Technical Accounting - Manager

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Keep all substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Key sections: - Intro paragraph about CohnReznick growth, etc. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the firm". The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content. We have: - Intro: "As CohnReznick grows, so do our career opportunities..." This is about firm and role. Could be placed under

About the role

with paragraphs. - Then: "YOUR TEAM." paragraph describing team work. Could be part of About the role or separate? Might fit under About the role. - Then: "WHY COHNREZNICK?" describing mission, benefits, total rewards. This could be Benefits section? It includes generous PTO, flexible work environment, expanded parental leave, extensive learning & development, paid volunteer time. That's benefits. So we can put under

Benefits

. - Then: "YOUR ROLE." then "Responsibilities" heading inside text. So we need a

Responsibilities

with list of duties. - Then: "Your Experience." then list of qualifications/experience. Could be Requirements or Qualifications. We'll decide: maybe

Requirements

for experience and qualifications. Also there is "Your Experience." includes bullet-like sentences. We'll put as

• . - Also there is mention of "Universal Job Standards" and encouragement to apply, diversity statement. That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove. - Also there is legal text about brand name, alternative practice structure, etc. That's boilerplate; remove. - Also there is accommodation email etc. Remove. - Also there is unsolicited resumes note. Remove. Thus we need to produce HTML with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Benefits. Possibly Skills? The posting mentions proficiency with Microsoft Office, etc. Could be Skills. But we can incorporate into Requirements. We must not create Pay or Schedule sections because not mentioned. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract substantive content. Intro paragraphs: "As CohnReznick grows, so do our career opportunities. As one of the nation’s top professional services firms, CohnReznick creates rewarding careers in advisory, assurance, and tax with team members who value innovation and collaboration in everything they do! CohnReznick helps organizations optimize performance, manage risk, and maximize value through CohnReznick LLP (assurance services) and CohnReznick Advisory LLC (advisory and tax services). Together, the firm provides leaders with deep industry knowledge and relationships, solutions to address clients’ unique business goals and risks, and insight on how emerging market forces can drive opportunity. With offices nationwide, the firm serves organizations around the world as an independent member of Nexia. We currently have an exciting career opportunity for a Manager to join our Technical Accounting team in our CFO Advisory practice. Due to the nature of this role, this position is considered 100% on-site which means it must be consistently performed at an assigned CohnReznick office location and requires daily commute to the office location." That's substantive. Next: "YOUR TEAM. The group works with the office of the CFO function from startups to middle market to upper middle market companies. We help CFOs navigate strategic, operational, and accounting challenges. We regularly assist them in preparing for a public or a private transaction and work closely with the M&A group in providing pre and post-transaction support. Come and join us in our journey to helping other finance and accounting executives conceptualize and develop the finance and accounting infrastructure to scale for success." That's also substantive; could be part of About the role. Next: "WHY COHNREZNICK? At CohnReznick, we’re united by a common mission to create opportunity, value, and trust for our clients, our people, and our communities. Whether it’s working alongside your peers to solve a client challenge, or volunteering together at the local food bank, there are so many ways to find your “why” at the firm. We believe it’s important to balance work with everyday life – and make time for enjoyment and fun. We invest in a robust Total Rewards package that includes everything from generous PTO, a flexible work environment, expanded parental leave, extensive learning & development, and even paid time off for employees to volunteer." That's Benefits. Next: "YOUR ROLE. Responsibilities Responsibilities include but not limited to: Manage and prepare the external SEC financial statements and filing processes, including drafting of financial statements, equity roll forward, EPS calculation, footnotes, and Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A), completing SEC and GAAP checklists to include in quarterly reviewed and annually audited financial statements, ensuring compliance under U.S. GAAP and the SEC reporting requirements, as applicable Oversee technical accounting research and documentation of new accounting guidance, policies and procedures impacting the client’s financial statements. Monitor the activities of all accounting standard setting bodies, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), the SEC, and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), and support analysis of the accounting and reporting effects of new standards. Research the accounting/disclosure requirements of new accounting standards and transactions, considering relevant accounting literature and the effect of the new standard or transaction on the client’s accounting policies and financial documents. Work with clients and external auditors to collect information and input into the above referenced reports; coordinate, review and collect comments on the various drafts; prepare support files for all disclosures; challenge the appropriateness of disclosures; complete all relevant disclosure checklists and reporting questionnaires. Provide training, mentoring and participation in all aspects of external public company reporting Organize and communicate status related to assignments and projects Identify and proactively engage in business development activities including expanding client relationships, evaluating new market opportunities, and building relationships on behalf of the firm" We need to split into list items. Next: "Your Experience. The successful candidate will have: Five (5+) years of related progressive experience in public accounting or a mix in similar accounting field Proficiency with disaggregating, analyzing, and reconciling consolidated financial data in an accurate and timely manner Understanding of general accounting policies and procedures at a transaction level Candidate must have direct experience with SEC reporting (Regulation S-X and S-K) and preparation of financial statements and footnotes of public companies Prior experience in developing and addressing accounting issues with relevant guidance, application, and judgements supporting conclusions Proficient in Microsoft Office software applications, specifically Excel, Word, and PowerPoint Bachelor's degree in Accounting Three (3+) years of relevant leadership experience, Big 4 or large regional experience preferred Experience leading teams and multiple projects Experience with SEC reporting, working with Workiva (WDesk) or similar SEC reporting tools Experience working with general ledger systems and reporting packages An active CPA, CA or equivalent" Also there is a paragraph about Universal Job Standards encouraging to apply if not meeting all qualifications; that's EEO/encouragement; we should remove as boilerplate? It's not exactly EEO but it's encouraging to apply even if not meeting all qualifications. Might be considered part of the posting but it's generic. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is not exactly EEO but it's a generic encouragement. Might be considered boilerplate; safer to remove. Then there is legal text about brand name etc. Remove. Thus final sections:
