Assistant Controller

Arkansas Talent Group

Little Rock, AR

Full-time

Re-posted 29 days ago


Job description

Arkansas Talent Group is exclusively partnering with one of Arkansas's largest and most well-established privately held companies in the state to help them find an Assistant Controller for their organization. They are headquartered in North Little Rock. This is a rare opportunity to join a tenured, high-performing accounting team and work directly under an experienced CFO who is known for developing top accounting talent.

The Assistant Controller will serve as a key contributor to the day-to-day and month-end accounting operations, playing an integral role in maintaining the financial integrity of the organization.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare and post journal entries accurately and in compliance with GAAP
  • Own and manage the month-end and year-end close process, ensuring timely completion
  • Perform general ledger reconciliations and balance sheet account analysis
  • Assist with the preparation of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements
  • Conduct bank reconciliations and resolve discrepancies in a timely manner
  • Support intercompany reconciliations and allocations across multiple entities
  • Collaborate with the CFO and accounting team on special projects, reporting initiatives, and process improvement efforts
  • Maintain organized, audit-ready financial records and supporting documentation
  • Assist with external audit preparation and tax filing support as needed

Ideal Candidate Background:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting required
  • Minimum of 2–5 years of corporate or public accounting experience
  • Strong working knowledge of GAAP and general ledger accounting
  • Experience with month-end close, financial statement preparation, and account reconciliations
  • CPA or CPA candidate preferred, but not required
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and accounting ERP systems
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • A collaborative, team-first attitude with the ability to work independently

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Work directly under a highly respected CFO with a team-oriented leadership style
  • Join one of Arkansas's most established and financially sound privately held companies
  • Competitive compensation, great benefits, strong bonus opportunities, beautiful offices, and a professional work environment
  • Opportunity for long-term career growth within a well-capitalized organization

For more information, please apply directly or send a message on LinkedIn to Chris Chunn or Stephanie Shine.
