Accountant

About the role

We're looking for an Accountant to join our growing Finance team and play a key role in the company's monthly accounting close process. This is not a narrow, single-function accounting position.

Responsibilities

• Prepare and post journal entries, including payroll, commissions, revenue, accruals, allocations, and inventory-related entries.
• Aid in monthly, quarterly, and annual accounting close activities.
• Perform balance sheet reconciliations and maintain supporting schedules.
• Prepare profit and loss schedules and supporting financial analyses.
• Manage fixed asset and intangible asset accounting, including additions, disposals, depreciation, and amortization.
• Process vendor invoices and maintain accounts payable records.
• Manage vendor relationships and respond to payment inquiries.
• Process company checks and assist with cash disbursement activities.
• Administer corporate credit card programs and reconcile transactions.
• Support preparation of internal financial reports and management reporting packages.
• Assist with debt reporting and lender reporting requirements.
• Analyze financial data and provide insights to support business decision-making.
• Maintain accurate accounting records and documentation.
• Support state and local tax filings, business registrations, and related compliance requirements.
• Affirm accounting records are maintained in accordance with company policies and accounting standards.
• Assist with audit requests and supporting documentation as needed.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field.
• 3 - 4 years of accounting experience minimum, including exposure to month-end close processes.
• Strong understanding of general accounting principles and financial statement preparation.
• Understanding of GAAP and ASC standards.
• Experience working with ERP or accounting software such as NetSuite, QuickBooks, or similar systems.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets, including Pivot Tables, XLOOKUPs, and financial data analysis.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.
• Excellent organizational and time management skills.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in a multi-location or high-growth company environment.
• Experience with inventory accounting and cost accounting principles.
• Experience preparing accruals, prepaids, and balance sheet reconciliations independently.
• Experience with NetSuite strongly preferred.
• Familiarity with financial reporting, budgeting, and variance analysis.
