About the CompanyWe are a long-established, capital-intensive advanced manufacturer with decades of history. We operate a large, specialized production facility and are in the middle of a major investment‑backed expansion that is significantly growing our capacity and modernizing our operations.
Benefits- Build, not just maintain – you own fixed assets and CIP during a once‑in‑a‑company‑history capital expansion, with hundreds of millions in new equipment and projects coming online.
- High visibility and real cross‑functional reach – you partner directly with Operations, project managers, and finance leadership across the business rather than sitting in a back‑office silo.
- Investment‑backed momentum – a major, fully funded expansion is underway, with capacity set to roughly double.
- Meaningful complexity and ownership – large gross PPE, long‑lead capital deposits, and incentive‑credit tracking make this a genuinely interesting technical seat.
- Connected, accessible leadership and a culture that rewards smart, hands‑on people who are willing to roll up their sleeves.
This is a critical role in the Finance department with a company‑wide interface. The Fixed Asset Accountant supports business objectives by partnering with management and Operations on all capital project initiatives, and manages all aspects of fixed asset accounting and reporting, including the tracking, management, and capitalization of construction in progress (CIP) assets.

- Review asset purchases, facilities, and repairs/maintenance expenditures for proper accounting classification.
- Complete month‑end closing activities, including system closing and capitalization of capital projects, asset additions/retirements/gain or loss on sale, posting of depreciation expense, and compilation and issuance of monthly fixed asset reporting to management.
- Support the monthly closing process for general accounting, including journal entries and various account reconciliations, including capital deposits.
- Complete year‑end financial closing activities, including preparation of information for external auditors and interaction with auditors for areas of responsibility.
- Manage and coordinate periodic fixed asset physical counts, including documentation, reporting, and retirement tracking and approval.
- Manage and coordinate the quarterly impairment of assets review and assessment, including documentation, reporting, and accounting.
- Produce fixed asset book and tax depreciation expense reporting on a periodic basis.
- Play a key role in the upgrade and management of the fixed asset software module.
- Play a key role in the upgrade and management of the e‑requisition/procurement system, and determine sales tax on various purchases.
- Complete other accounting projects and tasks as assigned.

- 5+ years of accounting experience for fixed assets, including capital project tracking in a manufacturing environment/industry.
- Experience with industry‑leading financial and manufacturing applications, with an understanding of "best practice" systems.
- Experience with leading fixed asset and ERP fixed asset modules considered a plus.
- Experience with the close and audit processes.
- Strong working knowledge of GAAP rules.
- Intermediate‑level Microsoft Excel user required.
