This role reports to the Corporate Controller and will have one direct report.

The Opportunity

• Maintain the annual and quarterly reporting timetable and track progress against all filing milestones
• Manage accounting and reporting for leases, asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation, and EPS

• Ensure compliance with internal controls across all assigned reporting areas

What They're Looking For

• CPA required 3+ years of direct SEC reporting experience (10-K, 10-Q, footnotes, MD&A)
• 5 to 10 years of progressive accounting experience overall
• Combination of public accounting and private industry experience is the ideal profile — straight public or straight industry will also be considered
• Deep technical GAAP knowledge with the ability to research and document complex accounting matters independently
• Experience in consumer retail or a similarly complex, multi-unit environment is a strong plus
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting required

Why This Role

Opportunity to help shape the reporting function at a growing publicly traded company. Stable, well-capitalized platform with a strong national footprint and continued growth momentum.
