Job Overview:
Join a dynamic NYC professional services firm as a Senior Accountant, where you will serve as a pillar of their finance operations. Reporting directly to the Controller, you will move beyond simple data entry to own key components of the month‑end close, revenue recognition, and strategic financial analysis. This is a hands‑on leadership‑track role for an ambitious accountant who thrives in a fast‑paced environment and wants to see the direct impact of their work on a scaling organization.
Accounting
- Own the Close: Lead the monthly, quarterly, and year‑end close processes, including complex accruals, intercompany reconciliations, and GL maintenance.
- Financial Reporting: Prepare GAAP‑compliant management reporting packages and provide the "why" behind the numbers through rigorous variance analysis against budgets and forecasts.
- Audit & Compliance: Act as the primary liaison for external auditors and tax advisors, ensuring all schedules and statutory filings are accurate and timely.
- Revenue & Billing: Partner with the business to support revenue recognition and oversee the invoicing lifecycle to optimize DSO and cash flow.
- Payroll & Expenses: Collaborate with HR to reconcile payroll activities (ADP) and ensure internal controls over purchasing and disbursements remain ironclad.
- Process Architecture: Identify and implement opportunities to automate and standardize accounting workflows to support the firm’s continued growth.
- Experience: 5+ years of progressive accounting experience. A background in Big 4 or national public accounting is highly preferred.
- Technical
Skills:
Strong foundation in U.S. GAAP and proficiency in ERP systems (Net Suite, Sage Intacct, Dynamics, or similar). - Excel Mastery: You should be a power user capable of utilizing pivot tables, lookups, and basic modeling to resolve complex accounting issues.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance required; CPA (or progress toward it) is a significant plus.
