• Review statutory financial statements and coordinate local compliance and filing requirements
• Partner with external auditors, tax advisors, and service providers to support annual audits, tax filings, and regulatory obligations
• Monitor cash activity and liquidity across international entities
• Prepare management reporting, variance analysis, and materials for leadership and board-level discussions
• Partner cross-functionally with Tax, Legal, Compliance, IT, FP&A, and Corporate Accounting on entity launches, restructurings, and wind-downs
• Identify opportunities to improve processes, strengthen controls, and enhance reporting efficiency through automation and better systems usage

What We’re Looking For

• 7 years of progressive accounting experience
• Prior public accounting experience required; Big 4 or large regional firm strongly preferred
• Experience in a multinational or international accounting environment
• Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP and/or IFRS
• Demonstrated experience with:

  • month-end close and financial reporting
• Advanced Excel skills and strong overall Microsoft Office proficiency
• Ability to work effectively across teams, time zones, and cultures
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to interact confidently with senior stakeholders
• High attention to detail, sound judgment, and a proactive, ownership-oriented mindset

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in financial services, private equity, asset management, or other complex global environments
• Exposure to ERP platforms such as Workday
• Familiarity with data visualization tools such as Tableau or Power BI
• Experience coordinating with international service providers, auditors, and tax advisors

Why This Role

• Opportunity to join a highly respected global firm with a strong culture and high-caliber team
• Broad exposure across international accounting, reporting, and operational finance
• Visibility to senior leadership and meaningful cross-functional partnership
• Strong long-term growth opportunity within a sophisticated global platform
• Competitive total compensation and benefits package
