The posting, as Mural Group wrote it

Type: Permanent · Full time

A marine services company with project-based operations is adding a senior accountant to support its Controller as it grows.

What you'll do

• Handle GL work and month-end and year-end close
• Reconcile accounts and analyze variances against budget and forecast
• Track job cost and WIP across active projects
• Keep fixed asset records for vessels and capital equipment
• Support AP and AR, and account for payroll, including labor distribution and union costs
• Prepare audit and regulatory documentation, reporting to the Controller and working closely with operations and senior leadership

What you bring

• Active CPA license (required)
• 5+ years of progressive accounting, ideally starting with 2–3 years in public accounting before moving to industry
• A stable work history with solid tenure at each employer
• Job costing or project accounting from construction, maritime, manufacturing or any business that tracks cost by job or contract
• Advanced Excel: lookups, conditional formulas, pivot tables
• Able to work fully in office in Cleveland; no remote or hybrid option
