Accounting Manager

Position Overview

The Accounting Manager is a key leadership role within AvonRisk's corporate accounting and finance function, supporting a rapidly growing workers' compensation and liability third-party administrator (TPA).

Responsibilities

• Own and manage assigned areas of the multi-entity month-end close, including journal entries, accruals, and intercompany activity, ensuring completion on time and to a high standard.
• Supervise and develop staff accountants and clerks; review their work, mentor their growth, and own the timeliness and integrity of the close for the assigned area.
• Prepare and review balance-sheet reconciliations; investigate and clear variances rather than carrying them forward.
• Maintain accuracy in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, including vendor setup, GL coding, and journal and cash-receipt import files.
• Administer bank activity and positive-pay files and perform account analyses with banking partners; uphold and enforce segregation-of-duties and approval controls over disbursements.
• Review and code corporate expenses, support accounts-payable workflows, and reconcile related accounts.
• Produce internal and management reporting, support liquidity and cash forecasting, and contribute to financial dashboards used by leadership.
• Prepare schedules and supporting documentation for the annual external audit; serve as a primary point of contact for external auditors and lender and regulatory reporting.
• Document, standardize, and improve recurring accounting processes, and lead the integration of acquired entities and new systems onto consistent close procedures.

Requirements

• Strong general-ledger and reconciliation fundamentals, including full-cycle month-end close and close ownership.
• Demonstrated supervisory or lead experience, including reviewing others' work and developing staff.
• Advanced Excel skills (complex formulas, pivot tables, data connections, and large-data cleanup).
• Strong attention to detail and the ownership instinct to close items rather than carry them.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, including with banking partners, auditors, and internal stakeholders.
• Able to prioritize and manage multiple discrete priorities in a dynamic, high-volume environment and provide timely follow-up and resolution.
• Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or a comparable ERP preferred.
• Insurance, TPA, claims administration, trust/fiduciary, or other multi-entity, high-transaction-volume experience preferred.

Education & Experience

• Bachelor's or master's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline.
• CPA or active progress toward one is a plus.
• 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, including demonstrated supervisory or lead experience.
