Job Description & How to Apply Below

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Our client is a private equity-backed manufacturing technology company
• This is a high-impact opportunity to help build structure, processes, and controls in a historically paper-heavy environment
• Strong leadership visibility with direct exposure to both company leadership and private equity stakeholders
• Opportunity to be part of a growing accounting team with multiple new hires planned, creating strong internal mobility potential
• PE firm is actively engaged and supportive, driving modernization and process improvement initiatives
• Hands-on accounting role with broad exposure across month-end close, reconciliations, and cash operations
• Clear opportunity to grow into expanded responsibilities including inventory and cost accounting as the function matures
• Stable manufacturing business with a niche focus on healthcare safety and security solutions
• Ideal environment for a motivated accounting professional looking to build foundational experience in a transformation setting
Key Responsibilities for the Staff Accountant:
• Assist with month-end close process including journal entries and account reconciliations
• Prepare and maintain balance sheet reconciliations with accuracy and timeliness
• Record and post journal entries across multiple accounts and business functions
• Prepare daily cash reporting and cash balance tracking
• Support general ledger maintenance and accounting accuracy
• Assist with early-stage inventory analysis and cost accounting initiatives as the function develops
• Partner with accounting team members to improve processes and reduce manual, paper-based workflows
• Utilize Macola ERP system for accounting entries and reporting support
• Assist with ad hoc accounting projects and operational improvements as assigned
Qualifications for the Staff Accountant:
• 1+ years of accounting experience with exposure to journal entries and reconciliations required
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting preferred (Associate's degree considered with strong experience)
• Manufacturing experience is a plus but not required
• Strong Excel and general accounting system skills
• Detail-oriented with strong organizational and analytical abilities
• Eager to learn, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively within a small, hands-on accounting team
• Must be comfortable working fully on-site in a collaborative environment
