LEGACY FRANCHISE SHARED SERVICES LLC
Atlanta, GA
Description:

Were looking for a detail-driven Senior Accountant to own day-to-day transactional accounting across three fast-growing brands: Legacy Franchise Concepts (LFC), Sweathouz, and Dogtopia.

  • Prepare and post journal entries for accruals, prepaids, intercompany activity, and reclasses
  • Maintain detailed supporting schedules and documentation
  • Complete close tasks on time to meet monthly deadlines

Account Reconciliations

  • Reconcile bank accounts, credit cards, and key balance sheet accounts monthly
  • Investigate and resolve variances proactively
  • Deliver clean, audit-ready reconciliations to the Controller

Audit & Internal Controls

  • Assist with audit schedules and external auditor requests
  • Ensure compliance with GAAP and internal accounting policies
  • Support documentation and enforcement of internal controls and SOPs

Process Improvement & Systems

  • Support accounting system efficiency and data quality initiatives
  • Surface recurring issues, bottlenecks, or risks with solutions in mind

What Were Looking For

  • Bachelors degree in Accounting or related field (required)
  • 46 years of progressive accounting experience, including AP/AR
  • Experience leading or mentoring accounting team members
  • Multi-entity or franchise experience preferred
  • CPA or progress toward certification is a plus

Skills & Competencies

  • Strong knowledge of GAAP and accounting operations
  • Exceptional reconciliation, organization, and documentation skills
  • Ability to manage multiple deadlines with precision
  • Systems-savvy and process-oriented
  • Confident communicator and collaborative partner
