THE FOCUS IS YOU:A Senior Accountant is newly in a position of advanced technical aptitude and supervisory responsibilities. A Senior must be able to handle more complex assignments than the staff, begin to learn the complete process of managing all tasks regarding client work, and take a lead role in developing/reviewing the work of less experienced staff. The Senior role is the bridge between the staff, who are executing the client-service related tasks, and the management, who are strategizing and overseeing successful completion of efficient engagement activity and top-quality client service. The Senior needs to be the liaison to management, and therefore needs to develop a broader scope of the business into a supervisory role. During this time, the Senior is expected to develop confidence with his/her role, to become fully acclimated to a supervisory position, where he/she may be in charge of the day-to-day activity on multiple engagements and/or supervising multiple team members. The Senior increasingly needs to be able to perform the most complex technical tasks of the engagement and work more and more with less supervision. Finally, to adequately prepare for manager responsibilities, the Senior needs to explore opportunities amongst various industries over time and then narrow down their industry focus.WHAT YOU WILL DORegular duties include (but are not limited to):Perform and assist with audits, reviews and compilations for clients in various industriesPrepare and analyze financial statements and evaluate internal controlsAssist with the coordination of the day-to-day duties of planning, fieldwork and wrap-upDeep understanding of accounting and reporting standardsDevelop reasonable time budgets and coordinate audit requests to meet time constraints and client deadlinesInteract with clients to help ensure the information flow from the client to the audit team is efficientCommunicate with Manager and/or Director on work status and client issues that ariseWHAT WE ARE LOOKING FORExperience4-6 years in relevant positionPublic accounting or other professional services environment preferredPrior experience testing controls and/or SOX experiencePublic accounting experience auditing a publicly traded companyKorean proficiency requiredEducationMinimum Bachelor’s degree or equivalent technology experienceBachelor’s in Accounting (for Audit or Tax)License / CertificationMust progress professionally by obtaining relevant certification as soon as possible if certification is not already attained in order to advanceMust maintain required CPE credits annuallyLegal / ComplianceMust complete acknowledgement of Independence Guidelines and Ethical Standards documentGovernment engagements require ability to obtain a security clearance from the United States governmentWHO WE AREREADY TO DELIVERWe take pride in our ability to combine local knowledge with national, regional, and international skills to provide you and your organization with the best resources possible.
