Staff Accountant

  • Job Tag: #LI-CR1
  • Posted: April 02,2026

I’m excited to be partnering with a hiring manager I’ve known for over 15 years (!!!) to add a Staff Accountant to his team at a privately held manufacturing company in the Twin Cities.

This is not a “plug-and-play” accounting role.

He’s actively rebuilding the function and is looking for someone who wants to roll up their sleeves, take ownership, and be part of elevating the team. I’ve worked with him both personally and professionally, and he’s someone who will invest in the right person while also pushing them to grow.
