We are seeking a highly reliable, detail-oriented Accounting Manager to serve as the primary accounting owner across the organization as we bring our accounting function in-house.

This is first and foremost an accounting role. The Accounting Manager will own the day-to-day accounting function, financial close, reconciliations, and financial reporting across our businesses.
