Senior Staff Accountant

We are seeking a highly analytical and technically strong Senior Accountant to support general accounting, month-end close, financial reporting, reconciliations, and accounting operations. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment where data is not always readily available—you will be expected to dig in, connect the dots, research discrepancies, and develop solutions. This position requires strong Excel expertise, solid accounting knowledge, and a proactive, problem-solving mindset.

• Prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, accruals, and supporting schedules

• Analyze general ledger activity and investigate variances, discrepancies, and unusual transactions

• Prepare financial statements, management reports, and ad hoc accounting analyses

• Maintain accurate accounting records in accordance with GAAP and company policies

• Partner cross-functionally to gather financial information and resolve accounting issues

• Support accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, prepaid expenses, and other general ledger activities

• Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting processes

• Identify opportunities to improve accounting processes, strengthen controls, and increase efficiency

• Support internal and external audits by preparing schedules and documentation

• 5–8+ years of progressive accounting experience

• Strong understanding of GAAP, general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and month-end close

• Advanced Excel expertise – modeling, data manipulation, pivot tables, lookups, and complex formulas

• Experience with ERP/accounting systems; SAP, Oracle, Net Suite, or similar preferred

• Naturally curious with strong analytical and problem-solving skills

• Self-starter who takes initiative without needing significant direction

• Exceptional attention to detail and commitment to accuracy

• Comfortable researching issues, working through ambiguity, and building processes from scratch

• High-growth environment with strong visibility to leadership

• Opportunity to work on complex and impactful accounting initiatives

• Hybrid flexibility in a downtown Cleveland location
