About the Client
A fast-growing, family-office-backed education platform built through an acquisition roll-up strategy — acquiring well-established, independently owned schools and integrating them onto one operating platform — is looking for an Accounting Manager to take full ownership of its accounting function as the business scales.
The company currently operates 11 locations and is targeting roughly 50 within three years, with revenue scaling from approximately $20M today toward $60M+ over the next two years. The finance function is being built for long-term growth and an eventual sale,



giving this role real strategic weight beyond day-to-day bookkeeping.
About the Role
The accounting function relies on two fractional, outsourced resources who only get the books 60–80% of the way closed each cycle. This role exists to fix that: one dedicated, full-time owner who takes the close from 80% to 100%, brings structure to vendor and payables management, and builds the systems the organization needs as it multiplies in size. You'll shadow the Director of Finance and Accounting through the close in your first 30 days, then run it independently. Success means owning a 5–7 day close cycle, becoming the primary point of contact for vendor and payment questions, and delivering a systems and process-improvement roadmap within your first 90 days.
Core Responsibilities
Full-Cycle Accounting & Month-End Close
Own the full month-end close process end to end, targeting a 5–7 day close timeline.
