- Partner with business unit and corporate accounting teams to understand transactions and ensure appropriate accounting treatment, documentation, and financial statement presentation.
- Monitor changes in accounting standards and emerging guidance, helping assess their impact on the organization and assisting with implementation when necessary.
- Work closely with external auditors and internal accounting leadership to support technical accounting conclusions, resolve complex accounting questions, and facilitate a smooth year-end and reporting process.
- Partner with the Workday implementation team to ensure accounting processes, reporting, and system configuration appropriately support the organization's financial reporting objectives.
- Support the Controller and CFO on special projects, strategic initiatives, and other high-impact accounting matters as they arise.
We are searching for a technically strong accounting professional who enjoys being the person others turn to when an accounting question gets complicated. This is a role where you'll be given meaningful ownership while working closely with highly experienced accounting and finance leaders. You'll gain exposure to acquisitions, complex transactions, technical accounting research, financial reporting, and the broader business - giving you the opportunity to continue expanding both your technical expertise and leadership capabilities. For someone who wants to become exceptionally well-rounded in accounting and develop a deeper understanding of how accounting decisions connect to the business, this is a tremendous opportunity to build that foundation while making a meaningful impact within one of Nebraska's most respected organizations.
