This is a rare opportunity to join an excellent, “Best in the Midwest” company while stepping into a strategic, fast-paced, and innovative role.
Although strong accounting / finance skills are important, this company has emphasized their intent to hire an individual with a unique blend of technical aptitude, common sense, social intelligence, and a competitive spirit. If you value your technical accounting or finance background but want to leverage your resourcefulness and drive to problem solve and create impact, this role is for you.

In this role, you will have autonomy while working both independently and collaboratively with high-caliber peers to achieve meaningful results that make a difference.
- Join a collaborative team (many of which were high performers in public accounting) who consistently finds themselves at the conference room whiteboard problem solving and working together while providing actionable insights to decision-makers
- Take on diverse ad-hoc projects that will challenge you, expand your knowledge, and sharpen your skills as the department evolves and the business continues to grow.
- Broaden your expertise beyond finance while contributing to merger/acquisition activities, accounting, operations, strategy, and technology as you become a trusted member of the team.
- Work closely with the department director and organizational leaders, becoming the go-to person for strategic projects, leveraging your resourcefulness to solve complex problems, and presenting financial information for better-informed decision-making.
This role is excellent for someone looking to leverage their CPA/accounting background while gaining exposure to financial analysis, forecasting, KPI reporting, and strategy. We’re looking for a positive and practical problem-solver who desires autonomy and growth, ideally into financial or operational leadership in the future. This company offers exceptional compensation, career growth, a 10% 401K match, numerous retirement perks, a company kitchen, paid parking, and much more.
