Senior Corporate Accountant

Vireo Health•Minneapolis, MN

8d•$75,000 - $85,000

About The Position

We are seeking an elite, high-velocity Senior Corporate Accountant who thrives in a rigorous, performance-driven environment. This is not a "maintenance" role; it is for a proactive professional who takes extreme ownership of the general ledger and demands excellence in every work product. You are expected to master complex lease, fixed asset, and general corporate accounting workstreams while maintaining a relentless bias for action. We want a builder who works tirelessly to elevate the accounting function and ensures our financial reporting is bulletproof. This role reports to the Senior Accounting Manager.

Requirements

The "Builder" Mindset: Prefers creating systems and SOPs over simply following a checklist.
Technical Depth: Strong understanding of SEC reporting requirements and PCAOB standards.
Experience: 6+ years in a mix of Big 4 audit and corporate accounting/SOX roles within an acquisitive environment.

Responsibilities

GRC Implementation: Lead the selection and rollout of SOX management software (e.g., AuditBoard, Workiva) or architect a scalable "Evidence Vault" (SharePoint/Teams) with standardized naming and folder conventions.
Infrastructure Design: Create the organizational "Playbook" for how evidence is captured, stored, and retrieved across all business units to ensure 365-day audit readiness.
Automation Strategy: Partner with IT to move from manual, spreadsheet-heavy tasks to automated system configurations within the ERP, reducing the internal testing burden.
Process Engineering: Work alongside accounting teams to "bake in" controls to new workflows rather than auditing them after the fact.
Acquisition Onboarding: Perform Day-1 gap analyses on new entities; immediately implement the corporate SOX framework and standardized systems into their operations.
Project Management: Lead the organization’s adherence to compliance timelines, serving as a consultant to department heads (HR, IT, Sales) on how to meet their control obligations.
Technical Sounding Board: Serve as a key resource for the Controller and CAO to evaluate how operational changes, new GAAP interpretations, or complex transactions (e.g., Revenue Rec, Equity) impact the control environment.
Disclosure Controls: Ensure all sub-ledger processes and manual adjustments map accurately to 10-K/10-Q disclosure requirements.
Materiality & Scoping: Define and defend the quantitative and qualitative materiality thresholds used for SEC reporting and audit scoping.
Audit Liaison: Act as the primary point of contact for external auditors, managing the relationship to ensure alignment on testing strategy, materiality, and deficiency impact.
Root Cause Analysis: When a control fails, don't just "report" it—partner with the team to redesign the process and prevent recurrence.
Reporting: Provide the Controller and Audit Committee with high-level visibility into compliance health, integration status, and technical risk areas.
