Job description

Ready to step into a true #2 accounting role where your work directly impacts company growth? This Accountant opportunity offers broad exposure across accounting, cost accounting, inventory, payroll, and financial reporting while partnering closely with an experienced CFO in a growing manufacturing organization.

If you’re an Accountant who enjoys wearing multiple hats, values accuracy, and wants visibility with leadership rather than being one of many in a large finance department, this Accountant position deserves a closer look.

Senior Accountant

Salary: $65,000 – $75,000

Location: 100% Onsite. Open to candidates within a reasonable commute range of company headquarters.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Join a growing manufacturing company adding headcount due to business expansion, not turnover
• Work directly with the CFO and gain exposure to high-level financial operations and decision-making
• Be the go-to Accountant supporting a wide range of accounting functions instead of being siloed into one specialty area
• Build valuable experience in cost accounting, inventory management, payroll, and month-end close activities
• Enjoy a family-oriented culture that prioritizes employee well-being, flexibility, and long-term success
• Receive mentorship and support for professional development, including CPA or CMA career goals
• Contribute to a stable and growing manufacturing organization with strong leadership visibility
• Benefit from a collaborative environment where ideas are welcomed and personal growth is encouraged
• Competitive benefits package including healthcare coverage, 401(k) match, paid time off, life insurance, and additional company-sponsored benefits

Key Responsibilities for the Accountant:

• Prepare and reconcile bank accounts and general ledger accounts

• Assist with cost accounting, inventory valuation, cycle counts, and variance analysis
• Process accounts payable activities and support accounts receivable functions
• Assist with weekly payroll processing, employee record updates, and payroll reporting
• Support audit activities and maintain accurate financial records and documentation

Qualifications for the Accountant:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field preferred
