Accounting Assistant - $45-55k Salary + Tuition Reimbursement
Exciting opportunity for an accounting professional who is highly detailed / analytical and thirsty to learn to step into a fast paced company that is growing and quickly evolving. This is a GREAT role for someone who has always wanted to “go for it” and get their Bachelor’s degree…this company will support and encourage you through that process and give you opportunity to grow and take on new responsibilities in the years ahead.
- Take full responsibility for Accounts Payable as you own all aspects of AP / vendor relationship management
- Backup the Accounts Receivable function and also help out with GL accounting and Payroll as needed…this team is all cross trained and this is a highly collaborative environment
- Work with the Controller to automate AP processes in a company where “because that’s the way we’ve always done things” is unacceptable
Great opportunity to work for a company that is straightforward, honest, down to earth and genuine. Our client’s benefit package is excellent (under $350/month for exceptional family health insurance) and stellar PTO and retirement plans. Great opportunity to make an impact in a key role where you will be appreciated!
