Contractor Role: ERP Implementation Accounting Support

This contractor role leads hands-on accounting support and systems enablement during a multi-year ERP implementation, preparing and reviewing critical schedules and deliverables across inventory, cost accounting, fixed assets, leases, collaborations, and general ledger. In addition to core close and reporting activities, the role partners cross-functionally with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, IT, Engineering, Facilities, and Finance to strengthen internal controls, drive standardization and automation, and ensure accurate, timely financial reporting.

This is a contract, on-site position based in our Rensselaer, NY facility. We anticipate the role running through end of November, 2027.

A day in the life may look like:

• Own preparation and review of monthly close deliverables across GL.
• Contribute to standard cost establishment and maintenance in Oracle Process Manufacturing (OPM), including materials, labor, and overhead; perform variance analysis and actionable commentary
• Analyze batch completions, production variances, inventory levels, and inventory status; partner with Manufacturing and Supply Chain to investigate and resolve issues
• Support CMO inventory accounting and end-to-end reconciliations across the external supply chain
• Assist with annual physical inventories and cycle counts for internal warehouses, CMOs, and 3PLs; track and resolve count differences and control gaps
• Prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and close checklists to meet deadlines with high quality
• Manage fixed asset activities: capitalization, disposals, depreciation, reconciliations, and fixed asset register integrity
• Analyze lease agreements to ensure accurate accounting under ASC 842; coordinate with Corporate Accounting on policy and complex arrangements
• Support collaboration accounting (e.g., deferred inventory, COGS, partner reporting) and align with contractual terms and policies
• Partner with Finance on budgets, forecasts, and manufacturing/operations variance analysis, linking operational drivers to P&L and balance sheet impacts
• Develop and maintain accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls that meet SOX requirements; document and remediate issues
• Serve as an accounting systems partner for Oracle OPM, Inventory, Order Management, and Financial modules; liaise with IT to troubleshoot issues and stabilize close
• Identify and implement automation and process improvements; translate business needs into functional builds, use cases, and testing documentation
• Implement end-to-end testing for ER improvements, upgrades, and new processes, including impact assessments, data validation, and UAT sign-offs
• Deliver executive-ready outputs: reconciliations, bridges, variance analyses, KPI dashboards, and issue logs with root-cause, risk, and remediation plans

This may be the right role for you if you:

• Thrive in a contractor capacity that supplements FTEs during major ERP change, bringing structure, urgency, and calm to fast-paced environments
• Drive automation of recurring close tasks, reconciliations, exception monitoring, and data quality checks to reduce cycle time and error rates
• Define data structures, hierarchies, and master data standards across OPM, Inventory, Order Management, and Financials to enable consistent reporting
• Standardize processes and cross-module controls for inventory, fixed assets, leases, and GL to improve accuracy and audit readiness
• Translate ambiguous requests into clear options with assumptions, effort, risks, and recommendations for decision-makers
• Communicate crisply with cross-functional partners and influence outcomes without direct authority

To be considered for this role, you must have:

BS/BA in Accounting, Finance, Information Systems, or related field

Typically 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, with strong inventory and cost accounting; manufacturing experience required, biotech/pharma preferred
