The position offers the potential for growth and impact within a collaborative environment, with an emphasis on process improvement and automation.

Responsibilities

Execute month-end close across multiple entities: journal entries, accruals, prepaid and fixed-asset schedules, and balance-sheet reconciliations, supporting consolidated reporting.
Reconcile high-volume e-commerce and marketplace activity (direct-to-consumer, Amazon, Walmart) — payouts, settlement reports, marketplace fees, and chargebacks/deductions — to the general ledger.
Process accounts payable and accounts receivable; manage vendor records, expense coding, and customer/marketplace remittances.
Support inventory and cost accounting for imported goods, including landed cost, freight, and duties; reconcile the inventory subledger to the general ledger.
Reconcile third-party logistics (3PL) and freight invoices and assist with related cost analysis.
Prepare bank and credit-card reconciliations and support intercompany cost allocations between entities.
Assist with multi-state sales and use tax compliance and filings, coordinating with the company’s tax automation tools.
Prepare workpapers and schedules supporting annual tax filings, external reviews, and lender/investor reporting.
Document and improve accounting processes — identify manual, repetitive work and partner with the CFO to automate it within the ERP and reporting stack.

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance.
2–4 years of progressive accounting experience, including ownership of month-end close tasks.
Strong working knowledge of U.S. GAAP and core accounting cycles (AP, AR, GL, reconciliations).
Advanced Excel — comfortable with pivot tables, lookups/XLOOKUP, and reconciling large data sets.
High attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the ability to manage multiple entities and deadlines with minimal supervision.
