We are seeking a driven and detail-oriented Senior Accountant to join our growing finance team.

You will play a key role in ensuring the accuracy and integrity of financial reporting and will have opportunities to contribute to process improvement, technology adoption, and broader finance initiatives.

The ideal candidate is ambitious and eager to grow within a high-performing team. You are a natural problem solver who takes ownership of your work and looks for ways to do things better. You thrive in environments that reward initiative and aren’t afraid to raise your hand, ask questions, or suggest a new approach. An interest in technology, especially how AI is reshaping the accounting function, will set you apart. Equally important is how you show up for your team. We’re looking for someone who is collaborative, approachable, and easy to work with, someone who communicates openly, supports their colleagues, and contributes to a positive team culture.
