Senior Accountant

Location: Remote (US based)

Industry: Professional Services

Compensation: $95K to $100K base plus a strong benefits package

The Opportunity: Synergy Search is conducting a search for a Senior Accountant, International Audit and Tax Compliance on behalf of a private equity backed professional services firm with a global footprint. This is a corporate seat built for an auditor: you will lead the internal side of statutory audits for international subsidiaries and help own indirect tax compliance. If you enjoy audit work but are ready to trade the busy season grind for a corporate role with real global exposure, this is the seat. Why This Role Stands Out

• Audit skills, corporate life. Keep doing the work you are good at without the 60 hour public accounting weeks.
• Global exposure. Partner with local audit firms across international subsidiaries and get hands on with IFRS and foreign currency.
• Broad scope. A blend of statutory audit, indirect tax and corporate income tax work alongside an outside tax advisor.
• Direct line to leadership. Report straight to the Corporate Controller.
• Room to grow. A clear path to own the full international audit process, including setting it up for newly acquired companies.
• Remote with strong benefits. Work from anywhere in the US, with flexible PTO, a strong 401(k) match, paid parental leave, and paid professional memberships and training. What You Will Own
• Act as the internal lead on annual statutory audits of international subsidiaries
• Build the audit schedules, reconciliations and support local audit firms request
• Track down and rebuild support for prior period entries and statutory adjustments
• Prepare and reconcile indirect tax filings, including US sales and use tax, VAT and GST
• Keep the compliance calendar current and every filing on time
• Tie tax accounts to the general ledger and clear any differences
• Support corporate income tax and provision work with the outside advisor
• Streamline processes as new entities join the company What You Need
• Audit background, either external audit at a CPA firm or financial internal audit
• 3 to 7+ years of accounting experience with audit at the core
• A real interest in audit and compliance work as a long term focus
• Comfort rebuilding support when the answer is not sitting in the system
• Strong Excel skills for building audit schedules and reconciliations What Sets You Apart
• Experience auditing international clients or standalone subsidiaries
• CPA, or actively pursuing
• Indirect tax experience (sales and use, VAT, GST)
• Corporate income tax provision exposure
• IFRS, local GAAP or foreign currency experience is a plus. Good to Know
