Job description

Accountant

Salary: $85,000–$90,000 (DOE)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Real ownership of the accounting for multiple smaller operating companies—not just a slice of the process
• Direct access to senior finance leadership, including the VP of Finance and Assistant Controller
• Broad exposure to multi-entity accounting, consolidations, and portfolio-level reporting
• Clear runway for growth into senior accounting, consolidation, or controller-level roles
• Stable, long-term organization with a permanent-capital mindset (not traditional private equity)
• Opportunity to translate accounting into real business insight for operations and leadership
• Family-oriented, collaborative culture that values judgment, curiosity, and development
• On-site environment with flexibility and “professional courtesy” when life happens

Key Responsibilities for the Accountant:

• Own month-end close for assigned operating companies
• Prepare journal entries, account reconciliations, and variance analysis
• Support corporate consolidation entries and reporting packages
• Prepare monthly financial statements and balance sheet reviews
• Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and ad hoc financial analysis
• Partner with local management to provide financial insight

Qualifications for the Accountant:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance
• 2–3 years of hands‑on accounting experience
• Strong foundation in GAAP and month‑end close processes
• Experience working across multiple entities or accounts
