About the Role

We are hiring an Accounting Manager to own the general ledger and month-end close for Takanock. Reporting to Corporate Finance, you will run day-to-day accounting operations and ensure our books are accurate, timely, and audit-ready. This is a hands-on role for someone who likes to own the close and build clean process, not just review it.

What You'll Do

• Maintain the general ledger and chart of accounts; ensure transactions are recorded accurately and in accordance with US GAAP.
• Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations and supporting schedules.
• Record and reconcile project and construction-related costs in coordination with project controls and accounts payable.
• Support cash management, intercompany activity, and treasury reconciliations.
• Partner with external auditors and provide clean, well-organized support for audits.
• Serve as the in-house counterpart to our outsourced accounting-services and internal-audit partners; own PBC schedules and coordinate responses to auditor requests.
• Ensure cost categorization and documentation withstand external financial-statement, construction, and counterparty (customer) audit under the project's open-book agreements.
• Help build and document scalable accounting policies, controls, and procedures as the company grows.
• Supervise and mentor accounts payable, and collaborate across FP&A, treasury, and strategic finance.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including ownership of the close.
• Strong working knowledge of US GAAP.
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA track preferred.
• Hands-on Workday ERP experience and strong Excel skills.
• Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable owning process end to end in a fast-moving environment.
• Experience with construction, energy, infrastructure, or project-based accounting is a plus.
