labor/service-sector-related industry*. This position is responsible for
the administrative, financial, and risk management operations of the
company, to include the development of a financial and operational
strategy, metrics
<http://www.accountingtools.com/articles-summary-metrics/> tied
to that strategy, and the ongoing development and monitoring of control
systems designed to preserve company assets

Specifically:
· Strategic planning with a *hands-on* approach to implementing,
monitoring and directing tactical financial initiatives; developing
performance measurements that support the company's strategic direction.
· Working with complex pricing models.
· Managing the accounting function – accounts payable, receivable
and payroll functions, as well as supervising other financial
accountabilities – i.e., cash monitoring (daily), payroll (biweekly),
general ledger review (monthly), Payroll/Sales tax preparation and filing,
journal entries, invoicing, bank reconciliations and fixed asset records
for *timeliness, accuracy and completeness. *
· Assuming ownership for implementing, managing, and monitoring
internal controls.

insurance coverage with a particular emphasis on maximizing a
cost-effective benefits package.

requirements.

<http://www.accountingtools.com/definition-auditor> and government
agencies.

- Overseeing the annual preparation of data for outside auditors
(financial and tax preparation) and investigating their findings and
recommendations.
- Monitoring cash <http://www.accountingtools.com/definition-cash> balances
and cash forecasts.
- Representing the company with investment bankers and investors
<http://www.accountingtools.com/definition-investor> (e.g.,
participating in conference calls with the investment community).
- Championing and executing changes necessary to ensure increased
financial stability and profitability.

Qualifications for this position include:
· Bachelor's degree (preferably in Accounting); master's degree
(accounting or business administration) and/or CPA or CMA certifications
would be a plus.
· 10+ years of progressively responsible experience in
accounting/finance – *at least half of which must be in a
labor/service-sector-related industry. *
