Job Description
Accounting Specialist
We’re partnering with a well-established company in the Newington area that is looking to bring on an experienced accounting professional to replace a long-tenured employee retiring from the role. This is a full-time, contract-to-hire opportunity with long-term potential, offering
$32/hr+ depending on experience.
The client is open to different experience levels — from a senior-level Controller / Accounting Manager to a hands-on accountant who can confidently manage accounts receivable and general ledger close-out. The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys being involved in the day-to-day accounting while also providing stability and continuity.
Title may vary based on experience.
Key Responsibilities
- Oversee and/or support accounts receivable (AR) processes
- Manage general ledger activities including month-end close
- Prepare and review journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reports
- Maintain accuracy of financial records and ensure compliance with internal procedures
- Support budgeting, reporting, and audit preparation as needed
- Collaborate with leadership to ensure a smooth transition and continuity of operations
Qualifications
- Prior experience in accounting, finance, or controllership
- Strong understanding of general ledger accounting and AR
- Experience with month-end and year-end close processes
- Comfortable working in a small to mid-size business environment
- Strong attention to detail and ability to work independently
- ERP / accounting software experience preferred (QuickBooks, SAP, NetSuite, or similar)
