A public, high-growth biotech company in the greater Florham Park, NJ area is seeking a hands-on Director of Accounting to support global operations in a fast-paced, highly analytical environment.

Responsibilities include leading the month-end and quarter-end close process and global consolidations across multiple entities, overseeing balance sheet and cash flow reporting, and supporting SEC filings (10-Q/10-K). The Director of Accounting will also own cash forecasting, SOX compliance, audit coordination, and key areas such as inventory, COGS, and CRO-related accruals.

This is a high-impact opportunity for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and wants meaningful exposure to both operational and strategic finance.
