Senior Staff Accountant

Salary: $95,000 – $115,000 + bonus

Location: Schaumburg, IL

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• High-impact Senior Staff Accountant role within a fast-growing, values-driven organization
• Opportunity for a Senior Staff Accountant to own close processes tied to inventory, cost accounting, and operational finance
• Strong cross-functional exposure partnering with operations, regional finance, and warehouse leadership
• Culture-forward environment that prioritizes growth, accountability, inclusion, and continuous improvement
• Hands-on role with visibility into audits, analytics, and process transformation initiatives
• Competitive compensation, robust benefits, and long-term career development opportunities

Key Responsibilities for the Senior Staff Accountant:

• Own day-to-day accounting operations as a Senior Staff Accountant, including journal entries, reconciliations, and balance sheet and P&L variance analysis
• Manage inventory and cost accounting activities, ensuring accurate general ledger activity and strong supporting documentation
• Partner cross-functionally and support audits by preparing schedules, working papers, and analytical insights as a Senior Staff Accountant
• Drive process improvements and deliver complex ad hoc analysis as a Senior Staff Accountant, presenting findings and recommendations to leadership

Qualifications for the Senior Staff Accountant:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required; CPA required
• 4–5 years of progressive accounting experience, ideally in inventory or cost accounting environments
• Strong knowledge of US GAAP, financial statements, and general ledger activity with advanced Excel skills
• Detail-oriented Senior Staff Accountant with strong analytical, organizational, and communication abilities

This is a strong opportunity for a Senior Staff Accountant who enjoys ownership, operational partnership, and continuous improvement within a growing, people-first organization.
