About the Role

We are seeking a Director of General Ledger Accounting to lead the general ledger function and own the month-end close process. This role will ensure accurate, timely financial results, oversee accounting processes within NetSuite, and coordinate across all accounting workstreams to deliver a complete and well-controlled close.

The ideal candidate combines strong technical accounting knowledge, hands-on NetSuite experience, and the ability to lead teams, resolve complex issues, and improve processes as the business grows.

Key Responsibilities

- Own the month-end close: Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual GL close activities, including the close calendar, deliverables, dependencies, review procedures, and issue resolution.

- Oversee general ledger integrity: Review journal entries, accruals, account reconciliations, and supporting schedules. Ensure balances are accurate, supported, and recorded in the appropriate period.

- Coordinate all accounting workstreams: Partner with accounts payable, revenue and accounts receivable, payroll, equity, fixed assets, leases, intercompany, treasury, and tax teams to ensure timely inputs, clear ownership, and consistent accounting treatment.

- Lead NetSuite accounting processes: Serve as the accounting lead for NetSuite, partnering with systems teams on workflows, chart of accounts governance, reporting, integrations, and system enhancements. Oversee period-close procedures and controls over GL data.

- Review financial results: Lead balance sheet and income statement fluctuation reviews, investigate unusual activity, and communicate key drivers and unresolved issues to accounting leadership and FP&A.

- Strengthen controls and documentation: Establish and maintain accounting policies, close procedures, reconciliation standards, and review controls. Drive timely resolution of reconciling items and control deficiencies.

- Support financial reporting and audits: Deliver accurate trial balances and supporting schedules, coordinate audit requests across accounting workstreams, and resolve audit findings.

- Improve efficiency and scalability: Identify opportunities to automate journal entries, reconciliations, and reporting; reduce manual work; and shorten the close while maintaining accuracy.

- Develop the team: Lead and coach the GL accounting team, set clear expectations, balance workloads, and build accountability for quality and deadlines.

- Support business changes: Assess the GL and close implications of new entities, transactions, systems, and business initiatives, coordinating implementation across relevant teams.

Qualifications

- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA preferred..

- 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 4+ years managing teams and leading the financial close.

- Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP, general ledger accounting, reconciliations, and internal controls.

- Hands-on NetSuite experience, including close management, financial reporting, and accounting process improvements.

- Demonstrated ability to coordinate multiple accounting workstreams, manage dependencies, and resolve issues under tight deadlines.

- Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to explain accounting issues clearly to finance and business partners.

- Experience with multi-entity accounting, intercompany transactions, and consolidation preferred.

What Success Looks Like

A predictable, timely close; accurate and well-supported GL balances; clear accountability across accounting workstreams; effective use of NetSuite; and a team that continually improves the quality and efficiency of financial reporting.

WHY FIREWORKS?

- Solve Hard Problems: Tackle challenges at the forefront of AI infrastructure, from low-latency inference to scalable model serving.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
