- Handle daily cash receipts, bank deposits, and monthly cash reconciliations.
- Prepare schedules and supporting documentation for annual external audits.
- Serve as a resource for fellow accounting team members and provide backup support when needed.
- Maintain accounting procedures and assist with new employee orientation related to financial processes.
- Complete special projects and other accounting responsibilities as assigned.
What We're Looking For:
Someone who enjoys working with numbers just as much as they enjoy improving processes and supporting others.
Qualified candidates will have:
- Education in Accounting, Business, or Finance and at least two years of accounting experience, or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience.
- Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail.
- Analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
