Experience working with payroll systems, preferably ADP Workforce Now, and ERP/general ledger systems.
Strong understanding of debits, credits, accrual accounting, and general ledger reconciliations.
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
Exceptional attention to detail with strong analytical and problem solving abilities.
Excellent communication and organizational skills.
