Senior Accounting Manager

Salary: $140,000 – $160,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• High‑visibility Senior Accounting Manager role supporting US Markets technical accounting, complex transactions, and strategic initiatives

• Reports to a fantastic Director who reports to the US Controller — strong leadership, highly regarded, and great to work with

• Not a traditional close‑heavy role — deep business partnership, exposure to Corporate Development, and involvement in acquisitions

• Significant long‑term growth opportunity within a global, publicly traded data & analytics leader

• Exceptional culture

• Only 2 days in-office weekly

• Excellent benefits: robust Day‑1 medical/dental/vision, 401(k) match, ESPP with 15% discount, FTO (flexible time off), and on-site gym

• Opportunity to build technical accounting mastery while influencing decisions across the business

Key Responsibilities for the Senior Accounting Manager:

• Partner with business stakeholders to understand new initiatives and evaluate accounting implications under U.S. GAAP

• Prepare technical accounting memos for new, complex, or unusual transactions, ensuring decision-makers understand implications in advance

• Monitor minority investments for cash flow, operational risk, and impairment indicators; review related entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules

• Support statutory audit processes for foreign entities acquired by the US Markets segment, coordinating with auditors and external bookkeepers

• Collaborate with Corporate Accounting on all M&A activity — coordinate acquisition/divestiture entries, review supporting schedules, and support QofE, audits, and diligence

• Assess the impact of new accounting standards and partner with operational accounting teams to implement new guidance, policies, and controls

• Oversee technical accounting areas during month-end close to ensure accurate and timely reporting

• Identify opportunities to streamline technical processes through automation and technology-driven solutions

• Communicate complex accounting matters clearly to stakeholders across Finance, Corporate Development, FP&A, and business leadership

• Serve as a trusted advisor for technical questions, policy interpretation, and accounting implications of strategic business decisions

Qualifications for the Senior Accounting Manager:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required; CPA required

• 6–7+ years of progressive accounting experience (Big 4 or public accounting background strongly preferred)

• Strong understanding of U.S. GAAP, technical accounting topics, and SEC reporting processes

• Experience supporting month-end close and earnings cycles for public companies

This is an exciting opportunity for a Senior Accounting Manager seeking meaningful technical ownership, executive exposure, and the chance to contribute to strategic business decisions within a global, high-growth organization.
