Senior Accountant

CFS, Fitchburg, WI, United States

Salary max: $48.00

Duration: Full Time


Senior Accountant


Compensation



  • $100,000–$110,000 base + 5% annual bonus


Benefits & Growth:



  • Direct exposure to high-impact M&A, investments, and joint ventures

  • Broad technical accounting, consolidation, and valuation work—far beyond routine GL or compliance

  • Supported by an experienced, engaged team and strong cross-functional partnership


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Executive access and technical influence in a highly acquisitive, growing public company

  • Essential contributor to business-critical transformation—ERP rollout, ongoing M&A, and specialty projects

  • Opportunity to drive decision-making, solve complex commercial accounting challenges, and build visibility across finance, legal, treasury, and risk

  • Strong merit-based development: high-performing seniors see accelerated promotion, provided CPA is completed


Key Responsibilities of the Senior Accountant:



  • Lead technical accounting and fair value workstreams for M&A transaction opening balance sheets and purchase price allocations

  • Drive the review, structuring, and documentation of complex joint ventures, investments, and asset valuations

  • Collaborate with legal, risk, treasury, and valuation teams to resolve business-critical technical accounting matters, including new standards implementation

  • Champion process and policy enhancements aligned to major system (ERP) rollout, consolidation, and reporting initiatives

  • Serve as a technical resource for internal stakeholders, providing clear, actionable guidance across the organization


Must-Have Skills/Experience (Required):



  • CPA (completed strongly preferred; must be willing/able to finish exam for promotion).

  • Technical accounting expertise (including M&A, consolidations, investments, or public company environment).

  • Demonstrated ability to analyze and resolve complex accounting challenges with business orientation.

  • Experience in a publicly traded company.
