  • Review and manage preparation of financial statements and internal reporting packages.

  • Perform balance sheet and P&L fluctuation analyses to deliver actionable business insights.

  • Manage treasury activities including cash flow forecasting, banking relationships, and liquidity optimization.

  • Partner with Supply Chain to improve inventory controls, reporting, and forecasting (cycle counts, inventory turns).

  • Develop and enhance accounting policies, procedures, and internal documentation.

  • Identify and implement process improvements and automation initiatives to support scale.

  • Manage, mentor, and develop staff accountants to build a high-performance team.

  • Support external audits and readiness for public company reporting requirements.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally to drive accountability, transparency, and operational efficiency.

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related field; CPA preferred.

  • 5+ years of accounting experience, including public accounting, with 2–3 years in a managerial role.

  • Deep knowledge of U.S. GAAP and technical accounting principles.

  • Hands-on experience with month-end close, reconciliations, journal entries, and financial statement preparation.

  • Experience with revenue recognition, inventory management, intercompany accounting, payroll, AP/AR, and fixed assets.

  • Treasury experience: cash flow forecasting, banking relationships, and liquidity management.

  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop staff accountants.

  • Experience driving process improvement and automation (ERP optimizations, automation tools).

  • Experience supporting external audits and public company reporting readiness.

  • Proficiency with ERP systems and strong Excel skills for analysis and reporting.

Nice to Have:

  • Background in eCommerce, healthcare, telemedicine, or inventory-based businesses strongly preferred.

  • Demonstrated experience managing complex accounting operations in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to translate financial data into clear business insights.

  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
