A privately held, multi-division organization is seeking an experienced Senior Accountant to play a critical role in financial leadership, reporting, and operational support. This is a highly visible position reporting directly to the President, with regular interaction with executive leadership and a parent company.
This opportunity is ideal for a hands-on accounting professional who enjoys owning the close, leading a small team, and translating financial data into meaningful insights for leadership.
What You’ll Do
Financial Leadership & Close
- Lead the monthly close process for multiple operating divisions
- Prepare and review Balance Sheets, P&Ls, and journal entries
- Manage inter-divisional billing
- Understand and apply percentage-of-completion accounting and WIP for project-based operations
- Oversee inventory tracking and basic vehicle leasing/financing
- Deliver monthly and quarterly reporting to parent-company leadership
Team & Cross-Functional Leadership
- Manage and mentor a support team of 2–3 accounting staff handling AP, AR, bank reconciliations, and payroll coordination
- Partner with internal HR and parent-company HR on benefits administration (group health, 401(k), and related plans)
- Collaborate with IT leadership and support basic system integrations
Systems, Reporting & Analytics
- Maintain and optimize accounting operations in QuickBooks Online (with a future transition to Sage)
- Leverage Excel and Microsoft 365 at an advanced level for reporting and analysis
- Support and interpret data from job costing and customer service operating systems
- Develop, refine, and communicate KPIs and financial insights to executive and mid-level management
What We’re Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (Master’s preferred)
- 3–5 years of experience leading accounting teams
- Strong experience with monthly close and multi-entity accounting
- Advanced Excel skills and comfort with financial modeling and reporting
- Working knowledge of benefits administration and payroll coordination
- Ability to communicate clearly and confidently with senior leadership
- Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable in a fast-moving environment
Why This Role Stands Out
- Direct access to executive leadership
- Broad scope with real influence on operations and strategy
- Opportunity to help shape processes, reporting, and systems
- Stable organization with multiple operating divisions
- Trusted, senior-level role with room for long-term impact
If you’re a seasoned accounting professional ready to step into a visible, trusted leadership role, we encourage you to apply.
