Senior Accountant or Accounting Manager - Compensation - Greater Nashville

Senior Accountant - Compensation | Nashville Area
In Office - Hybrid
$80-100k , 10% Bonus

I'm working on a newly created Senior Accountant opportunity with a growing company in the Nashville area. This is a particularly important role within the accounting organization and offers the opportunity to join an extremely strong, experienced accounting leadership team.

This is NOT a payroll processing role. It is an accounting position focused on compensation-related calculations, accruals, journal entries and the monthly close.

The role will include:
* Own complex, recurring compensation calculations
* Calculate and record compensation-related accruals
* Prepare payroll-related journal entries and support monthly close
* Partner closely with Accounting and Payroll
* Take ownership of highly sensitive and confidential compensation information
* Become the internal go-to person for this area of the accounting function

We're looking for:
* 3-5 years of strong accounting experience
* Solid monthly close and journal entry experience
* Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy
* Someone highly reliable, consistent and organized
* Strong professional judgment and discretion
* Someone who enjoys ownership, routine and recurring processes

A few highlights:
* Newly created, highly valued role
* Excellent accounting leadership and mentorship
* Great work-life balance with no overtime expected
* 10% target bonus
* 3 weeks PTO paid holidays
* Strong benefits package
* Flexibility to work from home occasionally, with the potential for additional flexibility after training
* Open to an Accounting Manager title for the right candidate; this is an individual contributor role with no direct reports

If you're a strong accountant who enjoys ownership, accuracy and becoming the subject-matter expert for an important process, I'd love to connect confidentially.
