Junior Staff Accountant

Junior Accountant

Hybrid | Fairfield County, CT

Ready to level up your accounting career?

Our client is looking for a sharp, detail-driven Junior Accountant who wants more than just data entry — someone who wants real exposure to the mechanics of how a business runs financially.

This is a hands-on role where you’ll touch journal entries, cost allocations, general ledger activity, and month-end close — not just one piece of the puzzle.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Preparing and posting journal entries (including freight, duty, postage & operational allocations)

• Owning general ledger reconciliations

• Supporting month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close

• Partnering cross-functionally to ensure financial accuracy

• Helping improve processes and maintain clean financials

You’ll gain exposure to real financial operations while working alongside a collaborative, high-performing team.

What We’re Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

• 6 months to 1 year of accounting experience (internships count!)

• Strong Excel skills (Pivot Tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP)

• Detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and organized

• ERP experience a plus (NetSuite is a bonus!)

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Hybrid flexibility

• Growth opportunity within a stable, expanding organization

• Real ownership and visibility — not just transactional work

• A chance to build foundational experience that sets you up for Staff Accountant growth

If you're early in your accounting career and want to work somewhere that will actually invest in your development — this is it.
