  • Manage treasury activities including cash flow forecasting, banking relationships, and liquidity optimization.

  • Develop and enhance accounting policies, procedures, and internal documentation.
  • Identify and implement process improvements and automation initiatives to support scale.
  • Manage, mentor, and develop staff accountants to build a high-performance team.

  • Experience with revenue recognition, inventory management, intercompany accounting, payroll, AP/AR, and fixed assets.
  • Treasury experience: cash flow forecasting, banking relationships, and liquidity management.
  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop staff accountants.
  • Experience driving process improvement and automation (ERP optimizations, automation tools).
  • Experience supporting external audits and public company reporting readiness.
