Regional Senior Accountant

Salary: $75,000 – $90,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Newly created Regional Senior Accountant position with a well-established, growth-oriented company

• Hands-on role with visibility across leadership, operations, and finance teams

• Opportunity to strengthen internal controls and design best-in-class accounting procedures

• Work directly with senior leaders on financial reporting, payroll, and operational initiatives

• Stable, long-standing company with a collaborative and team-focused environment

• Clear opportunities for career development into leadership as the Regional Senior Accountant role expands

• Excellent benefits and strong work-life balance within a supportive, people-first culture

Key Responsibilities for the Regional Senior Accountant:

• Oversee and improve accounting policies, procedures, and financial controls

• Assist in month-end close (5-day close), including journal entries, reconciliations, and reporting

• Manage fixed asset depreciation, roll forwards, lease amortization, and union benefits reporting

• Support payroll processing and serve as a backup across accounting and payroll functions

• Review and approve Accounts Payable check runs while ensuring accuracy and compliance

• Calculate and prepare monthly service and construction commissions, adjusting for bad debt in real time

• Perform weekly bank reconciliations and ensure accurate cash reporting

• Lead inventory reconciliation, coordinate physical counts, and establish new inventory processes

• Support external audits, tax filings, and compliance reporting requirements

• The Regional Senior Accountant will also collaborate cross-functionally with HR, operations, and leadership teams to ensure financial accuracy and efficiency

Qualifications for the Regional Senior Accountant:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required

• 3–6 years of progressive accounting experience; CPA preferred but not required

• Strong knowledge of GAAP, internal controls, and financial reporting standards

• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, and accounting/ERP systems

• Excellent organizational, communication, and analytical skills

• Detail-oriented, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

• The ideal Regional Senior Accountant will be a team player eager to contribute ideas, drive efficiency, and grow into a leadership capacity

This is an exciting opportunity for a hands-on Regional Senior Accountant ready to step into a visible, high-impact role within a stable and growing company that values accuracy, initiative, and professional growth.
