    Job Description

    Position: Staff Accountant

    Location: Harwood Heights, IL

    About Us: We are a growing company in the manufacturing sector, committed to innovation and excellence. Our team is dedicated to providing top-notch products and services while fostering a collaborative and supportive work environment. We are currently seeking a motivated and experienced Staff Accountant to join our team and contribute to our continued success.

    Job Description: We are looking for a Staff Accountant to join our accounting team. This role is 100% on-site and offers the unique opportunity to work directly under the CFO, providing hands-on mentorship and significant growth potential. The Staff Accountant will initially focus on assisting with Accounts Payable (AP) activities, serving as a backup for payroll, and managing monthly journal entries. Over time, the role will expand to take full ownership of payroll responsibilities currently managed by the Senior Accountant.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Assist with Accounts Payable activities, including processing invoices and communicating with vendors and suppliers via email and phone.
    • Serve as a backup for payroll and eventually take full ownership of payroll responsibilities.
    • Complete approximately 20 journal entries per month.
    • Manage month-end close entries and reconcile AP monthly.
    • Reconcile petty cash and perform related entries.
    • Administer credit card transactions, ensuring proper coding.
    • File Ohio tax quarterly and handle royalty tracking, accruals, and payments.
    • Process monthly Superfleet invoices and annual 1099 forms.
    • Address questions from buyers and assist with receiver and purchase order issues.
    • Set up new vendors and manage any changes.
    • Assist with audits and reconcile RGNI monthly.
    • Set up foreign currency ACH and wire payments.
    • Print and manage AP checks.

    Must-Have Qualifications:

    • Bachelor's degree in accounting or finance.
    • 3-6+ years of relevant accounting experience.
    • Proficiency in Excel, including VLOOKUPS and Pivot Tables (XLOOKUPS is a plus).
    • Comfortable with manual entries for invoicing.
    • Ability to work on-site from 8 AM to 5 PM with occasional extended hours during month-end close.

    Preferred Qualifications:

    • Experience in the manufacturing industry.
    • CPA or Master's in Accountancy.
    • Familiarity with journal entries, month-end close processes, and reconciliations.
    • Experience working with manual accounting systems, with an interest in transitioning to an automated ERP system.

    Training and Development: The selected candidate will receive comprehensive training from the CFO and other senior team members. Initial training will involve learning AP processes from the AP Clerk, followed by direct mentorship from the CFO. This position offers a clear path to growth, with opportunities to advance to roles such as Controller and potentially CFO as our company continues to expand.

    What We Offer:

    • Competitive salary and benefits package.
    • Hands-on mentorship and development opportunities directly from the CFO.
    • A clear path for career advancement within the company.
    • A collaborative and supportive work environment.
