Accounting Standards: Assist in the evaluation and implementation of new accounting standards, coordinating with various departments to operationalize changes. Audit Liaison: Serve as a primary point of contact for external auditors during quarterly reviews and annual audits regarding technical positions and reporting workflows. Policy Maintenance: Help maintain and update the company’s accounting policies to ensure they remain aligned with current GAAP and regulatory trends.

Active CPA license is required. Technical Proficiency: Strong foundational knowledge of US GAAP and SEC reporting standards. Experience with SEC reporting software (e.g., Workiva, Toppan Merrill) and ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle).
