Description

We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Assistant Controller to join our dynamic team. This role is ideal for professionals looking to broaden their experience in a fast-paced environment with exposure to all levels of senior management and ownership. It serves as a steppingstone to more senior leadership roles, offering visibility and influence across the organization.

For immediate consideration as Assistant Controller, candidates can reach out directly to Robert LePage at 508-205-2123.

Key Responsibilities:

+ Oversee the general ledger and ensure timely and accurate month-end and year-end close processes.

+ Manage day-to-day accounting operations including journal entries, account reconciliations, accruals, and intercompany transactions.

+ Lead the preparation and review of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

+ Supervise and mentor accounting staff, fostering professional development and team collaboration.

+ Coordinate with external auditors and support audit preparation and compliance efforts.

+ Maintain and improve internal controls and accounting policies.

+ Collaborate cross-functionally with FP& A, operations, and executive leadership to support strategic initiatives.

+ Assist in budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis.

+ Provide insights and recommendations to senior management based on financial data and trends.

Why This Role Stands Out:

+ Direct exposure to executive leadership and ownership, offering a unique opportunity to influence decision-making.

+ A broad scope of responsibilities that includes both tactical and strategic accounting functions.

+ Ideal for candidates seeking a pathway to Controller or Director-level roles.

+ Opportunity to shape and improve accounting processes in a growing organization.

Requirements • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or a related field is required.

• A minimum of 6 years of progressive accounting experience.

• Proficiency in handling month-end close processes and general ledger management.

• Strong knowledge of journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations.

• Advanced skills in Microsoft Excel for data analysis and reporting.

• Familiarity with payroll processes and compliance requirements.

• Experience with financial statement audits and annual inventory accounting.

• Prior management experience is preferred but not required; senior accountants looking to advance will be considered.
