Job description

Senior Manager – Digital Assets

Senior Managers at CFGI work closely with C-level management of high-growth, mid-cap, and public transaction-oriented companies. In Digital Assets, Senior Managers serve as hands‑on engagement leaders for clients with complex trading activity, fragmented data, and evolving accounting operations. This role is designed for a leader who can help stand up or recreate books, drive audit‑ready support, and lead clients through IPO readiness, SEC reporting, and public company execution.

Take ownership of your career at CFGI:

• Gain front‑row exposure to digital asset companies navigating transactions, audit readiness, technical accounting and implementation, finance transformation, and IPO readiness.
• Make a true business impact by helping clients build or rebuild accounting records, reporting processes, and audit‑ready support.
• Own projects from start to finish in lean engagement teams with direct Partner, Director, and client executive visibility.
• Experience meaningful client interaction and thrive in a hands‑on, client‑facing role.
• Be consistently challenged by digital asset accounting complexity, including high‑volume activity, evolving data, close/reporting processes, and reconciliation challenges.
• Enjoy the flexibility of office/remote/client site work locations (engagement specific).
• Create your own path.
• Enjoy what you do!

What you might expect:

• Lead digital asset accounting engagements where clients may not have clean historical books, complete reconciliations, or scalable close processes in place.
• Serve as a hands‑on subject matter resource for digital asset accounting, transaction activity, valuation support, cut‑off, and audit evidence.
• Own client delivery for transaction readiness, audit readiness, technical accounting and implementation, finance transformation, IPO readiness, SEC reporting, audit coordination, and other transaction‑related needs.
• Drive the recreation, remediation, and reconciliation of accounting records across general ledger, subledger, and operational data sources.
• Lead clients through complex accounting issues, develop practical solutions, and ensure those solutions are implemented rather than only documented.
• Coordinate directly with client executives, auditors, legal, tax, operations, technology, and CFGI Partners/Directors to drive execution across multiple workstreams.
• Lead process improvement projects and implement changes that create repeatable, audit‑ready accounting and reporting processes.
• Mentor Managers and Consultants, provide technical guidance, and help grow CFGI’s Digital Assets capabilities.
• Play an active role in recruiting, client relationship building, and business development efforts.

Who you are:

• Eight to twelve years of experience in Big 4 audit, accounting advisory, capital markets advisory, or industry accounting/finance, with a minimum of two years of Big 4 experience required.
• Digital asset accounting, crypto, fintech, broker‑dealer, investment management, or other high‑volume transaction accounting experience.
• Demonstrated ability to stand up, rebuild, or remediate accounting records and reporting support in complex or fragmented data environments.
• Strong technical skills and a working knowledge of U.S. GAAP, SEC reporting, audit readiness, and transaction readiness processes.
• Highly organized and able to set overall engagement expectations, direction, staffing needs, and review protocols.
• Effective analytical and critical thinking abilities with the ability to drive clarity in ambiguous situations.
• Entrepreneurial nature, self‑motivated, ethical, and dependable.
• High energy with commitment to quality client service and positive resolutions to complex issues.
