What you’ll be doing:

  • Own components of month-end close
  • Prepare and post journal entries
  • Perform account reconciliations and investigate variances
  • Deliver flux analysis with clear explanations
  • Support specialized areas: Equity accounting, Stock-based compensation (SBC), Sales commissions, Payroll reconciliations
  • Ensure alignment with ASC 340

What stands out:

  • Having NetSuite experience
  • Prior experience in tech is strongly preferred
  • Strong attention to detail with the ability to dig into reconciliations
  • Experience supporting complex areas like SBC, equity, and commissions
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and rolling up sleeves

Why this role: Immediate impact. High visibility during close. Opportunity to extend beyond initial scope.

If you’ve been in the details of GL and thrive in fast-paced environments, this will be a strong match.
