Experienced CPA / Accountant - Profitable locally owned business - $80-90k Salary
Strong Omaha business that has demonstrated consistent year over year growth, is creating a new position for an experienced accounting professional to partner up closely with their CFO to take ownership for all aspects of General Ledger Accounting and Payroll for this successful company. Our client offers excellent work-life balance (VERY rarely ever over 40-45 hours per week), a calm, friendly atmosphere and the opportunity to work for a hands off CFO who is excited to hire an experienced professional that enjoys working autonomously.
- Lead the monthly close and reporting process as you take ownership for all bank reconciliations, journal entries, accruals and flux analysis
- Work closely with operations in this tangible goods business that sells an interesting, fun product as you work closely with inventory, supply chain and logistics
- Help in the review of Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and assist in the mentoring of more junior staff who reports directly to the CFO
- Take ownership for all Payroll processing and reporting in this company with less than 100 total employees
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced individual who is either a tenured Accountant / CPA or Controller who loves owning the most fun and complex accounting work but does not enjoy the stress of directly supervising a team. CPA is not required, but our client would be happy to support an individual who would like to keep their license active. Great opportunity to take back control of your life, and never miss a soccer game or dance recital again because you are stuck at the office!
For immediate consideration, contact Jeff Kovar, Director & Associate Partner, at 334-4800 *216 or send your resume to jkovar@hemphillsearch.com for a confidential discussion. Job Number 9067JK.
