15 Hasbro Accounting Jobs Hiring Near You

We are seeking a Senior Accountant to join the team responsible for the accounting for Hasbro's global network of licensees across categories such as merchandising, publishing, digital gaming, casino, and location-based entertainment. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Royalties, you will own core royalty accounting, close, and control activities - and, just as importantly, help build a stronger, more efficient way of running them.

This is a role for a strong accountant who is not content to run the process as-is. We are actively modernizing how royalty accounting works - strengthening controls, simplifying processes, and raising the bar on accuracy and efficiency - and you will be a driving force in that effort. Success in this role means seeing a manual, repetitive, or fragile process and making it better, pairing that instinct with disciplined, reliable execution.

Effective from the date that Hasbro opens its new Boston location, this position will be onsite Tuesday - Thursday at Hasbro's new HQ location in Boston, MA. In the interim, this position will be onsite Tuesday - Thursday at Hasbro's HQ in Pawtucket, RI or at Hasbro's temporary location in Boston, MA.

What You Will Do as a Senior Accountant:

• Own royalty accounting, close, and reconciliations - prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and month-end and quarter-end close activities, ensuring royalty revenue and associated balances are recorded completely, accurately, and on time.
• Strengthen controls and process - build, improve, and stand behind the controls and checks that keep royalty accounting accurate and well-documented, closing gaps and making the process more reliable quarter over quarter.
• Drive continuous improvement and lean process change - actively identify manual, repetitive, or fragile steps and redesign, automate, or streamline them; measure the impact and make the improvement stick.
• Account for licensee guarantees and overages - ensure minimum guarantees, overages, and related true-ups are tracked, calculated, and recorded accurately, and that issues are surfaced and resolved.
• Partner across the business - work closely with the offshore royalty operations team, Finance, Legal, and business partners to keep royalty accounting aligned to operational reality and to move issues to resolution.
• Support audits - prepare documentation and respond to internal and external auditor requests, and help ensure the control environment holds up to scrutiny.
• Read and apply contract terms - review licensing agreements and amendments to ensure royalty accounting reflects the terms of the deal, partnering with Technical Accounting on complex judgments.
• Complete ad hoc projects - support special analyses and process or system initiatives as the function evolves.

What You Will Bring:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting; Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation preferred.
• Minimum 3 years of public accounting and/or public company experience; Big Four experience preferred.
• A genuine bias toward continuous improvement - demonstrated success identifying a manual or inefficient process and redesigning, automating, or streamlining it, with measurable results.
• Strong working knowledge of US GAAP and internal controls / Sarbanes-Oxley concepts.
• Comfort and curiosity with systems and technology, and eagerness to use tools to work more efficiently and reduce manual effort.
• Experience reviewing and interpreting contracts; knowledge of the licensing industry or royalty accounting is a plus.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel; experience with SAP and BlackLine preferred.
• Ability to succeed in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment and meet deadlines.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to learn and adapt in a dynamic environment.
