Senior Accountant (Bakersfield)

CFS, Bakersfield, CA, United States

Salary max: $36.00

Duration: Full Time


Senior Accountant
Location: Bakersfield, CA (Onsite)
Salary: $75,000 – $95,000 DOE


Join a company where your work directly supports a global agricultural operation. Our client is a well-established cotton marketing cooperative headquartered in Bakersfield, with decades of experience delivering high-quality products and services worldwide. With a strong presence across multiple states and long-standing industry relationships, this is an organization known for both stability and impact.


This is more than a traditional accounting role. You’ll work closely with operations and leadership while helping ensure financial accuracy across a large-scale, logistics-driven business.


The Opportunity


As a Senior Accountant, you’ll support core accounting functions, financial reporting, and process improvement efforts. This role offers visibility across the organization and the opportunity to contribute to accurate and timely financial operations.


What You’ll Do




  • Manage general ledger activity, reconciliations, and month-end close




  • Prepare financial reports and support budgeting and analysis




  • Assist with inventory and operational accounting as needed




  • Ensure compliance with accounting standards and internal controls




  • Partner with internal teams to support financial accuracy and reporting




What We’re Looking For




  • 3–5+ years of accounting experience in a progressive role




  • Strong knowledge of general ledger and month-end close processes




  • Proficiency in Excel and accounting systems




  • Experience in agriculture, logistics, or inventory-based environments preferred




Why This Role Stands Out




  • Established organization with long-term stability




  • Exposure to large-scale operations and global markets




  • High-visibility role with cross-functional impact




  • Collaborative environment with supportive leadership




  • Opportunity for long-term growth




If you’re looking for a role where you can take ownership, support operations, and contribute to a well-established organization, this is a strong next step.
