Accounting Manager Candidate

Loglass provides a cloud management system for corporate management and budget-versus-actual management. The accounting team supports the company’s expanding corporate operations and currently consists of one CFO, one full-time employee, and one non-regular employee, working with an external tax accountant.

The manager candidate will handle day-to-day accounting and lead the team’s work. Responsibilities include monthly, quarterly, and annual closing; payment and cash management; tax filing, with some work outsourced to an external tax accountant; development and operation of accounting rules in coordination with business divisions; and communication with audit firms, including selection, operational design, and implementation. The role also covers tax adviser coordination, preparation of management and meeting materials, budget-versus-actual management, and discussions with business divisions. As the organization grows and depending on the candidate’s interests, investor relations work in cooperation with the CFO may also be assigned.

The role may involve discussions about how accounting data should be processed in the company’s own product. It may also include joining customer meetings with the sales team, explaining ways for customer accounting personnel to operate Loglass management software, and hearing their operational issues directly.

Required qualifications include at least seven years of practical accounting experience, accounting experience at an operating company, experience designing, improving, and stably operating processes using a cloud-based accounting system, experience working with an audit firm, and experience leading a team while driving problem resolution and operational improvements.
