Key Responsibilities

• Drive accounting efficiency initiatives: identify recurring/manual close and accounting workflows (JEs, reconciliations, roll-forwards, flux) and redesign them for speed, quality, and auditability.
• Build and implement automation using Excel/SQL (and Python where appropriate) and approved tooling to reduce cycle time and error rates (e.g., automated tie-outs, exception reporting, standardized JE support packages).
• Develop controlled AI/LLM-enabled workflows to accelerate accounting and close deliverables (e.g., drafting flux explanations, summarizing exceptions) with documented controls, traceability, and human-in-the-loop review.
• Create and maintain accounting-focused financial reporting that ties to the GL and agreed sources of truth (close dashboards, variance/flux reporting, account trend reporting).
• Mine and reconcile data across systems; improve data quality through root-cause analysis and upstream fixes with process owners.
• Build and maintain repeatable, versioned analysis assets (queries, datasets, templates/models) with documentation and clear data lineage.
• Support the Costpoint D365 transition by defining reporting requirements, validating outputs, and improving post-migration close/reporting workflows.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, business, or another highly analytical/technical field.
• 2+ years of experience in accounting, financial reporting/close, controllership operations, or accounting-adjacent analytics/automation.

• Advanced Excel and strong SQL; Python preferred (or demonstrated scripting/automation capability).
• Experience building repeatable, well-documented analyses and/or automated reporting from large datasets.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain results, assumptions, and controls to both finance and non-finance partners.
• Strong judgment handling sensitive data with an audit-ready documentation mindset including controls, evidence, and clear data lineage.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Costpoint and/or D365 Finance (reporting, extraction, close processes, migration support).
• Demonstrated ability to automate or streamline recurring work (scripts, queries, templates, workflow automation, or repeatable reporting).
• CPA, MBA, or advanced degree in finance/accounting/analytics (or equivalent practical experience).
• Deep knowledge of FP&A processes.
