• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, with expert-level proficiency in pivot tables.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy when handling financial data and templates.

• Experience with accounting functions such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, reconciliations, and data entry.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience with Infor Mapics ERP or similar enterprise resource planning systems.
• Background in supporting SOX compliance or working within a public company environment.
• Experience with fixed asset accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, and record maintenance.
• Experience preparing or maintaining balance sheet reconciliations.
• Experience calculating commissions and managing commission-related data.
• Experience with credit card general ledger mapping and expense coding.

Note

**This is a temporary assignment expected to last approximately 3–6 months, with potential for extension based on business needs. The standard schedule is Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with the possibility of additional evening or weekend hours during month-end close, when the books are closed in approximately 1.5 days. You will work closely with the finance team during a high-volume period focused on SOX compliance, month-end close, and project cleanup. The environment is fast-paced and project-driven, with a casual dress code. Core tools include Microsoft Excel, particularly pivot tables, and potentially Infor Mapics ERP, though prior experience with that system is helpful but not required.
