Job description

Technical Accounting Manager

Salary : $120,000 - $150,000 + bonus

Why This Opportunity Stands Out :

  • Newly created Technical Accounting Manager position at a high-growth, publicly traded company
  • Hands-on role with direct visibility to senior leadership, including the CFO and Controller
  • Opportunity to own technical accounting research and policy development in a complex, evolving environment
  • Key contributor to SEC reporting, acquisitions, and implementation of new accounting standards
  • Collaborative, people-first culture with strong work-life balance and career development opportunities
  • Hybrid schedule with unique remote flexibility during winter months
  • Competitive compensation, excellent benefits, and a strong 401(k) match

Key Responsibilities for the Technical Accounting Manager :

  • Research, document, and implement accounting treatment for complex transactions under US GAAP
  • Draft technical accounting memos and provide guidance to finance and operations teams
  • Monitor and assess the impact of new and emerging accounting standards (FASB, SEC)
  • Support preparation and review of SEC filings, including 10-Q, 10-K, and earnings releases
  • Assist in M&A due diligence, purchase accounting, and integration of acquisitions
  • Maintain and enhance internal controls and ensure SOX 404 compliance
  • Partner cross-functionally with FP&A, Tax, Treasury, and Legal on accounting and reporting issues
  • Support quarterly reviews and annual audits, serving as a key contact for external auditors
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives in reporting processes, systems, and controls
  • Qualifications for the Technical Accounting Manager :

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Accounting required
  • CPA required
  • 5-7 years of progressive accounting experience (Big 4 or public accounting / public company mix preferred)
  • Strong technical knowledge of US GAAP, SEC reporting requirements, and internal controls
  • Proven ability to draft and present clear, well-supported technical accounting positions
  • Experience with SOX 404 compliance and implementation of new standards
  • Familiarity with Workiva, JD Edwards, or OneStream a plus
  • Strong analytical, communication, and project management skills
  • Proactive, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • This is an exciting opportunity for a hands-on Technical Accounting Manager to step into a highly visible, newly created role with a growing public company that values technical expertise, collaboration, and career growth.
