Overview

Apex Systems is partnering with our private, multi‑entity client to hire a Financial Accounting Manager. This leader will play a critical role in managing consolidations, financial reporting, and technical accounting across multiple entities within the organization.

The Financial Accounting Manager will support expanded audit activity, increased reporting volume, and the need for stronger technical accounting leadership as the Enterprise continues to scale. This role is ideal for a CPA with deep experience in consolidations, SEC‑level footnotes, cash flow preparation, and accounting research-someone who enjoys hands‑on work while also mentoring team members and strengthening overall accounting processes.

Responsibilities

Financial Reporting & Consolidations

  • Lead the consolidation of financials for the parent company, including eliminations, intercompany activity, and multi‑entity rollups.
  • Prepare and review financial statement footnotes, ensuring completeness, accuracy, and alignment with GAAP and SEC expectations.
  • Manage monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes, including journal entries, trial balance management, account reconciliations, bank reconciliations, and subsidiary ledger maintenance.
  • Prepare and ensure accuracy of cash flow statements and related reporting schedules.
  • Partner with operations leaders to ensure financial impacts of operational activity are correctly captured.

Audit & Compliance

  • Manage the Audit PBC process, ensuring all requested documents are pulled accurately, validated, and submitted to external auditors.
  • Support increasing audit requirements as the Enterprise grows in entity volume and reporting complexity.
  • Ensure compliance with accounting policies, GAAP standards, controls, and internal reporting procedures.

Operational & Cross‑Functional Partnerships

  • Conduct accounting research on complex topics, provide technical guidance, and communicate recommended accounting treatments to leadership.
  • Participate in enterprise-wide special projects, including accounting assessments, operational reviews, and process improvements.
  • Assist with data pulls, data validation, and preparation of documentation used in consolidated reporting and audits.

Leadership & Team Development

  • Mentor and guide team members, providing feedback and oversight on reconciliations, journal entries, footnotes, and consolidations.
  • Help strengthen the accounting team's technical depth and build long‑term bench strength.
  • Demonstrate reliability, confidentiality, and sound judgment in all financial matters.

Required Qualifications

  • Active CPA license (must meet 5th‑year educational requirement).
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting.
  • 5+ years of financial accounting management experience with multi‑entity exposure.
  • Strong experience with consolidations at scale (beyond 1-2 entities; including eliminations & intercompany activity)
  • Experience preparing and editing GAAP and SEC‑level footnotes
  • Experience with Cash flow statement preparation
  • Experience with Accounting research
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, advanced functions, tab merges) and Microsoft Word.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, deadlines, and priorities.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Accounting or related field.
  • Experience with public accounting (Big 4 or mid‑tier) and/or a blend of public + private industry.
  • Experience working in organizations with complex multi‑entity consolidations.
  • Construction accounting or percent‑complete accounting experience is strongly preferred.

What the Hiring Manager Values

  • Strong consolidation experience within larger, more complex organizations.
  • Footnote creation and editing experience
  • Cash flow reporting experience.
  • A genuine interest in accounting research and technical problem‑solving.
  • Public + private background (Big 4 preferred).
  • Ability to validate data thoroughly before passing it to auditors.
  • Leadership qualities: reviewing work, mentoring others, and elevating the department.
