About The Position

SPS Companies, Inc. / Steel and Pipe Supply is one of the nation's leading steel companies. We buy, sell, and process steel in huge volumes, and we run our business with cutting-edge tools and technology. In the Corporate Accounting Department, we do the dirty work not many others consider. We get into the weeds with every accounting transaction to ensure thoroughness and accuracy. Not only does the Company need and expect that from us – even more, this is how we roll. We take great pride in the precise and timely excellence with which we deliver our work. The work requires diligence and speed, and expectations are very high. At the same time, though, we thoroughly enjoy the work, we enjoy each other, and we have a lot of fun together while we are at work. If you are a thorough transactional accounting expert who thrives when the stakes are high, this might be the perfect opportunity for you.
