Accounting & Finance, Sales & Business Development
Tampa, FL, USA
Posted on Feb 4, 2026

We are a high-growth, global, private-equity-backed software company with an active acquisition strategy. As we scale, we are building a best-in-class accounting leadership team grounded in execution, ownership, and operational discipline.

This role is an ideal opportunity for professionals with a strong, traditional accounting background who are looking to expand their exposure to ERP systems, system integrations, and project-based work—while continuing to deepen their core accounting expertise. In a high-growth, PE-backed software environment with an active acquisition strategy, you’ll operate at the center of accounting operations and execution. You’ll partner on month-end close end-to-end, build scalable and repeatable processes, and partner closely with business systems and cross-functional teams. You’ll also gain hands-on experience supporting ERP integrations and acquisition onboarding, making this a great fit for accountants who enjoy operational ownership, structured execution, and growing their scope alongside a scaling organization

Key Responsibilities

Month-End Close & Accounting Operations (Primary)

  • Own day-to-day execution of the month-end close for assigned areas.
  • Prepare and review journal entries and supporting schedules.
  • Review balance sheet reconciliations and ensure timely, well-documented resolution of reconciling items.
  • Perform month-over-month variance analysis and clearly communicate key drivers to leadership.
  • Enforce the close calendar while maintaining strong documentation and internal control discipline.
  • Act as a primary point of contact for audit support, including PBCs, schedules, and explanations.

Process Ownership & Continuous Improvement

  • Take ownership of close-related processes and deliverables—this role is expected to run things, not wait for direction.
  • Improve consistency, accuracy, and timeliness of reconciliations and reporting.
  • Identify process gaps, propose pragmatic solutions, and implement repeatable improvements.
  • Partner cross-functionally with FP&A, RevOps, and Business Sys to resolve data issues and improve reporting reliability.
  • Help mature the accounting function as the company scales through acquisitions.

Systems & Data

  • Work confidently in ERP and finance systems (NetSuite experience strongly preferred).
  • Partner with teams using Salesforce and related systems to ensure accurate financial inputs.
  • Leverage technology—including AI tools where appropriate—to accelerate analysis and documentation, while maintaining strong controls and validation.

M&A Integration Support (Secondary / Trained)

  • Support onboarding of acquired businesses into standard close and reconciliation processes.
  • Assist with trial balance mapping, process standardization, and close readiness using established templates.
  • Participate in integration project meetings and help track accounting deliverables.
  • Over time, develop confidence operating within a repeatable integration playbook.

People Leadership

  • Manage and develop at least one direct report.
  • Set priorities, review work for quality and completeness, and coach on close discipline.
  • Build accountability, predictability, and pride of ownership within the team.
