Our Values and Leadership Behaviors

About the Role

The Senior Manager, Accounting Operations Transformation is the execution engine behind the accounting transformation agenda. Where the Director sets strategy and organizational direction, you make it happen. You will own the day-to-day delivery of process improvements, system initiatives, and operational changes across the accounting organization, ensuring that what gets designed actually gets built, adopted, and sustained.

This role serves as the accounting lead on business initiatives from start to finish. You will be brought in early to define accounting requirements, lead user acceptance testing, manage the implementation, and own the stabilization period for several months post go-live. Once the initiative is fully embedded and operating as business as usual, you will transition ownership to the appropriate team and move to the next priority. The ability to drive a clean handoff, without things falling apart after you step back, is a defining measure of success in this role.

This role reports to the Director, Accounting Operations Transformation and works closely with Finance, IT, and Business Operations. You will be the person who goes deep on the details, understands how the close actually works, knows where the process breaks down, and builds the fixes that hold. This is a hands-on, high-accountability role for someone who takes pride in flawless execution and finishing what they start.
