** Job Description
** The Cox Family Office Finance Team is seeking a highly motivated, detail‐oriented Senior Accountant to join our Individual & Trust Accounting team – an integral function at the heart of a sophisticated and dynamic family office environment. This unique role provides the opportunity to contribute across a wide range of accounting functions, supporting the financial administration of high‐net‐worth individuals, a multi-generational family, and strategic trust structures.

As part of a collaborative and service-driven team, the ideal candidate brings strong technical expertise, a refined attention to detail, and a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset. A role within Family Office finance represents one of the most distinctive and intellectually rewarding niches within the broader financial services industry. Unlike traditional corporate finance or public accounting, a family office operates as a private wealth management firm dedicated exclusively to serving the complex financial needs of ultra-high-net-worth families – managing assets across multiple generations, geographies, and asset classes simultaneously.

Professionals in this space gain rare, cross-functional exposure to sophisticated investment portfolios, trust and estate structures, tax planning, philanthropic vehicles, and direct private investments – all under one roof. The family office model demands a uniquely elevated standard of discretion, judgment, and technical depth, and in return offers unparalleled breadth of experience and long-term career development within a collegial, mission-driven environment.

This individual will report to the Manager of Accounting in the Finance Group. He/she may collaborate with the additional teams within the Family Office. The Senior Accountant will be based in Atlanta. In-office days will be required.

* Performing bank reconciliations and balance sheet reconciliations.

* Prepare the monthly close process.
* Partnering with internal teams to coordinate accounting matters and improve processes.
* Learning and adhering to all relevant company accounting policies.
* Leading special projects, process improvement initiatives, and ad hoc tasks as assigned.

We are seeking a collaborative and resourceful professional with strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively. The ideal candidate is receptive to feedback, committed to continuous learning, and demonstrates sound judgment when handling sensitive financial information. This individual is a self-starter who operates with a high degree of discretion, professionalism, and accountability.
