The Opportunity

We're looking for a tech-forward, Senior Bookkeeping Analyst with advanced bookkeeping experience to join our Client Advisory Services (CAS) practice. This is not traditional bookkeeping.

• Prepare reconciliations, working papers, and supporting schedules

• Identify variances, unusual activity, trends, and potential risks
• Summarize insights and key observations clearly and concisely
