• Research discrepancies and help ensure accurate financial records

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance or related field
• Approximately 5 years of relevant accounting experience
• Strong, hands‑on month-end close experience
• Experience processing payroll - not simply recording payroll entries
• Solid general accounting foundation across GL, reconciliations, journal entries, AP and AR
• Knowledge of GAAP
• Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills
• A collaborative, flexible attitude and willingness to jump in where needed
