    • Bachelor's degree from an accredited college/university in accounting, finance, or related disciplines

    Preference:
    Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or CPA eligible

    • Strong project management skills
    • Ability to manage and train personnel
    • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.
