• Work closely with management and senior leadership on accounting-related projects and business needs

• Identify opportunities to improve processes and develop a deeper understanding of the company's operations

Requirements

• Strong accounting fundamentals with hands-on experience in general ledger accounting

• Analytical and naturally curious with a desire to understand the business behind the numbers

• Comfortable working independently in a small, entrepreneurial environment

• Strong attention to detail with the ability to see the big picture

• Multi-entity accounting experience is highly preferred

Backgrounds that could be a strong fit include:

• Big 4 or public accounting professionals coming from audit or tax
