Accounting analyst and manager focused on SOX-ready close, reconciliations, and financial risk visibility.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly analytical, detail-oriented accounting professional known for strong communication and the ability to perform under pressure. In my current Sales & Marketing Accounting Ledger Analyst role, I run monthly close activities—preparing and posting journal entries, completing balance sheet reconciliations, and performing variance analysis to improve management visibility into financial risk.
I maintain SOX compliant, audit-ready documentation and support internal and external audit requests. I also manage complex buyback inventory reconciliations at VIN-level detail, prepare quarterly reserve reporting aligned between sub ledgers and the general ledger, and support lease accounting and financial reporting under IFRS 16 with data validation and system-generated analytical reporting in Anaplan.
