  • Strategic Leadership: Deliver actionable insights and present internal financial reports to senior leadership to drive profitability.
Requirements
  • Bachelor’s in Accounting, Finance, or related field; MBA/CPA preferred.
  • 7–10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership roles.
  • Expertise in POC accounting (ASC 606), ERP systems (e.g., SAP), and Power BI. Cost accounting is a plus.
  • Advanced analytical forecasting, process improvement, change management, and a strong ability to influence operational stakeholders.

  • Benefits
