Company Information
Navigator Recruiting client is a fast-paced, growing, international, stable $150M manufacturer and distibutor in the video/broadband industry headquartered in the south Denver Metro area, in Centennial, CO. The company’s senior leadership team has been together for many years (most of them having left a large successful enterprise to start this company in 2008). The firm's culture has an informal "family-feel." There is excellent tenure amongst employees. Employees are respected and responsible self-starters. Micro-managing and meetings for the sake of having meetings do not exist here. In 17 years, this client has steadily grown from 5 employees to 34. Growth is attributed to new clients and new markets, products selling well, and further growth. Most sales are still from customers in the U.S. and Canada, however the Latin American market has been rapidly growing and Europe is up-and-coming. The lean Accounting & Finance Department is currently made up of three individuals, all with excellent tenure with the company: the CFO - a company founder w/17 years' experience at the company and focused on strategy; the Accounting Manager - w/6 years' experience at the company and focused on GL, the monthly close and some analysis; and the Accounting Clerk - w/15 years' experience at the company and focused on invoicing, cash receipts, journal entries, AR, collections and bank transactions. This role would report to the CFO and is being created due to a need for more reporting and analysis and also for someone to provide a back-up for the Accounting Clerk when on vacation or possibly even for the CFO, when on vacation. Ideally, this client would like to hire an experienced Financial Analyst with strong accounting experience who is business-minded and who is capable of seeing the “Big Picture” and who wants to become more involved in the operations and analysis. This is a permanent part-time salaried position with full benefits. The excellent benefits include major medical insurance (company pays 100% of employee monthly premium), dental, life, vision, pre-tax health, 401k match and vacation. The hours for this position are 30 hours/week. The company strives for work/life balance for its employees and the company is flexible on whether someone wants to work in a hybrid arrangement, from home 1-2 days/week (probably after getting acclimated into the job).
