Description



Senior Accountant (SOX & Controls Focus) → Growth Track to Leadership


Location: Columbia, MD (Hybrid)
Compensation: Up to $120K + Bonus



Why This Role Stands Out


Looking for more than just another accounting job?


This is a career-building opportunity with a clear path to leadership. Our Controller started in this exact seat—and has since been promoted three times. If you’re hungry, driven, and want exposure that accelerates your career, this is the kind of platform that can get you there.



What You’ll Do


This role sits at the intersection of accounting, SOX compliance, and internal controls—giving you visibility across the business and direct interaction with leadership.



  • Lead and support SOX compliance and internal controls frameworks

  • Partner cross-functionally to design, test, and improve internal controls

  • Assist with month-end close and financial reporting

  • Drive process improvements, especially within a manufacturing environment

  • Collaborate with auditors and support internal/external audit activities

  • Contribute to system enhancements (SAP S/4HANA is a plus)



What We’re Looking For


We want someone who’s not just technically strong—but motivated to grow.



  • 3–6+ years of accounting experience

  • Strong background in SOX, internal controls, or audit

  • Experience in manufacturing or inventory-heavy environments strongly preferred

  • Exposure to ERP systems (SAP S/4HANA a plus)

  • Evidence of career progression or taking on increasing responsibility

  • A proactive, ownership mindset with a desire to move up



Growth & Culture



  • Clear upward mobility—the team promotes from within

  • High visibility with leadership

  • A manager who actively mentors and develops talent

  • Collaborative, forward-thinking accounting team

  • Hybrid schedule with flexibility



Why You Should Apply


If you’re early-to-mid career, have solid SOX / controls exposure, and are ready to grow, this is the type of role that can fast-track your career.
