About the role

Job Title: Corporate Accounting Manager
Location: Remote (US based, East Coast hours)
Industry: Professional Services
Compensation: $115K to $130K base plus annual bonus and a strong benefits package
The Opportunity: Synergy Search is conducting a search for a Corporate Accounting Manager on behalf of a private equity backed professional services firm with a global footprint. You will own the general ledger and month end close for a multi entity, international organization and lead an accounting team that spans the US and abroad. If you are a hands on leader who likes running a tight close, building a strong team, and seeing your work make a visible difference, this is the seat. Why This Role Stands Out
  • Remote with strong benefits. Work from anywhere in the US, with flexible PTO, a strong 401(k) match, paid parental leave, and company paid life and disability coverage.
  • Real leadership. Lead an established team that is expected to grow as the business scales.
  • Global scope. Consolidations, intercompany and foreign currency across an international entity structure.
  • Growth backing. Private equity support and an active acquisition strategy keep the work interesting.
  • A team that promotes from within. Strong performers here move up, and leadership invests in their people.
  • Visible impact. Your close and reporting feed directly into what senior leadership sees every month. What You Will Own
  • Run the month end close for US and international entities and hit deadlines every month
  • Own the consolidation, including eliminations, intercompany and foreign currency translation
  • Review balance sheet reconciliations across a large, multi entity chart of accounts
  • Deliver US GAAP financials, management reporting and month over month analysis
  • Lead, coach and review the work of senior accountants in the US and abroad
  • Serve as the general ledger point of contact for the annual audit
  • Weigh in on technical accounting topics and new standards
  • Bring newly acquired entities into the close
  • Strengthen workflows and controls as the company grows What You Need
  • Hands on ownership of international, multi entity consolidations (eliminations, intercompany, foreign currency)
  • Industry accounting experience; not coming straight out of public accounting
  • Several years of people management with multiple direct reports
  • Month end close ownership as a manager who still works in the details
  • 7 to 15+ years of progressive accounting experience What Sets You Apart
  • CPA
  • Public accounting foundation followed by industry experience
  • Experience leading offshore or distributed team members
  • Technical accounting exposure, such as lease accounting
  • Background at a private equity backed company
  • Acquisition integration experience
  • Experience with a project based ERP is a plus. Good to Know
  • Fully remote, US based, working East Coast hours

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
