Monitor compliance-related documentation such as W-9s, sales and use tax records, and vendor files
Partner with internal stakeholders to resolve transactional issues and gather necessary financial support
Identify opportunities to streamline processes and improve efficiency within accounting workflows
What We're Looking For
Demonstrated experience in full-cycle accounting, including AP, AR, reconciliations, and close
Strong knowledge of general ledger accounting and balance sheet reconciliations
Experience working with ERP or accounting systems
Solid Excel skills for reconciliations and reporting
High attention to detail with strong organizational habits

Clear communicator who works well across departments
Why Join This Team
Stable, privately owned manufacturing company with steady growth
