Senior Accounting Analyst 

Job description
Job role consists mainly of control over balances of assigned general ledger accounts, ensuring that transactions booked to these accounts either by various systems (more than 90% of all accounting entries flows automatically via systems) or manually by accountants are correct and in line with US GAAP and IBM guidance.

During the month, accounting analyst focuses on detailed analysis of prior month closing balances on assigned accounts, validating balances by comparing them to documentation, system reports or calculations.
