Job Description

Zeroed-In Consulting is a dynamic advisory firm specializing in helping companies and their financial processes navigate an ever-evolving business landscape. Founded in 2021, Zeroed-In employs a future-focused approach to accounting and finance that bridges the gap between business and innovative technologies and helps organizations improve operational efficiency and enable growth. Whether an organization requires outsourced accounting, technical accounting, or audit and transaction readiness, Zeroed-In tackles your most complex and specific accounting and finance needs while staying mindful of any impacts to the rest of the business. The world moves fast, Zeroed-In moves faster.

We are seeking a professional at the Manager level to join our team, to support in client projects, new proposals, and internal initiatives. The role comes with the intent to quickly transition into a lead role on internal and external projects, and so we are looking for someone ready for a challenge and willing to step outside of their comfort zone.

  • Assistance in complex accounting research and documentation

  • Active involvement in period-end close processes

  • Participation in brainstorm sessions for process optimization, including opportunities for automation

  • Participation in learning of data science basics, and involvement in upcoming business intelligence client projects

  • Preparation of memos or supporting files for upcoming client audits and/or transaction diligence reviews

  • Assistance in financial statement preparation

  • Ad-hoc projects as needed

Support internal initiatives for the growth of Zeroed-In, including:

  • Participation in prospective client meetings and preparation of project proposals

  • Assistance in preparation of Zeroed-In thought leadership for social media and other marketing efforts

  • Research and training of the latest topics in the accounting and technology environments

  • Participate in candid brainstorming sessions that will help shape the future of Zeroed-In culture and vision

Compensation

As we search for ways to challenge the status quo, compensation will be based on a hybrid structure of both fixed and variable incentives, with significant upside for high performance. This includes:

  • Competitive base salary, ranging from $100,000 to $110,000

  • Commissions on projects won through your introduction of new clients
