Additionally, you will perform monthly variance analyses and deliver actionable financial insights to leadership and stakeholders. The role emphasizes identifying opportunities to leverage accounting technology, automation, and AI tools to streamline close workflows and enhance reporting efficiency.
Required qualifications include a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Accounting or Finance, 3+ years of progressive accounting experience with 2–3 years in national public accounting, and an active CPA or CPA candidate status. You must have strong technical knowledge of US GAAP, internal control frameworks, and proven experience managing full-cycle audit engagements. Proficiency with modern ERP systems (NetSuite, Oracle, SAP) and advanced Excel skills are essential.
