, collaboration, and professional growth. The company is investing in its finance and accounting infrastructure, making this an ideal environment for someone who wants to make an impact while continuing to grow their career.
