Senior Accountant


Salary: $95,000–$105,000


Location: Laytonsville, MD


Office Situation: Hybrid


Why This Opportunity Stands Out


Are you ready to transition from public accounting into an industry role where you'll have visibility, influence, and room to grow?


Our client is a well-established, financially strong organization experiencing continued growth. They're seeking a Senior Accountant to become the right hand to the Assistant Controller and play a key role in strengthening the accounting function.


Why you'll love this opportunity:



  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and a clear path toward Accounting Manager

  • Hands-on involvement with acquisition accounting, integrations, and process improvements

  • Opportunity to make a measurable impact, not just maintain the status quo

  • Stable, growing company with a collaborative culture, long-tenured employees, and a leadership team that values autonomy

  • Hybrid work environment and bonus eligibility

  • Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with company match, generous PTO, tuition reimbursement, life and disability insurance, FSA/HSA options, Employee Assistance Program, and ongoing leadership development


Key Responsibilities



  • Own key areas of the month-end close process

  • Prepare journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reporting packages

  • Perform balance sheet reconciliations and maintain audit-ready schedules

  • Support acquisition accounting and integration activities

  • Assist with external audits and year-end reporting

  • Drive process improvements and strengthen documentation

  • Partner with finance and operational leaders on special projects and reporting initiatives


Qualifications



  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting

  • 3–5 years of progressive accounting experience

  • Public accounting experience (Big Four not required)

  • Experience with month-end close

  • Strong understanding of U.S. GAAP

  • Audit support experience

  • Preferred:

    • CPA or active CPA candidate

    • Combination of public accounting and industry experience

    • Acquisition accounting experience

    • JD Edwards or similar ERP

    • Interest in leveraging AI tools to improve accounting processes




If you're looking for a Senior Accountant opportunity where you can expand your technical skills, gain acquisition exposure, and position yourself for future leadership, we'd love to speak with you.
