  • Mentor and develop the financial reporting team, creating a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Requirements:

  • CPA certification required; Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required, Master’s degree or MBA preferred.
  • 12+ years of progressive accounting experience with deep expertise in financial reporting and technical accounting, including public accounting and corporate reporting.
  • Proven experience in SEC reporting, 10-K/10-Q preparation, and public-company financial reporting environment.
  • Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP across revenue recognition, business combinations, leases, stock-based compensation, and consolidation.

  • Demonstrated ability to research, document, and communicate complex accounting positions with clarity and authority.
  • Experience managing audits, external stakeholder reporting, and SOX-compliant controls.
  • Exceptional organizational, analytical, and communication skills; ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience with M&A accounting, integrations, and multi-entity consolidations is a strong plus.

Benefits:

  • Competitive annual salary range: $180,000–$225,000, with performance bonus and equity participation.
