About Perceptyx
At Perceptyx, we're on a mission to help organizations turn employee insights into measurable impact. Our AI-enabled employee experience platform leverages the science of listening, behavioral nudges, and predictive analytics to help clients elevate engagement, retention, and performance. We're a team of innovators fueled by purpose, collaboration, and excellence — and we're looking for someone who wants to play at the highest level.
Senior Accountant
Perceptyx runs on the numbers behind it, and this role is where those numbers get built right. As our Senior Accountant, you'll own the general ledger, monthly close, and balance sheet reconciliations that keep our books accurate and audit-ready for a company serving close to a third of the Fortune 100. You'll dig into the details, catch what's off before it becomes a problem, and use AI and automation to take the manual grind off your plate so you can spend more time on the work that actually needs a sharp eye. This is a role for someone who wants ownership over their piece of the books, not a checklist to clear.

- Complete monthly reconciliations across all balance sheet accounts, resolving discrepancies before they compound (30%)
- Run monthly variance analysis, comparing actuals to expectations and flagging what needs attention (10%)
- Look for ways to improve accounting processes and procedures, including using AI and automation tools to boost accuracy and speed up issue resolution (10%)
- Lead the year-end financial audit process: coordinate with external auditors and internal teams to provide the documentation and explanations they need (5%)
- Keep accounting practices compliant with GAAP, company policy, and relevant laws and regulations (5%)
- Support tax compliance activities as needed (5%)
Requirements
Required:
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.
Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
