Director of Accounting

We are seeking a highly skilled and proven leader to serve as Director of Accounting, Audit & Tax. This role holds primary ownership of the audit and financial reporting functions and oversight of tax coordination.

This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on accounting leader who thrives in complex environments, can independently research and apply GAAP, and is comfortable owning the full audit lifecycle from planning through issuance.

You will:

• Prepare all audit-related schedules and respond directly to auditor requests
• Independently research and implement accounting guidance from FASB and other standard setters
• Draft formal accounting memos and internal policies
• Produce complete GAAP financial statements, including required disclosures
• Serve as the primary technical accounting resource for the organization

• Strong ownership mindset and comfort working independently
• Ability to balance strategic leadership with hands-on execution
