This is a "player-coach" role designed for someone who bridges the gap between complex accounting and innovative technology. You will be the primary driver of our AI-driven process improvements while ensuring the day-to-day global close remains on track. If you have a project management mindset and a "no task too small, no challenge too big" attitude, you will thrive here.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
Corporate Accounting & Global Close Support
- Global Close Coordination: Assist in managing the end-to-end global accounting close process. You will coordinate with internal teams and our offshore managed services team to ensure all deadlines are met with precision.
- Cross-Functional Partnership: Collaborate daily with stakeholders in Tax, FP&A, Finance Systems, Finance Operations and Technical Accounting to ensure day-to-day work is streamlined and enterprise-wide efficiency is maximized.
- Internal Controls & Compliance: Assist in building and maintaining robust internal control environments to ensure that automated workflows remain compliant and operationally efficient.
AI Workflow Maintenance & Process Optimization
- Maintain AI Workflows: Take ownership of existing AI and automation workstreams in Corporate Accounting, ensuring the integrity and performance of automated processes in Investments, AP Accruals, Prepaids, Fixed Assets, and Leases etc.
- Project Follow-up: Act as the lead coordinator for transformation initiatives; manage project milestones, track progress, and ensure that all AI-driven enhancements are functioning as intended.
- Operational Innovation: Serve as the front line for day-to-day operations to identify manual bottlenecks; assist in the design and deployment of AI-assisted solutions to eliminate repetitive tasks.
- Efficiency Scoping: Continuously monitor and propose refinements to AI use cases, such as streamlining Investment valuation and reconciliation or enhancing AP Accrual estimations, to keep the department at the technological forefront.
Audit & Stakeholder Support
- Audit Coordination: Support the coordination of internal and external audits. You will assist in the collection, organization, and initial review of PBC requests to ensure a smooth audit lifecycle.
- Documentation & Polish: Help refine and polish audit responses and process documentation. You will assist in explaining AI-enhanced workflows to auditors, ensuring that automated evidence is clear, professional, and meets all regulatory standards.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING:
- Experience: 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally blending a Big Four foundation with in-house corporate accounting.
- Credentials: CPA is required. A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance is required; an advanced degree is a plus.
- Hands-on Depth: You are a true "doer" who leads by example. You must have direct experience in corporate accounting operations and be comfortable navigating complex data sets and ERP systems independently.
- Project Management & Leadership: You possess a formal or highly developed PM mindset. You have a proven track record of overseeing project lifecycles, managing timelines, unblocking technical barriers, and resourcefully sourcing tools. You can work collaboratively across a broad range of business functions and have a demonstrated ability to engage effectively with senior management.
- Systems & AI Fluency: Proficiency with large enterprise-level ERP systems (e.g., Oracle, NetSuite, or SAP) and advanced Excel skills are essential. You have experience with data visualization tools and, crucially - actively use AI tools in your daily workflow to drive efficiency.
- Problem-Solving DNA: You don't just identify "red flags" - you proactively detect root causes and propose actionable, scalable solutions.
