Senior Accountant
Location: Atlanta, GA (Hybrid)
Type: Direct Hire
Environment: High-Growth, Fortune 500 Corporate Accounting Team
Presented by: The Intersect Group
Company Overview
We are partnering with a highly respected Fortune 500 organization headquartered in Atlanta, well-known for its financial stability, strong leadership, and commitment to developing exceptional talent. The company fosters a culture of continuous improvement and is preparing for a major systems transformation in the coming years. With a long history of promoting from within and offering structured professional advancement, this environment is ideal for accounting professionals seeking long-term growth and meaningful career progression.
Role Summary
The Intersect Group is seeking a Senior Accountant to join a growing and high-performing corporate accounting team. This position offers more than traditional GL responsibilities—providing exposure to analytical work, variance analysis, and cross-departmental collaboration.

This role will oversee key components of the month-end close process, review and guide the work of staff accountants, and support ongoing process improvements as the company moves toward future system upgrades. It is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to elevate their skill set and grow into leadership.
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Opened due to internal promotions — clear evidence of career mobility.
  • Performance-based advancement, allowing high achievers to grow quickly.
  • Early leadership exposure, including reviewing staff-level work and providing coaching.
  • Involvement in process improvements and system transformation initiatives.
  • Strong compensation model with bonuses historically paid above target.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and support month-end close activities, ensuring accuracy and timely completion.
  • Review journal entries, reconciliations, and the work of staff accountants; provide guidance and feedback.
  • Perform variance analysis and contribute to management-level reporting.
  • Assist with policy updates, process improvements, and preparation for future systems implementation.
  • Maintain confidentiality and uphold the highest standards of professionalism.
  • Collaborate with departments across the organization to resolve issues and support decision-making.
  • Support internal and external audit requests; help maintain strong internal controls.
Key Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (required).
  • 3+ years of corporate accounting experience, including full general ledger ownership.
  • Experience reviewing the work of staff accountants (journal entries, reconciliations).
  • Strong analytical skills with advanced Excel proficiency.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities.
  • Ability to thrive in a large, collaborative, fast-moving environment.
  • High level of integrity and commitment to maintaining confidentiality.
Preferred Skills
  • CPA or active CPA track.
  • Experience supporting multi-location or multi-market business units.
  • Experience with MS Dynamics or other large ERP systems.
  • Strong organization skills and ability to manage multiple priorities effectively.
