• Support annual budget and monthly forecast preparation, including reporting formats for headquarters.
• Provide actual versus budget and actual versus forecast comparisons to department leaders.
• Prepare consolidated actual results for corporate departments.
• Assist with year‑end audit, consolidation activities, and SOX compliance documentation.
• Contribute to special projects and ad hoc analysis that improve financial visibility and business decision‑making.

What Will Help You Succeed:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA or CPA‑track candidates are preferred.
• 1–3 years of relevant accounting, finance, audit, or public accounting experience.
• Working knowledge of U.S. GAAP and a strong interest in financial reporting, analysis, and controls.
• Experience with a large‑scale ERP system; Oracle experience is preferred.
• Strong Excel skills and proficiency with Microsoft Office.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem‑solving skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• High attention to detail, sound judgment, and the ability to work independently in a deadline‑driven environment.
• Financial planning and analysis experience is a plus.

WhatYou’llGain:

• Broad accounting experience across close, reporting, reconciliations, audit, GAAP, SOX, budgeting, and forecasting.
• Visibility to department leaders through reporting and actual versus forecast analysis.
• Experience in a corporate accounting environment supported by established systems and processes.
• Opportunities to build a strong foundation for continued growth in accounting, finance, audit, or FP&A.
