Partner with project leaders and departmental management to provide accounting guidance and support business decisions.
Maintain accounting documentation and assemble supporting records needed for internal and external audit requests while helping uphold control requirements.
Produce special analyses and custom reports for leadership, and provide broader accounting assistance as business needs evolve.
Provide coverage for payroll and other accounting duties during team absences to help ensure deadlines are met.
Coordinate with accounts payable on invoice coding and vendor payment follow-through to promote timely and accurate processing.

At least 3 years of accounting experience in a hands-on role.
Strong working knowledge of general ledger accounting, month-end close, journal entries, and account reconciliations.
Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel for analysis, reporting, and account support.
Experience with ERP platforms; Oracle experience is preferred, and exposure to consolidation tools such as OneStream is a plus.
