Newton, MA Full Time
POSTED ON 10/8/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/5/2026

Join a fast-growing consumer packaged goods (CPG) brand that's breaking into major big-box retail and scaling quickly. As Senior Financial Reporting Accountant, you'll wear two hats, corporate accounting and FP&A, on a lean finance team where your work directly shapes how the business grows. This is a visible role with real impact in a fast paced environment.


Responsibilities:

  • Own the month-end close: journal entries, reconciliations, and monthly financial statements
  • Take charge of key balance sheet accounts: cash, prepaids, ROU assets, long-term payables, and accruals
  • Drive forecasting, budgeting, and budget-vs-actual variance analysis
  • Build Excel models and Power BI dashboards that give leadership real-time insight
  • Be the go-to contact for external auditors and own US GAAP-compliant reporting
  • Streamline processes and help optimize the ERP as the finance function scales


Qualifications:

  • 4–6 years of progressive accounting experience; public accounting or financial reporting a plus
  • CPG industry experience
  • Hands-on FP&A exposure: forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis
  • Major ERP (Oracle, SAP, NetSuite, Epicor, etc.)
  • PowerBI / Advanced Excel
  • Bachelor's in Accounting, Finance, or related
