• Extract, compile, and validate data from NetSuite and other systems used to support reconciliations, reporting, and close deliverables

• Maintain organized workpapers and documentation that support SOX-compliant controls and audit readiness

• Collaborate with other members of the Accounting team to gather required inputs, track open items, and ensure timely completion of close deliverables

• Proactively communicate task status, escalate issues when needed, and ensure work is prepared accurately and ready for hand off to or review by teammates based in the U.S.

 

What We're Looking For: 

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

• 2–5 years of experience in accounting, financial reporting, audit, or a related role in a global accounting environment

• Experience preparing balance sheet reconciliations or supporting month-end close processes

• Ability to follow documented processes and maintain well-organized workpapers in a structured close environment

• Strong Excel skills, including pivot tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, and data validation

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing accurate work

• Reliable and comfortable managing recurring deadlines during the close cycle

 

We’ll be super impressed if you have experience in any of these:

• Audit experience or progress toward a Chartered Accountant (CA), CPA, or similar professional certification

• Big 4 or public accounting experience

• Experience working with ERP and close management systems such as NetSuite, FloQast, or Coupa
