Who You Are

• Experienced hands-on accounting leader or strong full-cycle bookkeeper comfortable managing a small team.

• Skilled multitasker who enjoys both the strategic and day-to-day aspects of running a business.

• Familiar with revenue recognition concepts (doesn't need to be technical GAAP expert but must understand timing and project-based income).

• Proficient in Sage Intacct (strongly preferred) or other ERP/accounting software.

• Collaborative communicator who values teamwork and clarity.

• Adaptable, resourceful, and capable of managing multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.

• Ideal backgrounds: small business controller, accounting manager at a service-based firm, or professional from a small public accounting practice looking to move into industry.

What's in It for You

• 401(k) with 4-5% company match

• 3 weeks PTO (potential for 4 after tenure)

• Flexible hybrid schedule (3 days in-office)

• Supportive, long-tenured accounting team

• Opportunity to learn from an experienced predecessor and make immediate impact

• Stable company with strong financial performance and a creative, people-first culture
