Who We Are Looking For:
We are seeking an Accounting Manager to run the monthly close and the day-to-day accounting
operations of a fast-growing manufacturing company. You will own the close calendar, the
reconciliation process, and the accounting procedures the rest of the team executes against —and manage the staff who perform that work.
The ideal candidate is a strong technical accountant who also enjoys managing people and
process, and who wants to tighten and document a close that is still being built.
