We are looking for a highly caffeinated Senior Manager – Accounting that wants to join an organization where they will be asked to be a forward looking thinker, improve processes, challenge the status quo and partner cross functionally throughout the global enterprise.
This is a newly created role to continue to add horsepower to the already credentialed team. To be successful you must be resourceful with a high initiative, willing to learn the business (not just accounting) and take on new projects.
We are partnering with one of Chicago’s fastest growing companies located in the heart of the Loop within walking distance from the blue, red, orange, brown and pink lines. They had a record Q3 and Q4 in 2020 based on how they partnered with their clients during the pandemic and added over 100 national clients last year.
They hire energetic people who enjoy solving problems and working on mission critical projects for their clients. This is best suited for those in public accounting who enjoy the culture of their firm and ready to explore external options but don’t know exactly what role they want next or for those in industry that are bored with mundane work and seek more challenge and higher profile projects – think due diligence for mergers and acquisitions, financial reporting for global entities, month end close for complex transactions and other projects offering resume building blocks for continued career growth.
Also, if you’ve ever found yourself wanting a better work/life balance (or at least get compensated for the extra hours you put in), picking the amount of travel you do or don’t do and not being specialized in any one industry or vertical then this could be a great fit for you.
Must have a strong foundation in public accounting, enjoy working cross functionally and able to effectively communicate with executive leaders.
Our client is a fast growing (organic and through acquisitions) global PE backed company in the heart of the Loop that is looking to add a couple senior accountants who are hungry to learn and grow with a path to Manager. Currently a fully remote role with options to work from home a few days a week once COVID subsides.
The leadership team is one we’ve known for a couple years – former Big 4 and Fortune 500 leaders who know how to grow a business and develop teams and also bring an unmatched level of passion and energy to what they do!
This high energy culture is ideally targeting someone with public accounting roots but will look at a strong industry accountant with a proven track record of digging in and taking on new projects who wants to develop their career and be engaged when it comes to working cross functionally and improving processes!
We have partnered with a well known national management consulting firm to help them add to their established Private Equity practice that focuses on M&A due diligence for pre-IPO/SPAC deals and CFO's most complex accounting transactions. This group is driving heavy growth in the firm and is entrepreneurial in nature so you'll be surrounded by sharp and motivated people that will help you develop personally and professionally.
Must be comfortable operating in a fast paced environment and hungry for challenging work. They offer above market compensation with a heavy bonus structure.
Preference will be given to candidates coming out of public accounting in audit, valuation, deals advisory or other M&A related functions with 4-10+ years' of experience.

We have a rare opportunity to help a public company build out their accounting function! The CFO and Finance Director are bringing in top talent to help drive their transformation and build the accounting process and team. A couple nice things is that this is NOT a routine role and good for someone who doesn’t want to be given a checklist or tasks to complete but rather figure things out, improve and build process and work as a team to get things done.
You'll own the entire month end close process and work closely with the FP&A team.
