ABOUT THE POSITION

This is a full-time Junior Accountant role supporting our Accounting and Finance team.

You'll work closely with our Controller and broader Finance team on bookkeeping, financial analysis, reporting, ERP automation, and process improvement initiatives. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a strong foundation in accounting while gaining exposure to modern finance systems and helping improve how our Finance team operates.

We're looking for someone who can commit to a full-time schedule (37.5 hours per week) during regular business hours. While the role offers flexibility and is primarily remote, we value consistency, reliability, and collaboration with the team.
