Position Summary

Rimkus is seeking an experienced Manager, General Ledger & Corporate Accounting to join our Corporate Accounting organization in Houston. This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role with responsibility for core general ledger accounting, financial close, balance sheet integrity, and the continued development of our accounting processes and controls.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a private equity-backed, global professional services organization during a period of growth and transformation. Beyond owning the day-to-day accounting, the GL Manager will gain exposure to a broad range of strategic finance and accounting initiatives, including ERP transformation, process automation, acquisition integration, financial reporting, audit, internal controls, and other cross-functional projects.

The role will work closely with and receive direct mentorship from senior Accounting and Finance leadership, providing an opportunity to broaden both technical and leadership capabilities and gain exposure well beyond a traditional general ledger role.
