Job Description

Interim Senior Cost Accountant

Why This Opportunity Stands Out


Join an innovative, growth-focused life sciences organization at a pivotal stage of expansion.

  • Manage inventory costing methodologies and item maintenance within NetSuite.

  • Support month-end close, inventory reconciliations, and variance analysis.

  • Partner with cross-functional teams to improve inventory accuracy, processes, and reporting.


Qualifications for the Sr Cost Accountant:



  • 6+ years of cost accounting and inventory accounting experience within biotech, life sciences, manufacturing, or a related industry.

  • Strong knowledge of inventory costing, COGS, reconciliations, and month-end close processes.

  • Experience with NetSuite and advanced Excel skills highly desired.
