Technical Accounting Manager (SEC Reporting)

Energy Talent Search is working with a growing tech/manufacturing company<\/b> in the South Denver area that’s continuing to build out its finance function.
<\/p>

They’re looking for someone who can take ownership of external reporting and step into the more complex side of accounting. This is a visible role where you’re working directly with leadership and auditors, not buried in a back -office function.
<\/p>

What You’ll Actually Be Doing<\/b><\/span>
<\/h3>

• Leading the company’s external reporting process across reporting cycles
  <\/li>
• Preparing financial statements and disclosures that are clean, accurate, and audit -ready
  <\/li>
• Acting as the internal resource on technical accounting matters as they arise
  <\/li>
• Working directly with external auditors and helping drive timelines
  <\/li>
• Supporting key business activity (equity, transactions, and other non -routine items)
  <\/li>
• Interpreting new accounting guidance and applying what’s relevant
  <\/li>
• Improving reporting processes and tightening overall structure
  <\/li><\/ul>

  SEC Reporting Focus (Key Requirement)<\/b><\/span>
  <\/h3>

  This role requires hands -on experience with public company reporting<\/b>—not just exposure.
  <\/p>

  You should be comfortable:
  <\/p>

  • Owning or heavily contributing to quarterly and annual filings
    <\/li>
  • Working directly within the reporting process, not just supporting from the side
    <\/li>
  • Preparing and reviewing disclosures tied to financial statements
    <\/li>
  • Understanding how reporting ties back to U.S. GAAP and audit requirements
    <\/li>
  • Managing timelines and deliverables tied to external reporting cycles
    <\/li><\/ul>

    Candidates coming strictly from private company accounting or internal industry roles WITHOUT ANY direct SEC exposure will not be a fit.

    Requirements<\/h3>

    What They’re Looking For<\/b><\/span>
    <\/h3>

    • CPA required
      <\/li>
    • Background in public accounting (Big 4 or similar strongly preferred)

      <\/li>
    • Strong understanding of U.S. GAAP in a public company environment
      <\/li>
    • Experience working through technical accounting issues—not just standard close/reporting
      <\/li>
    • Ability to communicate clearly with leadership and auditors
      <\/li>
    • Someone who can operate independently and take ownership
      <\/li><\/ul>

      What the Role Feels Like<\/b><\/span>
      <\/h3>

      • Mix of recurring reporting cycles and more complex, project -driven accounting work
        <\/li>
      • High visibility with leadership and external auditors
        <\/li>
      • Fast -moving environment with ongoing growth and change
        <\/li>

        <\/li><\/ul>

        Why This Role Stands Out<\/b><\/span>

          <\/li>
