Senior Staff Accountant

$110k - $130k

Creative Financial Staffing

Job Title: Senior Staff Accountant
Location: Lakewood, Ohio - Hybrid
Schedule: Full-Time, Monday - Friday
Salary: $110,000-$130,000



Position Overview (Senior Staff Accountant):



We are seeking an analytical and technically strong Senior Staff Accountant to play a key role in general accounting, month-end close, financial reporting, reconciliations, and day-to-day accounting operations.


This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys digging into the details, researching discrepancies, and finding solutions rather than simply following an established process. The ideal candidate brings strong accounting fundamentals, advanced Excel skills, and a proactive mindset to a fast-paced, growing environment.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out (Senior Staff Accountant):

  • Exposure and visibility to leadership
  • Opportunity to take ownership of complex, meaningful accounting projects and process improvements
  • Role that values critical thinking and problem-solving, not just transactional accounting
  • Ability to make an impact as the organization continues to grow and evolve
  • Hybrid flexibility with a downtown Cleveland location
  • Bonus potential and profit sharing
  • 4 Weeks of PTO from day one
Key Responsibilities (Senior Staff Accountant):
  • Prepare journal entries, account reconciliations, accruals, and supporting schedules as part of the month-end close process
  • Analyze general ledger activity and investigate variances, discrepancies, and unusual transactions
  • Prepare financial statements, management reporting, and ad hoc financial analyses
  • Support AP, AR, fixed assets, prepaid expenses, and other general ledger activities
  • Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting
  • Identify opportunities to streamline processes, strengthen internal controls, and improve efficiency
  • Support internal and external audits by preparing schedules and requested documentation
Qualifications (Senior Staff Accountant):
  • 5-8+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP, general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and month-end close
  • Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups, complex formulas, data manipulation, and financial modeling
  • Self-starter who takes ownership and can work effectively with limited direction
  • Excellent attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
  • Comfortable working through ambiguity, researching issues, and developing solutions or processes when one does not already exist
