Amazon is a pioneering, dynamic, and energetic company that thrives on unique and peculiar ways.

We take pride in our single-minded obsession over customer satisfaction and our ability to maintain a curious and vibrant culture no matter how large the company grows.

We endeavor to build our legacy as Earth's most customer-centric company and to continue to cultivate and nourish our innovative environment through our mission to hire the best.

If you are a financial accounting professional who consistently exceeds expectations, who dares to make bold decisions, and whose ears perk up at the prospect of a challenge, then Amazon is a place where your career can flourish.

When working at Amazon, your ability to make a difference and take ownership of your career begins on day one.

You can expect a collaborative, team-driven environment that encourages employees to learn, be curious, and have a bias for action.

Part of this propensity for continuous learning shows itself in Amazon's strong encouragement of movement and growth within the Accounting department and within the company as a whole.

Amazon's accounting group offers opportunities at the Senior Accountant level in Legal Entity & Intercompany, Accounting Policy & Reporting, Operations and Capital, Transportation, Payments & Merchant Services, Retail Operations, Digital, and AWS Accounting.

This position will have responsibility for supporting all aspects of lease accounting.

In addition, this position will be expected to understand internal control design concepts sufficient to assess the effectiveness of controls in their area and to design new processes and controls for emerging and growing business activities.

Candidates will be expected to demonstrate they were top performers at their level.

Key job responsibilities

  • Manage the period-end close process by ensuring the accurate and timely completion of all lease accounting entries and reconciliations.
  • Manage key leased life cycle events
  • Perform analytical review of lease related balances and provide balance sheet account movements to support cash flow reporting
  • Drive projects, provide accounting guidance and often serve as first point of contact for finance and business partners to resolve issues.
  • Ensure effective collaboration and influence across multiple organizations with partner teams and stakeholders.
We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:

Arlington, VA, USA | Seattle, WA, USA

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
