District Partners has been retained to find an ambitious Senior Accountant for a well-established, family-owned business in the greater Richmond area.

Don't let "family-owned" fool you into thinking this is a small operation! Our client has been in business for over 100 years, has built a nationally recognized brand, and employs more than 1,000 people across multiple states.

This is an opportunity for an up-and-coming Accountant who wants to do more than just close the books. You'll join a talented, growing Accounting team, gain exposure to a complex multi-entity business, and play an active role in process improvements and future systems implementations.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who wants to grow into leadership. You'll work closely with experienced Accounting leaders, develop a deeper understanding of the business, and build the skills needed to eventually manage a team of your own.

This is an on-site opportunity, which means you'll have regular face-to-face access to leadership, the ability to collaborate directly with colleagues across the business, and greater visibility as you position yourself for future advancement.

What You'll Be Owning:

• Play a key role in month-end and year-end close activities across multiple entities and business locations
• Prepare journal entries, account reconciliations, and supporting financial schedules
• Manage general ledger activities, including fixed assets, accruals, and other balance sheet accounts
• Partner with Accounting leadership to improve processes, strengthen controls, and streamline reporting
• Participate in future accounting systems enhancements and implementations
• Collaborate with colleagues across Finance, Operations, and other departments to solve problems and support business decisions
• Take on increasing responsibility as you develop toward future Accounting leadership opportunities

What You'll Bring to the Table:

• 3–5+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally with exposure to a multi-entity or multi-location business
• Strong hands-on experience with month-end close, journal entries, and balance sheet reconciliations
• Advanced Excel skills and experience working with accounting or ERP systems
• Someone who can manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and maintain accuracy in a fast-paced environment
• A proactive, curious Accountant who enjoys solving problems and finding better ways to get things done
• Leadership potential! We're looking for someone who wants to take the next step in their career and eventually manage others
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field preferred
• CPA is a plus, but absolutely not required

Why This Role?

• $75,000–$90,000 salary range
• Join a stable, successful company with over a century of history
• Gain exposure to a sizable, multi-state business with more accounting complexity than your typical small company
• Work directly with Accounting leadership and gain the visibility and mentorship that can accelerate your professional development
• Help shape how the Accounting team operates through process improvements and technology initiatives
• Build a foundation for future advancement into Accounting management
