  • · Communicate with employees, vendors, the third party accounting team, auditors, external tax professionals, and Finance colleagues to obtain information and resolve routine questions.

  • · Maintain accurate, complete records and protect confidential financial and employee information.


What you’ll bring

  • · 0–5 years of practical accounting experience.

  • · An accounting degree is preferred.

  • · Strong Excel skills and the ability to review and organize financial information accurately.

  • · Sound judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to follow procedures and escalate issues appropriately.

  • · Strong communication and people skills with a service-oriented approach.
