Job Description & How to Apply Below
Contract | 3–9 months | Day rate + expenses | Travel M–F, CONUSThe mandate
Something broke in the accounting function — a sudden departure, a balance sheet that will not reconcile, a system conversion no one has the bandwidth to run. You step in fast, stabilize the close, clean up what is wrong, and hand back a function that produces reliable numbers.
Speed of deployment matters here. These placements often move within days.
What you’ll own- Month-end and year-end close, including reconciliation and cleanup of legacy issues
- Balance sheet integrity — inventory, accruals, reserves, intercompany, and anything else that has drifted
- Accounting system transition or ERP financial module implementation and data migration
- Internal controls and process documentation
- Audit preparation and management of the external audit relationship
- Day-to-day management of the accounting team
- Support to the CFO or sponsor on reporting, diligence requests, and quality of earnings work
- 10+ years in accounting, with at least 3 in a controller or assistant controller role
- Manufacturing environment experience, including inventory and cost accounting
- A record of cleaning up genuinely messy books, not just maintaining clean ones
- Hands‑on ERP experience — you can work in the system, not just review its output
- CPA strongly preferred
- Ability to start on short notice and be on site five days a week
Strong plus: ERP conversion or migration lead experience; PE portfolio company reporting; audit background; multi‑entity or multi‑site consolidation.
