Job Description & How to Apply Below

Are you someone who enjoys accounting but wants to dig deeper into the “why” behind the numbers?

Do you find yourself asking questions when you see a variance instead of just recording it? If you like understanding the story behind financial results — not just processing transactions — this position is for you.

The Accounting Analyst role blends core accounting responsibilities with meaningful financial analysis. You’ll help ensure accuracy in the books while also partnering with operations and leadership to explain trends, identify risks, and uncover opportunities for improvement.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to move beyond transactional accounting and grow into a more analytical, business-facing role.

What You’ll Do Own the Numbers — and Understand Them
  • Support monthly close and ensure financial results are accurate and complete.
  • Prepare journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules.
  • Maintain clean, organized documentation that supports strong internal controls.
Analyze Variances & Tell the Story
  • Review monthly results against budget and prior periods.
  • Investigate and explain cost fluctuations and performance trends.
  • Partner with department leaders to understand operational drivers behind financial results.
  • Highlight risks, inconsistencies, and improvement opportunities.
Support Forecasting & Planning
  • Assist with budgeting and periodic forecasting.
  • Track performance against projections and provide insight into emerging trends.
  • Contribute to cash flow and financial planning discussions.
Improve How We Work
  • Identify ways to streamline reporting and accounting workflows.
  • Build and improve Excel-based reporting tools and models.
  • Support ERP optimization and technology initiatives.
  • Participate in automation and AI-driven process improvements.
What We’re Looking For
  • Strong foundation in accounting principles.
  • Natural curiosity — you don’t stop at “what happened.”
  • Comfortable communicating with both finance and non-finance team members.
  • Detail-oriented but able to step back and see the bigger picture.
  • Proficient in Excel and comfortable working with financial systems.
  • Ability to manage deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
What This Role Is Not
  • It’s not purely transactional.
  • It’s not just reconciling accounts in isolation.
  • It’s not a back-office role disconnected from operations.

This role sits at the intersection of accounting and business insight.

Who Thrives Here
  • Accountants who want more visibility into how the business runs.
  • Professionals coming from public accounting who want operational exposure.
  • Detail-oriented thinkers who enjoy solving financial puzzles.
  • Individuals who take ownership and want to grow into more strategic responsibilities over time.
