We're partnering with a well‑established manufacturing company to find an Accounting Assistant who can step in quickly and support day‑to‑day accounting operations.

This is an immediate, open‑ended temporary opportunity supporting a lean local office while accounting functions continue to be consolidated at the corporate level.

This role is a strong fit for someone with solid transactional accounting experience who enjoys variety in their workday.

• Preparing and communicating bank deposits for corporate cash application
• Reviewing credit card and expense reports for policy compliance and accurate coding
• Preparing vendor credit applications and submitting banking information for setup
• Assisting with payroll support, HR file coordination, and other administrative tasks as needed

What We're Looking For:

• 3+ years of accounting experience with exposure to both accounts payable and accounts receivable
• Experience working in an ERP system, with JD Edwards preferred
• Intermediate to advanced Excel skills, including formulas, PivotTables, and VLOOKUPs
• Manufacturing accounting experience is a plus
• AA or BA in Accounting preferred, but not required

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Opportunity to make a meaningful impact during an operational transition
