  • Support the annual ESOP audit process by preparing required documentation.
  • Align financial practices with ESOP plan requirements and fiduciary standards.

Vendor & Banking Relationships
  • Manage relationships with banking institutions, insurance carriers, and financial vendors.
  • Oversee procurement and renewal of company insurance policies with the President.
  • Negotiate payment terms and manage vendor accounts to optimize cash flow.
Qualifications
Required
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related field.
  • Experience: Minimum 5 years of progressive accounting experience, with 2+ years in leadership.
  • QuickBooks Mastery: Advanced hands-on experience managing complex ledgers within QuickBooks.

  • Communication: Strong ability to present financial data clearly to non-financial stakeholders.
Preferred
