Accounting Specialist - Wear Jeans, Shorts or Jean shorts every day! - HEMPHILL EXCLUSIVE
Refreshing opportunity to join a fun, laid back construction company that believes in hiring great people and providing them with a positive, comfortable environment to work. Many employees of this company enjoy their casual dress (even a ball cap is OK!), the ability to watch sports on TV while working during the day, and an environment where teammates enjoy an ice-cold beer on Friday (or Thursday if needed) afternoon to celebrate the progress and wins of the week.
This is a newly created position opening up due to the company’s exciting growth and expansion into new markets. This role will work closely with the Controller and Accounts Payable Manager to take ownership for a variety of accounting duties including Payables, Invoicing / Billing, New Vendor Set up and Maintenance and other duties as needed. No two days will be the same in this fast paced environment and this is a great role for someone looking for growth and learning or someone looking for great work/life balance and a happy, positive office vibe.
This company takes pride in paying fair wages (they frequently ask Hemphill for current market rates in the event that they need to provide off-schedule pay increases) and the multiple individuals we have placed into this company all are extremely happy and having fun. This is a fun client for us to visit to see the smiling faces of the staff in their office. Highly flexible schedule is offered and the opportunity to work with fantastic mentors and leadership who truly cares.
To learn more details about this opportunity, call Jeff Kovar at (402)334-4800 *216 for a confidential conversation or send your resume to jkovar@hemphillsearch.com. Job Number 9078JK.
