SENIOR ACCOUNTANT

ASCRIBE - ASIRUS - SOLIDChicago, IL
$85,000 - $105,000Hybrid

About The Position

We are seeking a Senior Accountant to join our Accounting & Finance team. This role is responsible for core accounting functions including month-end close, account reconciliations, journal entries, and financial reporting support. The ideal candidate has a strong command of fundamental accounting principles, a sharp eye for identifying discrepancies, and the initiative to investigate and resolve issues independently. We are looking for someone who is self-directed, communicates proactively, and delivers reliable, accurate work without close supervision. Opportunities exist to contribute to Finance initiatives and expand exposure past core accounting.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting, or equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
  • 3–5+ years of progressive accounting experience
  • Strong understanding of US GAAP and core accounting concepts (accruals, revenue/expense recognition, reconciliations)
  • Demonstrated ability to identify issues, perform root-cause analysis, and drive them to resolution
  • Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, and formula-based analysis)
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain accounting matters clearly to non-accounting stakeholders
  • Proven ability to work effectively in a hybrid/remote environment: self-motivated, organized, responsive, and accountable for deadlines

Nice To Haves

  • CPA license (or actively pursuing)
  • Experience with NetSuite or similar ERP systems
  • Experience supporting external audits
  • Experience in a multi-entity or multi-subsidiary environment

Responsibilities

  • Prepare and post journal entries, including accruals, prepaids, and reclassifications, with complete and well-organized supporting documentation
  • Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations and resolve reconciling items in a timely manner
  • Support the month-end and year-end close process, ensuring deadlines are met and results are accurate
  • Analyze general ledger activity and flux/variance results; investigate unexpected balances or trends and clearly communicate findings
  • Identify discrepancies, errors, or process gaps proactively — and see them through to resolution rather than simply reporting them
  • Assist with the preparation of internal management reporting packages and supporting schedules
  • Support external audit and tax requests by preparing schedules and gathering documentation
  • Maintain and improve accounting processes, documentation, and internal controls
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with AR, AP, and operations teams to resolve transaction-level questions
  • Assist with special projects, system improvements, and ad hoc analysis

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Savings Account (FSA)
  • Employer 401(k) match
  • $10,000 in employer-sponsored life insurance
  • Flexible time-off policy with paid company holidays
  • Paid parental leave (if applicable)
