Raising the Standard

Some roles are about processing transactions. This one is about ensuring financial operations run with consistency, accuracy, and accountability.

At Trinitas, we look for professionals who naturally take ownership, solve problems before they become issues, and raise the standard for operational excellence. If you enjoy improving processes, partnering across teams, and being the trusted resource others rely on, you'll find meaningful work here.

Why This Role Matters

The Senior Accountant serves as the operational lead within the Accounting department, partnering closely with the Senior Director of Accounting to oversee outsourced accounting operations, Accounts Payable, and construction draw accounting.

This role helps ensure financial information is accurate, timely, and reliable while supporting the continued growth of the organization. Success means month-end closes run smoothly, accounting operations remain well-controlled, and business partners can confidently rely on accurate financial information to make decisions.

You won't simply complete accounting tasks; you'll help maintain the financial discipline that supports the entire organization.
