About the role

Remi is seeking a hands-on Accounting Manager (Assistant Controller for the right candidate) to own the general ledger, accelerate our monthly close, and lead audit readiness for 2024-2025. You'll mentor and level-up G/L accountants, stand up a durable reconciliations and controls framework, and be a key partner in our ERP transition from QuickBooks Online.

You'll partner closely with our existing managers who run operational accounting (AP/AR, cash collections, treasury) and technical accounting. Your lane: close owner, G/L hygiene, audit leader, and process + systems maturation.

What you'll do

Close & G/L Ownership Own the monthly close calendar end-to-end; drive a consistent

5-day close

with zero critical post-close adjustments. Build and enforce a reconciliations program (auto-roll schedules, documented procedures, review sign-offs) across cash, AR, AP, prepaid, fixed assets, accruals, deferrals, intercompany and consolidation. Lead historical

G/L cleanup

(multi-year), including suspense clearing, account rationalization, and policy alignment (chart of accounts, mapping, and posting rules). Implement flux analysis (P&L, BS, CF) with materiality thresholds and owner sign-offs. Audit Readiness & Controls

Own the PBC list and be primary auditor liaison; deliverables on time, with tie-outs and narratives. Coordinate with technical accounting lead on memos; operationalize conclusions into repeatable entries and controls. People Leadership

Train and coach G/L and staff accountants (review workpapers, give targeted feedback, create skill ladders and SOPs). Introduce QA review routines (tick-and-tie standards, template workpapers, naming conventions, evidence retention). Cross-functional partnership

Work with Operations and Collections on AR aging integrity and cash application rules; ensure revenue/cost cut-off aligns to project milestones and partner remittances. Work closely with technical accounting manager to implement schedules into the close process Outcomes (2025/2026) 5-day close

by bringing external accounting functions in house within 2 months. Clean external audit

for FY2024 & FY2025: no material weaknesses; limited management letter comments, all remediated within 90 days. G/L remediation : eliminate legacy suspense/placeholder balances; all balance-sheet accounts reconciled monthly with owner and timestamped review. What you've done

Must-have Bachelor's in Accounting/Finance;

in accounting with increasing scope (public + private mix ideal). Proven owner of a
