CAREER CONNECTOR

SUMMARY
We are currently working with an accounting service to identify a Sr. Accountant. This privately held company specializes in being the “accounting department” for their clients who are IT service providers to the government. 

This position is an addition to the current staff due to growth, but also a newly created role with the intention to identify an individual who has the ability and interest to eventually step into a leadership role.

This is a full-time direct hire opportunity offering a casual, friendly, and professional small office environment, a flexible daylight work schedule, and the opportunity to work with a unique set of clients who each have their differences in how they operate and their policies / procedures. True partnerships are formed with clients who see you as an extension of their company, and you get to feel part of the excitement as they grow and achieve certain milestones. The work is challenging, rewarding, and never boring. 

If you have a love for accounting and have interest in exploring an opportunity that is not your average “run of the mill” accounting position, we look forward to sharing information and learning more about you!
