Our client, a publicly traded company, is looking for an experienced accounting professional to support its team while the VP of Accounting is on maternity leave. This is a hands-on review role for someone who has worked through a public company 10-Q cycle and can step in with little ramp-up. You'll work closely with the accounting team and the company's third-party consultants to keep the close and quarterly filing on track.

Nice to Have
