    Job Description

    ACCOUNTING CONTRACTOR

    Employment Type: Full-time Contract (40 hrs/week); 4-6 months

    Location: Remote (U.S.)

    Reports to: Director of Accounting

    Department: Finance & Accounting

    Travel Requirement: None expected

     

    Job Purpose Summary

    We are currently seeking a full-time Accounting Contractor to support our team through a high-growth, high-change stretch. This role will support month-end close, the accounting for a hedge program, and play a key role implementing FloQast to modernize our close process — freeing up our team to focus on a major ERP transition. This is an initial 4–6 month engagement, with the potential to extend into ERP cutover work.

     

    Candidate must be able to work in a team/mission driven environment and be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and jumping right in on day one. 

     

    Essential Job Responsibilities

    • Own day-to-day month-end close mechanics: journal entries, account reconciliations, variance analysis, and checklist execution.
    • Support hedge accounting documentation and effectiveness testing methodology ahead of the first hedge trades, then prepare ongoing monthly mark-to-market entries and effectiveness assessments once the program is live.
    • Map the current close calendar, tasks, and bottlenecks, and use that diagnostic to help build out FloQast — including reconciliation templates, task lists, and checklists, and training the accounting team.
    • Prepare recurring monthly and ad-hoc reporting as needed.
    • Support ERP cutover work as the engagement extends: data conversion validation, parallel-run reconciliations, and opening balance true-ups.
    • Partner closely with the Accounting Manager, Director of Accounting, and CFO across workstreams.

     

    Job Qualifications

    • Solid hands-on month-end close experience, including reconciliations, journal entries, and variance analysis.
    • Exposure to derivative or hedge accounting (ASC 815) is a strong plus.
    • Prior ERP transition or cutover experience is a meaningful plus.
    • Experience with NetSuite, QuickBooks, and FloQast.
    • CPG industry background and CPA preferred.
    • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and able to jump in and contribute from day one.
