  • Identify opportunities to improve accounting processes and internal controls
  • Work cross functionally with internal teams to resolve accounting issues and provide financial information

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
  • 4+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • Strong understanding of GAAP and full-cycle accounting
  • Experience with month end close and financial statement preparation
  • Strong Excel skills

  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with a broader team
