What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Accountant position at Sadler Health Center?
Looking for an Accountant Who Knows the Close
Sadler Health Center is seeking an experienced Senior Accountant with strong, hands-on experience in month-end and year-end close, general ledger accounting, account reconciliations, and journal entries.

The ideal candidate will have direct corporate, nonprofit, healthcare, or other in-house accounting experience. Candidates whose experience is primarily tax preparation or external/general audit may not have the hands-on accounting background required for this position.
The Senior Accountant reports to the Controller and supports the Finance Department's accounting and financial reporting responsibilities.
