Senior Accountant (Contract/Contract to Hire)
About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing, multi-brand e-commerce company, operating a family of direct-to-consumer brands alongside a services business. The company is investing heavily in technology, including AI, and is at an exciting inflection point in its growth. This is a great opportunity to join a high-growth organization and help build a scalable accounting function.

Culture

The team values energy and grit, a bias toward action, ownership and accountability, and a collaborative, low-ego approach. They work hard, move fast, and keep perspective.

About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Senior Accountant to own the month-end close across a family of companies and keep the books clean as the business grows. You'll run the close for multiple entities, keep everything GAAP-compliant, and be the go-to for reconciliations, tax remittance, and audit support. Great looks like a close that's on time, accurate, and a little faster every month.

What

You'll Own
  • Run the month-end close for multiple entities, including preparing and recording journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations.
  • Maintain and balance general ledger and subsidiary accounts by verifying, allocating, posting, and reconciling transactions and resolving discrepancies.
  • Prepare monthly financial statements and supporting schedules, including budget-to-actual reports and variance analysis.
  • Apply revenue recognition under ASC 606 and support gross profit analysis.
  • Ensure timely remittance of sales and use, federal and state, and franchise taxes.
  • Keep all accounting work compliant with GAAP, company policies, and other regulatory requirements.
  • Manage the company expense system and make sure reimbursements go out on time.
  • Support the planning, coordination, and execution of the annual audit.
  • Partner with finance leadership on reporting needs, special projects, and ad hoc requests.
What You'll Drive
  • Investigate and resolve accounting issues, and recommend controls that keep them from coming back.
  • Spot inefficiencies in current practices, recommend process improvements, and help implement them.
  • Help build tools and processes that make the monthly financial statement review faster and more accurate.
  • Provide quantitative analysis that helps leadership make strategic decisions.
What We're Looking For
  • 3–5 years of progressive accounting experience, including month-end close, GAAP financial reporting, and sales tax compliance; public accounting experience strongly preferred.
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, plus strong Excel and Net Suite skills.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and strong critical thinking, with the ability to communicate clearly with leadership and cross-functional partners.
  • A proactive approach to ambiguous problems: figuring out what's broken and acting on it rather than waiting to be told what's next.
  • Speed, real ownership of outcomes, and a high personal bar.
  • Strong collaboration across teams with a low-ego, no-drama approach.
  • Bonus: experience in startup or high-growth environments, or an active CPA.
  • Curiosity about AI-assisted tools and eagerness to adopt them (openness matters more than existing expertise).
The Details
  • Employment type:

    Contract, opportunity to convert to permanent if it's a good fit!
  • Location:

    On-site, Denver, CO
  • Compensation: $60-70/hour, based on experience (1099)
