I’m excited to be partnering with one of my best PE-backed clients to add a newly created Senior Accountant to their team!
This role will report directly to the Controller (who I had the opportunity to place) and is a great opportunity for someone who wants to grow, gain exposure to the business, and have a seat at the table.
This is a highly visible role where you’ll work closely with operations and leadership, not just sit behind the scenes.
