The ideal candidate brings proven experience in month‑end close, job costing, inventory accounting, and payroll posting, along with a solid working knowledge of financial processes in manufacturing, hospitality, catering, or other service‑oriented environments.

As a Senior Financial Analyst / Accountant, you will own full‑cycle accounting processes with minimal oversight, including reconciliations, financial reporting, and cross‑functional collaboration with Operations, Events, HR, and external vendors. This is a high‑impact opportunity for someone who thrives in fast‑paced settings, brings technical accounting expertise, and contributes to continuous process improvement and financial insight.

Key Responsibilities

Month‑End Close and Financial Reporting

  • Ensure GAAP‑compliant month‑end close by applying rigorous cost accounting and accrual accounting principles, including proper recognition of costs, revenues, and liabilities within the correct reporting period, supported by reconciliations and documented assumptions across multiple business units.
  • Prepare and analyze monthly balance sheet reconciliations, identifying, researching and resolving discrepancies in areas such as prepaid expenses, accruals, sales tax, and payroll.
  • Review general ledger activity to ensure all entries are properly coded, aligned with company policies, and accurately reflect business operations, including expenses related to food, beverage, and venue rentals.
  • Prepare month end journal entries and account reconciliations for various PL and BS accounts with accuracy and timeliness.
  • Prepare various monthly, quarterly and annual financial reporting.

Sales Tax and Compliance

  • Compile and prepare detailed reports to support monthly and quarterly sales tax filings by reconciling POS sales and invoicing against taxable sales by jurisdiction.
  • Maintain up‑to‑date tax rates and ensure the accuracy of compliance reporting across all regulatory obligations.
  • Revenues, Costing, Payroll, and Inventory

  • Follow revenue recognition principles under GAAP ACS606.
  • Conduct job costing analysis and reporting by allocating event‑specific costs across labor, rentals, ingredients, and other expense categories.
  • Post and analyze payroll entries, accurately allocating labor costs by locations and events and reconciling payroll data from Paycom.
  • Manage accounting aspects of inventory and cost reconciliation by collaborating with culinary and warehouse teams to validate physical counts against system reports.
  • System Management and Process Improvement

  • Support system implementations, upgrades, and migrations by assisting with data exports and mapping.
  • Identify process pain points and recommend SOP improvements to streamline financial workflows, including invoice approvals, vendor payments, and reporting accuracy.
  • Budgeting, Forecasting, and Treasury

  • Support budgeting and forecasting by building and maintaining tracking models for monthly expenses and comparing actuals to budgeted performance across departments.
  • Act as a backup approver for positive pay exceptions, ACH transactions, and wire transfers by validating approvals and ensuring payment accuracy in accordance with internal controls.
  • Qualifications and Experience

    Must Have

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (Required).
  • 6+ years of progressive accounting and / or financial analysis experience, with at least 3 years at a senior level.
  • Hands‑on expertise in month‑end close, reconciliations, and financial reporting.
  • Proven experience with job costing, inventory accounting, and payroll posting in a manufacturing, hospitality, catering, or other event‑driven environment.
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, large‑dataset analysis) and proficiency with Google Workspace.
  • Working knowledge of accounting and HR / payroll systems such as QuickBooks Online, Paycom, and Ottimate.
  • Highly organized, collaborative, and responsive, with the ability to operate with minimal oversight in a fast‑paced, service‑oriented environment.
  • Preferred

  • Experience in hospitality, CPG, and / or manufacturing companies
  • Experience with process improvements, system conversions, or implementation projects
  • Comfortable working in a dynamic, changing environment
