Job Description

Insight Global is seeking a Senior Accountant/Accounting Advisor to support complex accounting activities related to the accurate and timely close of the general ledger. This individual will own and support month-end close activities, account reconciliations, variance analysis, technical accounting research, and forecasting while partnering cross-functionally across the business.

The ideal candidate has a strong corporate accounting foundation and can go beyond preparing entries to research accounting issues, understand financial drivers, explain variances, and support forward-looking forecasting activities.

Key Responsibilities

Support the month-end close process and ensure timely and accurate financial reporting

Prepare and post journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations

Review general ledger accounts and investigate discrepancies or unusual activity

Analyze revenue and expense results and provide clear variance explanations

Perform technical accounting research and document conclusions through accounting memos

Ensure account balances comply with GAAP, SOX, and internal control requirements

Support forecasting and strategic outlook processes

Partner with Finance and business teams to understand forecast assumptions and financial impacts

Assist with fixed assets, lease/contract reviews, and budget variance analysis

Lead or contribute to process improvement, compliance, and accounting initiatives

Review work and provide guidance to junior accounting professionals

Ideal Candidate Profile

Senior Accountant-level candidate with roughly 5+ years of progressive accounting experience

Strong hands-on corporate accounting foundation rather than someone primarily focused on FP&A

Comfortable independently owning pieces of the close process

Able to research and explain the “why” behind accounting results, not simply process transactions

Strong combination of technical accounting + variance analysis + forecasting

Public accounting or large-company experience is especially valuable
