  • Ensuring that all accounting policies and procedures are documented and compliant with relevant GAAP standards and regulatory requirements, including SOX.
  • Evaluating assigned processes and recommending enhancements to maximize efficiency and ensure adherence to internal policies and regulatory requirements.
  • Supporting ad hoc projects as needed.

Qualifications:

The ideal candidate will possess:
  • A Bachelor's degree with a focus in Accounting.
  • A minimum of 3-5 years of accounting experience, which may include public accounting or industry experience (with SOX and accrual experience).
  • CPA qualification is preferred.
  • Experience in implementing significant process and technology enhancements, with substantial functional experience in accounting operations within a publicly traded company.
  • Strong organizational skills and a detail-oriented mindset, capable of independently managing multiple responsibilities and meeting deadlines.
  • In-depth knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles and their application.
  • Proficiency in Excel; experience with Oracle Fusion, Equity Edge, and ADP is advantageous.
  • Familiarity with reporting platforms such as PowerBI, Smartview, Adaptive, and Workiva is a plus.
