About the Role

The Fixed Assets Accountant is responsible for the financial management of the company’s global asset base. This role oversees the end-to-end lifecycle of capital projects and fixed assets—from initial project approval and capitalization to depreciation, disposals, and retirements.

What You'll Do

• This role will oversee the end-to-end lifecycle of capital projects and fixed asset management—from project initiation and capitalization through depreciation, disposals, retirements and payments.
• Conduct variance analysis of actual results versus budget and forecast.
• Ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP (ASC 360 – Property, Plant & Equipment) and company accounting policies.
• Be detail-oriented, self-starter looking for a meaningful opportunity to manage, organize, and prioritize multiple projects while meeting deadlines and cross-functionally providing on-time deliverables for the Finance team.
• Act as the subject matter expert on the utilization of the SAP fixed asset system/subledger.
• Prepare and review monthly close activities including depreciation, impairment analysis, reconciliations, and rollforwards.
• Support preparation of quarterly/annual financial statements, including footnote disclosures.
• Maintain strong SOX-compliant controls around fixed asset processes, including reconciliations, approvals, and system security.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Tax, Treasury, Operations, FP&A, and External Reporting to ensure accurate treatment of capital expenditures.
• Participate in other miscellaneous projects and tasks as needed.

What You Bring

• Must have a Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance and 5+ years in public accounting, large organization, or publicly traded company.
• Strong technical knowledge and experience applying GAAP.
• Significant experience with PP&E and CapEx investments.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to drive process improvements, work independently, and think objectively.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and ERP systems (e.g., Oracle, SAP).
• Outstanding communication and presentation skills, with the ability to effectively communicate financial concepts to non-financial partners.
• Must be comfortable working in a fast-paced, changing environment, with the expectation of increasing responsibility and scope over time as proficiency in the position develops.
