Overview

A Senior Technical Accountant position is available within the Accounting Policy & Controls team. This role focuses on applying U.S. GAAP to complex, non-routine transactions and influencing accounting decisions across the organization. The work involves research, judgment, and collaboration rather than routine accounting tasks.

Responsibilities

• Research and interpret U.S. GAAP, including revenue recognition and leases, to support complex accounting decisions
• Analyze non-routine transactions and determine appropriate accounting treatment
• Draft and contribute to technical accounting memos and formal documentation
• Collaborate with finance, legal, tax, and other teams to assess accounting implications of new initiatives
• Serve as a key contact during external audits, coordinating requests and supporting documentation
• Support financial reporting, including disclosures and technical accounting positions
• Develop and maintain accounting policies to ensure consistent application
• Identify control gaps and help strengthen accounting processes and frameworks

• Proven experience applying accounting standards to complex or non-routine transactions
• Experience drafting or significantly contributing to technical accounting memos or formal documentation
• Career progression from audit or operational accounting into technical accounting, policy, or advisory roles
• Strong analytical skills and sound professional judgment
• Effective communication skills with the ability to translate technical guidance into clear recommendations
• Self-starter comfortable working autonomously in an unstructured environment

Note: This role requires hands-on experience with complex U.S. GAAP applications, not routine month-end close, journal entries, or audit delivery.

Compensation & Benefits

• Expected salary range: US $90,000–$110,000 per year (subject to adjustment based on experience, education, location, and other factors)
• Eligibility for an annual incentive bonus
