Our client, a dynamic and growing player in the manufacturing space, is seeking a proactive and detail-oriented GL Accountant to join their accounting team. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, multi-entity environment and is passionate about digging into the numbers to understand the story behind them.

• Inventory & Intercompany Transactions (50%) – Manage inventory accounting across 2–3 entities, ensuring accuracy and consistency.
• Handle intercompany transactions between a parent company and three subsidiaries, including eliminations for a fifth consolidation entity.
• Collaborate with team members (starting with Alex) to understand and refine processes.
• Maintain and run depreciation schedules for fixed assets across two entities, with flexibility to support additional entities as they’re added.
• Month‑End Close Support & Journal Entries (50%) – Own prepaids, accruals, journal entries, and reconciliations.
• Ensure accuracy of the books and support monthly close processes.
• Apply ASC 842 lease accounting standards to liabilities.
• Partner with Sheri (once bandwidth allows) to deepen involvement in close activities.

To Succeed As a GL Accountant, You’ll Need a Strong Foundation In General Accounting And a Curious, Communicative Mindset. The Ideal Candidate Will

• Have 5+ years of experience in general accounting (beyond AP/AR), including accruals, prepaids, inventory, and fixed assets.
• Understand AR/AP workflows and documentation, though not responsible for processing.
• Be assertive, proactive, and able to adapt experience to fit company-specific processes.
• Demonstrate a natural curiosity—someone who asks questions, digs into data, and seeks to understand the “why” behind the numbers.
• Be proficient in Excel, including VLOOKUP and Pivot Tables.

• Experience with ASC 842 lease accounting.
• Exposure to multi‑entity consolidations.
• Familiarity with manufacturing industry accounting practices.

This is more than just a GL Accountant role—it’s an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a collaborative, growth‑oriented environment. You’ll work alongside a team that values curiosity, clear communication, and proactive problem‑solving.

If you’re a GL Accountant who’s ready to roll up your sleeves, normalize complex data, and help shape financial accuracy across a multi‑entity structure, we want to hear from you.
