Role and Responsibilities

The Accounting Manager is the on-site owner of Atomic-6’s accounting operations and monthly financial reporting. The role directs an outplant bookkeeper, processes bi-weekly payroll through a PEO, produces the monthly financial package, and extracts and reconciles financial data from the MRP system. There are no direct reports at hire. Hours may start below a full-time schedule and are expected to increase to full-time as order volume and plant activity grow.

Primary duties include:

· Direct the outplant bookkeeper: close calendar, workpaper standards, account reconciliations, accruals, and correction of coding errors.

· Own the monthly close and deliver a complete financial package to the COO (income statement, balance sheet, cash, and variance commentary) using Excel and PowerPoint.

· Run and reconcile financial reports from the MRP system, including job cost, work-in-process, inventory, and order-to-cash or cost-to-complete views as used by operations.

· Process bi-weekly payroll through the company PEO: collect and validate time, enter approved changes, review the pre-process register, and confirm transmission. Payroll changes require documented approval before entry.

· Coordinate with the outplant CPA on tax filings, year-end workpapers, and technical accounting questions.

· Maintain the chart of accounts, close checklist, and filing of bank, PEO, MRP, and CPA records in the company electronic system.

· Support accounts payable and receivable discipline with the bookkeeper so vendor and customer balances stay current.

· Flag out-of-tolerance conditions in cash, inventory, job cost, or payroll and recommend corrective action to the COO.

· Travel to the Kennesaw, Georgia plant as required for close support, inventory questions, and operations reviews.

· Protect company financial data and export-controlled information in accordance with company policy.
