We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.

• Coordinate with cross-functional partners to operationalize new areas of the business to facilitate streamlined accounting transactions
• With major system experience, recognize the links upstream/downstream and verbalize the impacts & reliance internal business partners have on the various functions.

• Participate in critical accounting projects, including the implementation of new system logics or enhancements.
• Provide project requirements and coordinate, manage and oversee any testing to improve existing processes and automate any related systems
• Provide support for internal and external audits related to specific areas of responsibility
