The Role
The finance team at Sears is expanding, and we want an Accountant who treats Power BI as second nature. The $51,000 - $79,000 is the floor, not the ceiling; with 5 years and finance ownership, this Sears role keeps rising.
Key Responsibilities
- Maintain the chart of accounts and ensure consistent coding
- Stand up the Excel close calendar and hold every owner to it
- Build the $51,000 - $79,000 budget line and defend each assumption behind it
- Turn raw ledgers into forecasts the finance team can actually plan against
- Reconcile merchant fees against statements that never quite match
- Run the part-time close for a mid-level ledger you fully own
- Lead the Sears audit preparation and serve as primary contact for external auditors
- Build the mid-level analyst's first reconciliation checklist from scratch
What You'll Bring
- Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
- Comfortable presenting ideas to stakeholders at every level
- Enough Excel to be dangerous, enough CMA Certification to be trusted
- Working familiarity with part-time schedules and team norms at Sears
- Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes
Somewhere between a startup and an institution, Sears has spent years perfecting Tableau for clients all over Fort Smith, AR. We give mid-level hires room to fail small so they can later succeed big on finance work.
On top of $51,000 - $79,000, we cover your health premiums, fund your certifications, and pair you with a seasoned mentor.
Right now Sears is mid-search, and the Accountant chair is yours to claim.
If you can picture yourself owning the Accountant work here, picture it harder and apply.
