What we’re looking for

We're looking for a skilled and proactive Senior Project Accountant to play a key role in leading the successful rollout of NetSuite across multiple business units. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with project managers, finance leads, IT, and external partners to ensure a smooth implementation that aligns with business goals. Acting as a finance subject matter expert, you’ll help define and validate requirements, support change initiatives, and provide vital input on adjacent projects such as CRM integration. You'll take ownership of User Acceptance Testing, overseeing everything from test script development to stakeholder sign-off. Your expertise will also be critical in planning and executing data migration and cutover activities, ensuring accuracy and readiness across finance and non-finance users. 

Post-implementation, you'll lead training efforts, support users through the transition, and help embed new processes effectively. With a continuous improvement mindset, you’ll identify system-driven enhancements, maintain clear documentation, and support the refinement of internal controls and reporting.
