[Hiring] Manager - Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) - Outsourced Accounting & Finance @EisnerAmper

Role Description

At EisnerAmper, we look for individuals who welcome new ideas, encourage innovation, and are eager to make an impact. This is a mid-senior role for an experienced accounting professional who has moved beyond execution and is ready to own quality and mentor others — without yet carrying the full client relationship and close leadership of a Controller.

• Support the month-end close process across multiple CPG client engagements — prepare journal entries and schedules.
• Review and provide feedback on the work of Senior and Staff Accountants, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and adherence to client-specific accounting policies.
• Perform and review inventory accounting, including COGS reconciliation, landed cost tracking, purchase order matching, and inventory reserve analysis.
• Review and reconcile trade spend activity — including slotting fees, promotional allowances, co-op advertising, and retailer deductions.
• Review accounts payable, accounts receivable, and vendor/customer subledger reconciliations across multiple sales channels (DTC, Amazon, wholesale).
• Assist in the preparation and review of monthly financial packages, including P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statements with supporting variance commentary.
• Oversee data flows and reconciliations between platforms such as Shopify and Amazon Seller Central and accounting systems (QBO, NetSuite), flagging discrepancies for resolution.
• Help prepare client books for audits, lender reporting, and investor data requests.
• Identify workflow gaps and escalate recommendations for process improvements, chart of accounts structure, and system configurations to the Controller or engagement lead.
• Collaborate with client contacts on purchase order workflows, 3PL reconciliations, and inventory cycle counts.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or related field.
• 8–12 years of progressive accounting experience, with meaningful exposure to CPG, consumer brands, or product-based businesses.
• Prior consulting experience.
• Prior supervisory experience. Demonstrated ability to review and coach the work of Senior and Staff Accountants — catching errors, providing feedback, and raising quality across the team.

Requirements

• Master's in Accounting (MAcc).
• CPA or active CPA candidate.
• Experience supporting venture-backed or early-stage consumer brands.
• Proficiency with e-commerce reconciliation tools such as A2X.
• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, reconciliation templates).
• Excellent communication skills — comfortable translating accounting detail for founders and non-finance stakeholders.
• Ability to manage competing deadlines across a multi-client book of business.
• Solid working knowledge of QuickBooks Online (QBO) and/or NetSuite.
• Experience reconciling Shopify, Amazon, or other e-commerce platforms to the general ledger.
• Familiarity with 3PL reconciliations and inventory management platforms preferred (e.g., Katana, Cin7).
• Working knowledge of inventory accounting methods.
• Comfortable managing competing priorities across multiple clients or entities.

Benefits

• Flexibility to manage your days in support of our commitment to work/life balance.
• Join a culture that has received multiple top “Places to Work” awards.
• Be part of one of the largest and fastest growing accounting and advisory firms in the industry.
• Opportunity to make a lasting impact on the business and its direction.
