  • Oracle Fusion experience required
  • Advanced Excel skills
  • Experience working with large data sets and financial integrations
  • Strong problem‑solving and analytical skills
  • Experience collaborating with offshore or shared services teams
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with cloud‑based general ledger systems
  • Experience working with third‑party MGA/TPA data
  • Familiarity with GAAP, IFRS, or international accounting standards
  • Experience supporting audit requests (internal and external)
  • Fully remote
  • Hybrid option available in Madison, WI (2–3 days onsite optional)
  • Regular coordination with offshore teams in Manila (morning availability before 11 AM local time required when collaborating live)
  • Cross‑functional collaboration with IT and accounting teams across multiple time zones
What We’re Looking For
  • A detail‑oriented, technically strong accounting professional
  • Someone comfortable in a systems‑heavy, project‑driven environment
