Accounting manager improving cash flow and month-end close through automation and analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accounting professional with 4+ years of experience leading multi-entity accounting operations, including full month-end close, revenue-cycle management, and intercompany accounting. In my current role as Accounting Manager at eMazzanti Technologies, I manage and develop a team of 3–5 associates while strengthening cash flow and delivering a 25%+ gain in AR collections through structured billing controls and collection processes.
I oversee accounting operations for a parent company and 5+ subsidiaries—maintaining reconciliations, eliminations, consolidated reporting, and executive-level financial reporting with GAAP compliance. I also automate billing workflows and standardize SOP-led cycles, achieving 65%+ operational efficiency gains, while owning revenue performance analytics and KPI tracking to inform forecasting, pipeline optimization, pricing, and growth strategies.
I’ve expanded my scope through CFO Advisory work with Wiss & Co. and seasonal tax preparation with VITA IRS, strengthening my ability to produce compliant financial statements and handle reporting details with diligence. I’m actively pursuing CPA certification and bring hands-on expertise across QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Excel Power Query.
