The Right Person

We are looking for more than someone who simply prepares financial statements. The successful candidate will be a hands-on leader and problem solver who takes ownership of the accounting function, helps keep the corporate office organized and operating effectively, and have the desire to advance in their career and help develop others to advance.

You should be comfortable working in an entrepreneurial environment where businesses are growing, priorities can change quickly, and management relies on you for accurate information and sound judgment. You should also be willing to dig into the details when necessary while maintaining a clear understanding of the bigger financial picture.
