Senior Corporate Accountant
Location: Minnetonka, MN | Hybrid
Compensation: $95,000–$135,000 bonus (commensurate with experience)
About The Company
A fast-growing, founder-led consumer products manufacturer is building out its internal accounting capabilities to support continued expansion. With many accounting tasks currently handled through outsourced/shared services, the company is ready to bring those functions in-house and create a more sophisticated financial foundation.
This role is ideal for a high-performing Senior Accountant or Corporate Accountant who is ready for greater ownership, visibility, and career growth.
The Opportunity
As the Senior Corporate Accountant, you will take a lead role in day-to-day accounting operations, monthly close activities, and financial reporting. You’ll help establish new processes, strengthen internal controls, and support the broader transition from outsourced accounting to a fully internal function.
You’ll work directly with the Controller/CEO and gain exposure to all areas of the business — making this an exceptional growth opportunity for someone who wants to advance into a future Controller role.
