Finance/Accounting

• Oversight, as well as transactional responsibilities, for all aspects of finance and accounting, including receivables, payables, trust accounts, expenses, payroll, financial reporting and an internal customer financing service.
• Responsible for the adherence to generally accepted accounting principles, internal finance controls, and government regulations while communicating and updating the impact of the required changes in those regulations.
• The preparation and/or review of reporting packages, including monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports regarding production, growth, profits, trends, costs, and compliance with budgets.
• Develop and track financial standards and metrics.
• Project and manage cash flow.
• Key liaison for financial audit, tax filing and compliance.
