Company Overview:  

Cerro Flow Products LLC, part of Marmon Holdings, a Berkshire Hathaway company, is a global industrial organization committed to operating with integrity, accuracy, and accountability. We recognize the critical role accounting and financial processes play in supporting business operations and are committed to developing early-career talent through structured, hands-on learning opportunities. 

Opportunity 

In partnership with state and federally funded workforce development programs, we are offering a six-month, paid On-the-Job Training opportunity for an Accounting Assistant. This temporary, non-permanent role is designed to provide practical experience in a professional accounting environment while supporting the development of foundational financial and business skills. 

This opportunity is ideal for individuals early in their career who are interested in accounting, finance, or business operations and who are seeking real-world experience to complement their education or career goals. Participants will work alongside experienced accounting and finance professionals and gain exposure to day-to-day financial processes within a manufacturing organization. 

Under close supervision, the Accounting Assistant will support routine accounting and administrative functions. Responsibilities may include: 

  • Assisting with data entry and record maintenance, supporting accounts payable and accounts receivable activities. 

  • Assisting with invoice processing and documentation, supporting basic reconciliations, and helping prepare reports or financial schedules.  

  • Participants may also assist with filing, audit preparation support, and coordination with other departments to ensure accurate and timely financial information. 

The role requires strong attention to detail, accuracy, and the ability to work with numerical data. Participants will be expected to follow established accounting procedures, maintain confidentiality, meet deadlines, and communicate professionally with internal stakeholders. Coursework or interest in accounting, finance, business, or a related field is beneficial for success in this role. 

Throughout the program, participants will develop skills in accounting fundamentals, data integrity, documentation standards, and professional workplace communication. The role provides exposure to financial systems, internal controls, compliance awareness, and the importance of accuracy in financial reporting. 

Upon completion of the six-month On-the-Job Training program, participants will leave with relevant accounting experience, strengthened analytical and administrative skill sets, and increased readiness for future roles in accounting, finance, or business operations. This position does not guarantee continued employment; however, the experience gained is intended to support long-term career development. 

This position is offered through a workforce development program and includes specific eligibility requirements as defined by the program partner. Eligibility will be confirmed prior to hire. The role is based on-site in a professional office environment and follows a full-time schedule for the duration of the program
