Sr. Accountant – Frisco, TX
What You'll Do:
You'll be the financial backbone for up to five distribution centers, owning month-end close, journal entries, balance sheet reconciliations, and P&L reporting. This isn't a back-office number-crunching role — you'll partner directly with distribution center leadership to explain what the numbers mean, spot trends before they become problems, and help drive smarter decisions on cost, controls, and efficiency. If you're a detail-oriented accountant who's just as comfortable in a spreadsheet as you are in a room with operations leaders, this role is built for you.
In This Role, You'll:
- Prepare month-end, quarter-end, and year-end financial statements for up to 5 distribution centers
- Prepare and enter journal entries, ensuring accurate coding of revenue, expenses, and balance sheet items across multiple lines of business and locations
- Perform inventory reconciliations and adjustment analysis, and assist with physical inventory counts as needed
- Research and reconcile unvouchered subledger reports, price discrepancies, and intercompany transactions
- Reconcile balance sheet accounts monthly, analyzing balances for accuracy and providing supporting documentation
- Lead weekly financial review meetings with distribution center management, delivering insights on performance, costs, and revenue opportunities
- Support the annual budget process with detailed account analytics, and analyze budget-to-actual variances throughout the year
- Ensure adherence to GAAP standards, coordinate with external auditors, and lead PBC documentation gathering during annual audits
What You'll Bring:
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
- 3 to 5 years of experience in general ledger accounting and financial statement preparation
- CPA or CMA preferred, not required
- Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and hands-on experience with ERP/accounting software
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to manage multiple, competing priorities with minimal supervision
- A self-starter mindset — comfortable owning projects, navigating ambiguity, and driving process improvements
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of strong customer service
The Schedule & Setting:
- Full-time, Monday – Friday, based on-site at the Frisco, TX headquarters
- Standard core business hours, with flexibility needed around month-end and quarter-end close
- Office environment with regular collaboration with distribution center leadership across multiple locations
- Some travel to distribution centers may be required to support physical inventory counts or audits
Pay & Benefits:
- Pay Range (Base Pay): Commensurate with experience
- Weekly pay (every Friday)
- Other Compensation: May include shift differentials, overtime pay, bonuses, or other incentive pay as applicable to the position and location.
- Health and Wellness: Medical, Dental, Vision, Disability, Health and Dependent Care Reimbursement Accounts (FSA), Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Voluntary Insurance (Accident, Critical Illness, Hospital Indemnity, Legal, Life, and AD&D); Pet Insurance
