This hands-on role manages payroll, bonus, commission, benefits, insurance, and severance accounting across the full cycle—from journal entries and accruals through reconciliation, variance analysis, and audit support.

You will reconcile headcount and compensation data across HRIS, payroll platform, and general ledger; partner with HR/People and FP&A on compensation and headcount variance analysis; review vendor onboarding and AP transactions; perform monthly bank reconciliations; support month-end close activities; conduct ad-hoc financial and operational analytics; leverage AI tools to automate recurring workflows; support payroll and HRIS implementations; and assist with process optimization and SOX-ready internal control enhancements.
