Description
Superior Insurance Partners is a rapidly growing insurance brokerage platform specializing in commercial lines, personal lines, and employee benefits solutions for businesses and individuals across the United States. Through strategic acquisitions and long-term partnerships with leading independent agencies, Superior has built a strong presence throughout the Midwest and Eastern U.S.
At the core of Superior's approach is its mission: to improve the lives of its Agency Partners by supporting their personal, professional, and financial goals. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, Superior develops customized growth strategies tailored to each partner agency's unique vision and objectives. Agency partners gain access to a robust shared-services platform that includes accounting and finance, recruiting, human resources, AMS/IT support, marketing, and M&A expertise — allowing local agencies to maintain their entrepreneurial culture while benefiting from the scale, resources, and best practices of a larger organization. Long-term economic alignment ensures partners remain invested in the collective success and growth of the platform.
Superior Insurance Partners is backed by Tyree & D'Angelo Partners ("TDP"), a leading Chicago-based private equity firm focused on investing in and partnering with lower middle-market businesses. TDP companies have completed over 1,000 partnerships, have grown to over $4 billion of enterprise value, and TDP has over $1.4 billion of capital under management.
We are currently seeking a Staff Accountant to join our high-growth, fast-paced company. This position will report to the Accounting Manager and play a key role in onboarding and supporting acquired agencies with agency management system ("AMS") and accounting responsibilities. Desire to work in a growth-oriented business with a focus on acquisitions and integrations is highly valued. The chosen candidate will be a team player and assist with all elements of the accounting function, including production report and accounting reconciliation, general ledger accounting, month-end close and reconciliation of banking transactions.
Job Responsibilities:
- Process, record, and reconcile deposits received by Superior.
- Track and follow up with agency on overdue client accounts.
- Reconcile direct bill commission statements.
- Reconcile premium payables and issue carrier payments.
- Reconcile monthly bank statements.
- Review of monthly producer and sub-broker commissions.
- Draft and send invoices to agency customers.
- Reconcile general ledger accounts as needed.
- Enter journal entries.
- Handle audit requests.
- Prepare monthly financial reports including variance analysis.
- Assist in the creation of ad hoc financial analyses for agency partners.
Required Criteria
- Accounting degree and 1+ years' experience working with small to mid-size multi-location companies or 5+ years of accounting experience.
- Strong attention to detail and a high degree of accuracy.
- Good verbal and written communication skills.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (including advanced skills), Word, Outlook and preferably Power Point.
- Must be able to multi-task and meet agreed upon deadlines.
