About the Opportunity

A well-established, publicly traded manufacturing company headquartered in New York City is seeking a driven and high-caliber Senior Accountant to join its financial reporting team. This is a full-time, on-site role reporting five days per week from the company's New York office.

This organization is known for its strong internal culture, its commitment to developing talent, and its track record of promoting top performers. Individuals who demonstrate excellence can expect meaningful advancement opportunities within their first 12 to 18 months.

What You Will Do

The Senior Accountant will play an integral role in supporting the company's external and internal reporting obligations. Day-to-day responsibilities will include assisting with SEC reporting requirements, including the preparation and coordination of the company's annual 10-K and quarterly 10-Q filings. The individual in this role will also assist in the preparation and review of financial statements and will contribute meaningfully to the company's broader financial reporting function.

What We Are Looking For

  • The ideal candidate brings a minimum of three years of relevant accounting experience.
  • The company will consider candidates who come directly from public accounting, as well as those who bring a combined public and private industry background.
  • Candidates with experience in the manufacturing sector are strongly encouraged to apply.
  • Strong communication skills are essential.
  • This team places a premium on individuals who can articulate financial information clearly and collaborate effectively across functions.
  • Equally important is a demonstrated drive to grow, a commitment to excellence, and the ambition to build a long-term career within an organization.
  • A CPA designation is highly preferred.
  • Candidates who are actively working toward obtaining their CPA license are also strongly encouraged to apply and will be viewed very favorably in the evaluation process.

Preferred Qualifications

While not required, candidates who bring exposure to complex accounting standards, including ASC 470 (debt), ASC 842 (leases), or ASC 606 (revenue recognition), will be viewed as particularly competitive. Experience working within large enterprise resource planning systems such as Oracle or SAP is also a meaningful differentiator and will be viewed as a strong plus.

Why Join

This company offers a positive and collaborative working culture, a strong benefits package, and a genuine commitment to the professional development of its people. High-performing employees are recognized and rewarded, with clear pathways to promotion that have historically materialized within the first 12 to 18 months for those who consistently deliver results. This is an exceptional opportunity for a motivated accounting professional to make an immediate impact and grow their career within a respected public company.
