Chive Media Group is seeking an experienced Staff Accountant who absolutely LIVES FOR responsibility and accountability and can spot something out of whack with one pass. Let's just say: You're the clean roommate. You're the type to cut your sandwiches diagonally. You even notice the dirty knife before you use it.

You're a proven master of Accounts...accounts receivable, accounts payable, account reconciliations, account...you get the picture. You should understand how to manage an entire business unit, as well as work cross-functionally within the business unit. You work tactically and strategically, yet have the flexibility to adapt to an ever changing environment. If this sounds like you and you have the ability to go vertical — top to bottom, in terms of complexity — yet still love (and have the ability) to get your hands dirty in the accounting marshes, this is your job.
