📋 Description

• Ensure high-quality, consistent client delivery across an assigned team of CPG-focused Client Leads and staff by enabling, coaching, and coordinating their work. • Be accountable for team effectiveness across a portfolio of consumer packaged goods clients — not just individual client outcomes. • Coach Client Leads on solution design, client management, delivery approach, and professional judgment across CPG engagements. • Review CPG client engagement approaches for technical risk, complexity — particularly around trade promotion accounting, inventory, and multi-channel revenue — or inconsistency with firm standards. • Serve as the first escalation point for delivery challenges, CPG-specific technical questions, and team capacity problems. • Ensure all work produced by the team meets Graphite’s quality standards before it reaches clients. • Conduct formal performance reviews and ongoing career development conversations with direct reports. • Identify CPG accounting capability gaps within the team and address them through coaching, targeted training, or resourcing decisions. • Balance workload across Client Leads and adjust resourcing to manage close peaks, seasonal CPG demand cycles, and coverage risks. • Maintain a purposefully limited personal CPG-focused client book. • Partner with Standards and Technology teams to translate firm-wide standards into practical, CPG-ready execution within your team.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required; CPA required • 7–10 years of accounting experience including at least 2 years in a client lead, manager, or team leadership role; public accounting (Manager level) or outsourced accounting leadership experience strongly preferred • Demonstrated CPG accounting experience — this is a firm requirement. Candidates must be able to speak specifically to trade promotion accounting, inventory reconciliation, landed cost, and multi-channel COGS in a CPG context • Familiarity with CPG-specific platforms and operational systems including QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Cin7, Shopify, and 3PL management systems preferred • Deep working knowledge of GAAP with direct experience navigating startup-specific accounting complexity: SAFEs, convertible instruments, ASC 606, equity compensation, and more • Demonstrated ability to manage a team and a client portfolio simultaneously without sacrificing quality on either • Strong coaching and feedback skills — you have developed junior accounting professionals before and take that responsibility seriously • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; executive presence in client-facing situations • Experience working in a remote professional services environment is strongly preferred.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage. 100% of the employee's health insurance premium is covered by the company. • Company-paid Short-Term and Long-Term Disability insurance. • Generous Unlimited Paid Time Off (PTO), 11 Paid Company Holidays, and comprehensive Paid Parental Leave. • Fully remote position with company-provided technology equipment and a $250 technology stipend to support your ideal home office setup. • 401k with a company match
