Position Description
Since 2012, RWC Americas’ revenues have tripled and now make up over 70% of the company’s worldwide consolidated revenues; it expects to more than double those revenues through continued organic and acquisition means in the coming years.

The Senior Accountant will report to the Operations Accounting Manager and work closely with the Operations Controller. They will interface with members across many functional areas, primarily focused on supporting the dynamic needs of our Operations team throughout the United States. They will be responsible for various accounting areas supporting all long-lived assets and lease liabilities accounting activities, including performing monthly close processes, internal and external financial reporting, internal control compliance, and budgeting/forecasting/theoretical costing. The Senior Accountant will also serve as the administrator for the U.S. new capital orders platform and be instrumental in developing and implementing improved processes to achieve more accurate and timely financial reporting that supports the overall business, providing a foundation for escalated growth and continued acquisitions.
