We are partnering with a growing, privately held organization seeking a Senior Director of Accountingto take ownership of its accounting function and play an important role in building the financial infrastructure to support continued growth.
This is an exciting opportunity for a technically strong accounting professional who enjoys being hands-on but is ready to step into a more strategic leadership position. Reporting directly to the CFO, this individual will have significant autonomy, exposure to executive leadership, and the opportunity to make a tangible impact on how the business operates.
The organization is at a stage where there is tremendous opportunity to improve processes, leverage technology, and establish more sophisticated accounting practices. Rather than stepping into a highly structured environment with multiple layers of management, this individual will have the freedom to identify opportunities, implement solutions, and help shape the future of the accounting function.
This role is primarily remote, with occasional onsite collaboration days. Must be local to the Greater Minneapolis-Saint Paul area to be considered.

You’ll work directly with an experienced international tax leader and partner with tax colleagues around the world. There’s a real opportunity to grow here, especially if you’ve already done hands-on planning work and are ready to take the lead on more complex projects.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys building business, navigating complex healthcare organizations, and finding creative ways to turn customer relationships into long-term revenue growth.
We’ve partnered with a family-owned, debt-free carbon flat roll steel company to find an outside sales rep for the Dallas area. They’ve never had a layoff, and they focus on one thing: hot rolled and pickled sheet, with more inventory on hand than the competition and delivery in a day or two, not a week or two.
This is a true run-your-own-territory seat. You’ll spend three days a week in front of customers and two working from your home office. Management acts as a resource, not a babysitter. They’ll hunt down steel, jump on customer calls and back you up, but they won’t micromanage. You’ll get a list of prospect names to call, and you’ll do best if you already have Texas relationships and a book you can bring with you.
Compensation is a strong base + uncapped commission based on every ton you sell, paid quarterly. You’ll also get a car allowance, phone, computer, health insurance and a 401(k) match.
