Job Description



Accounting Consultant


Greater Hartford Area | Fully Onsite
Salary: $95,000 - $120,000


Our client is seeking an experienced Accounting Consultant to support their team during a critical period of business integration and growth. This highly visible, hands-on role offers the opportunity to work closely with leadership, maintain continuity across accounting operations, and make an immediate impact on the organization.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out



  • Play a key role in supporting business continuity during a post-acquisition integration.

  • Partner directly with executive leadership and contribute to important financial decisions.

  • Benefit from a structured onboarding process and clearly defined deliverables.

  • Take ownership of critical accounting functions, including month-end close and financial reporting.

  • Help strengthen processes, improve documentation, and support a seamless leadership transition.


Key Responsibilities



  • Manage the month-end close process, including account reconciliations, cash management, and preparation of accurate financial statements.

  • Document accounting procedures and facilitate knowledge transfer to support long-term operational success.

  • Provide financial reporting and support for management, sales, and customer service teams.

  • Reconcile inventory and sales activity across multiple entities to ensure data accuracy and integrity.

  • Maintain strong accounting practices with a focus on process improvement, compliance, and operational efficiency.

  • Serve as a trusted resource for financial analysis and ad hoc reporting requests.


Qualifications



  • Minimum of 5 years of accounting experience within manufacturing, distribution, or a similar operational environment.

  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including Pivot Tables and VLOOKUPs (or equivalent functions).

  • Experience working with ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle, DDI, QuickBooks, or comparable platforms.

  • Strong documentation, organizational, and communication skills.

  • Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and thrive in a collaborative onsite environment.
