ABOUT THE ROLE

We are hiring a Senior Financial Analyst to own full-cycle accounting operations end-to-end. This is not a support role — it is an ownership role. You will run the month-end close, maintain balance sheet integrity, and operate within a high-growth, acquisition-driven environment where accuracy, speed, and initiative matter equally.

Banyan Software company encourages applications from all qualified individuals. Applicants with disabilities may notify us of any accommodations needed to support your participation in the recruitment process. We wish to thank all applicants for their interest and effort in applying.
