Job Description

Senior Accountant

A high-impact opportunity for a CPA or public accounting professional ready to step into a strategic finance role.

About the Opportunity

Banyan Search is partnering with a well-established, growth-oriented company to find a sharp Senior Accountant ready to make an impact. This isn’t just a close-the-books role — it’s a seat at the table where your analysis and insights will directly inform leadership decisions.

With a hybrid schedule (just two days in office per week), you’ll enjoy the flexibility of remote work without sacrificing the collaboration and visibility that come with being part of a dynamic finance team. If you’re a CPA, a current or former public accounting professional, or a corporate accountant with strong GAAP instincts and a desire to stretch into budgeting and strategic analysis — this is your opportunity.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the monthly close process, including journal entries, accruals, and reconciliations
  • Drive corporate expense budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
  • Deliver meaningful financial insights to senior leadership — not just numbers, but the story behind them
  • Prepare ad hoc financial analysis and reporting in support of key business decisions
  • Partner cross-functionally with business stakeholders on planning and reporting initiatives
  • Champion process improvements that increase accuracy, efficiency, and close cycle speed
  • Support budgeting and planning system maintenance and enhancements
  • Ensure adherence to internal controls and GAAP standards

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
  • 3+ years of accounting experience; public accounting background strongly preferred
  • CPA license (or active candidate) highly valued
  • Advanced Excel skills and proficiency with ERP/accounting systems
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to communicate financial results clearly
  • Experience with budgeting or FP&A tools is a plus

Candidate must be authorized to work in the US without current or future sponsorship requirements.
