About The Role

We're looking for a senior accountant to join our accounting and finance team, working closely with the controller and CFO. This is a role with real ownership from day one: you'll help lead the month-end close and manage accounts receivable, building great working relationships with our clients along the way.

This is a small-company role in the best sense. Your work won't disappear into a corporate machine; you'll see the impact of what you do in how we operate and grow. If you're curious by nature, enjoy understanding the business behind the numbers and get satisfaction from taking an idea all the way to the finish line, you'll feel right at home here.

What You'll Do

• Help lead the month-end close process, including journal entries, account reconciliations and financial statement preparation
• Take ownership of close tasks from start to finish, with the trust and autonomy to manage them your way
• Manage accounts receivable: monitor aging, keep in friendly and professional contact with clients and help keep our cash flow healthy
• Be a go-to resource for accounting questions from other departments and clients, seeing requests through to resolution
• Assist the controller with the annual external audit by pulling together schedules and supporting documentation as needed
• Support our NetSuite implementation, including data validation, process design and testing
• Maintain and improve accounting processes, controls and documentation
• Support the controller with ad hoc analysis, reporting and special projects
• Identify opportunities to streamline close and collections workflows, then implement them
• Learn the business beyond the numbers and bring insights that help us grow

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance or a related field
• 5-10 years of progressive accounting experience, including month-end close ownership
• Experience managing AR collections, including direct customer follow-up
• Strong working knowledge of GAAP
• Proficiency in NetSuite (or a comparable ERP) and Excel
• A self-starter mindset: you enjoy taking initiative and seeing your work through
• Great follow-through: people know that when something lands with you, it gets handled
• Genuine curiosity: you ask why, dig into how the business works and connect the numbers to what's happening on the ground
• Excitement about a small-company environment where you get variety in your work and can see your impact on company outcomes
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple deadlines
• Clear, proactive communication with teammates, leadership and external partners

NICE TO HAVE

• CPA or CPA candidate
• Exposure to supporting an external audit
• Experience with a NetSuite implementation or ERP migration
• Experience in a professional services or subscription revenue environment
• Experience improving or documenting close, collections or inbox/ticketing processes

What We Offer

• $80,000–$110,000 base salary, based on experience
• Comprehensive health, dental and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match, plus profit sharing
• Three or more weeks of paid time off
• Professional development opportunities, including our CPG Academy leadership program
• The chance to see your impact directly: at our size, good work changes company outcomes
