Senior Accountant

Our client, a growing business in manufacting, is adding a Senior Accountant with a focus on inventory. You’ll work directly with the CFO to answer critical questions: Are inventory balances reliable? Are reserves supported? Where can stronger controls and better reporting make a difference?

This role offers hands-on accounting ownership and the opportunity to turn your recommendations into established business practices.

Your Impact

You’ll connect activity across purchasing, supply chain, and operations to the financial statements. That includes explaining changes in inventory costs, resolving differences between supporting records and the general ledger, and preparing the entries and analysis needed for an accurate close.

Beyond the recurring work, you’ll evaluate how the company accounts for inventory, document clear standards, and strengthen valuation and reserve processes. You’ll also help improve audit readiness and find practical ways to reduce manual reporting.

Who Would Do Well Here?

An accountant who enjoys investigating issues, making sound technical judgments, and following through on improvements. You should be comfortable working independently and discussing your findings with both operational partners and senior leadership.

The preferred background includes:

• An Accounting degree and roughly 3–6+ years of relevant experience.
• A strong foundation in US GAAP and accounting controls.
• Public accounting experience, ideally with exposure to inventory-heavy clients.
• A CPA or progress toward certification.
• Familiarity with inventory, product costs, or businesses that manufacture or distribute physical goods.
• Strong Excel skills; Business Central or Power BI experience would be helpful.

For someone coming from audit, this is an opportunity to apply your technical foundation inside a business and take ownership of the improvements you identify. For a corporate accountant, it offers broader influence, CFO access, and room to build as the company grows.
