  • Prepare adjusting journal entries, reconcile key accounts, and support month-end closing as needed.
  • Work with client accounting systems (e.g., Quick Books, Sage, ERP platforms) to extract and validate financial data.
  • Maintain clear documentation and work papers that support conclusions and meet internal quality standards.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA or CPA-track preferred).
  • 1-3 years of experience in public accounting, consulting, or corporate finance.
  • Exposure to transaction advisory services, ESOPs, or financial due diligence is a strong plus.
  • Working knowledge of core financial statements, GAAP, and common business metrics.
  • Advanced Excel skills, including modeling, pivot tables, and scenario analysis.
  • Experience with accounting platforms such as Quick Books, Sage, or other ERPs.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills; capable of working directly with clients.
  • Self-starter with the ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines.
