Job Description

Title: Staff Accountant

Location: East Norwalk, hybrid dependent on location

Compensation: $80,000-95,000 + bonus potential

Company

Our client is one of the fastest growing, most dynamic companies in the rapidly growing utility scale solar industry, offering top quality products that generate the most energy, and deliver the most cost-effective results. The company has grown over 100% on average each of the last three years, recognizing over $1 billion in annual revenue — a testament to its market leadership and financial strength. This is a rare opportunity to bring your public accounting foundation into a high-impact corporate role at a company scaling at an extraordinary pace.

Function

If you’ve built a strong technical foundation in public accounting and are ready to put those skills to work in a corporate environment where your contributions have real, visible impact, this role is for you. Our client is seeking a Staff Accountant to join a lean, high-performing Accounting Team at a $1B+ revenue company. Unlike the structured rotation of public accounting, this position offers direct ownership of core accounting functions, exposure to senior leadership, and the opportunity to grow with a company on a steep upward trajectory. You will move beyond audit and into the full-cycle accounting operations that drive a fast-growing business forward.

Responsibilities

• Own full-cycle AP and AR transaction processing, applying the same rigor and accuracy you developed in public accounting to a high-volume corporate environment
• Perform daily and weekly bank reconciliations and cash application
• Maintain the general ledger through timely and accurate journal entries
• Take an active role in month-end and quarter-end close, preparing journal entries and contributing to a close process where your public accounting close experience will be immediately valued
• Reconcile balance sheet accounts and investigate variances
• Support vendor and customer account management, including resolving billing discrepancies
• Assist with credit card and expense report processing and coding
• Maintain organized and complete financial records and supporting documentation
• Partner cross-functionally with operations, procurement, and finance teams — leveraging the client-facing communication skills you honed in public accounting
• Assist with ad hoc reporting and special projects as assigned
• Perform other related duties as necessary or assigned

Skills and Requirements

• Solid understanding of basic accounting principles (debits, credits, accruals)
• Experience with accounts payable, accounts receivable, and general ledger functions
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel; experience with accounting software required (NetSuite a plus)
• High attention to detail with a strong sense of urgency and follow-through
• Ability to manage a high volume of transactions while maintaining accuracy
• Strong organizational and time management skills with the ability to prioritize competing deadlines
• Team player with a collaborative, can-do attitude and willingness to pitch in where needed
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment where priorities can shift quickly
• Demonstrated integrity and professionalism
• Big 4 or public accounting background strongly preferred — your technical training and work ethic are exactly what this team is looking for

Education / Training

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

Experience

• One to three (1 – 3) years’ experience in a full-cycle accounting position
• Experience at a Big 4, regional, or public accounting firm is a significant advantage — candidates looking to make the transition to a dynamic corporate environment are strongly encouraged to apply
• Prior corporate or industry experience is a plus, but not required — we recognize that public accounting candidates bring exceptional technical depth and client-service orientation that translate directly to this role
