In this role you will take end-to-end ownership of our financial reporting, optimize accounting processes, elevate internal controls, lead audit readiness, and provide company leadership with clear, accurate, and decision-grade financial insight.

You will work closely with Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, Marketing, company leadership, and our fractional accounting firm to ensure accounting excellence. This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to step into a true #1 accounting seat and build the function the right way.

  • Oversee cost accounting processes to ensure accurate COGS calculation and margin reporting across product lines and channels
  • Own accounting treatment of trade spend, deductions, chargebacks, and retail programs, ensuring accurate accruals and gross-to-net visibility

Treasury / Cash Management and AP/AR

  • Partner with Finance to manage cash positioning across operating and savings accounts and maintain cash flow forecasts to provide visibility into expected inflows and outflows
  • Identify opportunities to improve cash efficiency and optimize working capital
  • With support from fractional accounting team, own the AP and AR processes and implement industry best practices

Audit & Technical Accounting

  • Lead preparation for the company’s first external audit
  • Build audit-ready documentation, internal control frameworks, and formal accounting policies
  • Serve as primary liaison with external auditors
  • Research and document technical accounting positions as needed

Leadership & Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Partner with finance on budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis
  • Support financing, investor diligence, and strategic initiatives
  • Present financial results and insights to senior leadership

Requirements

  • CPA with 8-12+ years of accounting experience, preferably within CPG
  • Deep knowledge of US GAAP
  • Strong understanding of inventory, cost, and retail accounting
  • Experience leading or participating in external audits
  • Technical experience working with ERPs and inventory management systems
