About Asahi Beer USA / Octopi Brewing

Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. Our Finance team keeps the business side of Octopi and Asahi as sharp as our production side — and the Staff Accountant plays a key role in keeping our books accurate, audit-ready, and on time.

1–3 years of accounting experience preferred
2-year accounting or business degree with 1–2 years of related experience, or a 4-year accounting degree
Working knowledge of GAAP and financial reporting principles
Proficient in Microsoft Excel and accounting software/ERP systems
Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail

Nice-to-haves:

Familiarity with accounts payable and accounts receivable processes
