About the Opportunity

Our client, a well-established organization in the music, publishing, and digital media space, is seeking a Senior Accounting Consultant to provide interim support during a key reporting and compliance period. This is a hands-on opportunity for an accounting professional who enjoys working independently, solving problems, and contributing directly to critical accounting and reporting functions.

The ideal candidate is comfortable operating in an Excel-heavy environment, can quickly learn existing processes, and thrives in situations where flexibility and adaptability are essential.

  • Perform financial reviews and reasonableness checks on results

Accounting & Reconciliations

  • Prepare account reconciliations and supporting schedules
  • Assist with documenting accounting procedures and workflows
  • Perform routine financial analysis and balance validation
  • Support the accuracy and completeness of financial reporting

Audit, Compliance & Tax Support

  • Respond to internal and external audit requests
  • Gather supporting documentation and prepare audit schedules
  • Assist with compliance reporting and filing requirements
  • Support tax-related requests, trial balance preparation, and related schedules

Process Improvement & Documentation

  • Document existing accounting processes and reporting workflows
  • Support knowledge transfer and process improvement initiatives
  • Assist with reporting dependencies tied to current systems and processes

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 3+ years of accounting, financial reporting, or corporate accounting experience
  • Experience supporting month-end close, account reconciliations, and financial reporting
  • Strong Excel skills, including advanced formulas, lookups, pivot tables, and complex spreadsheets
  • Experience supporting audits, compliance reporting, or tax-related requests
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities

Preferred Experience

  • Multi-entity accounting or consolidation experience
  • Experience in manufacturing, publishing, distribution, consumer products, or similar industries
  • Exposure to audit preparation and tax support activities
  • Experience working within manual, legacy, or transitioning system environments

Ideal Candidate

  • A hands-on contributor rather than a reviewer
  • Comfortable rolling up their sleeves in a lean finance environment
  • Able to learn processes quickly and operate with minimal direction
  • Strong in Excel and financial analysis
  • Adaptable, resourceful, and detail-oriented
