Senior Accountant

About the role

Stabbert Maritime is a family-owned company with a proud legacy spanning over 50 years and two generations. We provide a comprehensive range of innovative solutions and support services to clients in the offshore scientific research, subsea, defense, and ship repair industries. This is a hands-on Senior Accountant role supporting core accounting operations across our multi-entity organization. The position maintains general ledger integrity through accurate, timely recording of transactions, supports month-end reconciliations, and backs up payroll, AR, and AP as needed. It is a working role, not a management role — the Senior Accountant is expected to do the work directly, bring strong technical accounting skills, and improve how the team operates.
