If you’re driven, take initiative, and want to grow with a company that’s building, this is a great spot.

Responsibilities

• Maintain and review general ledger accounts and prepare and adjust journal entries
• Perform account reconciliations and analysis, including bank statements and expense accruals
• Assist with month-end close, financial statement prep, budgets, and monthly financial analysis
• Spot process gaps and recommend improvements as the company grows and integrates acquisitions

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance1 to 2+ years of corporate accounting experience (public accounting backgrounds with some corporate exposure welcome)
• Solid understanding of GL, reconciliations, and month-end close, with strong attention to detail
• Self-starter who’s comfortable in a changing environment, with a CPA or MBA a plus
