Job Description

Company Overview

Magna Global Partners is a private investment firm that specializes in asset-backed credit, futures trading, and private equity roll-ups. We are aggressively expanding our portfolio in the surfacing and construction sector through a high-velocity roll-up strategy, currently overseeing seven operating companies across funds, the firm, portfolio entities, and our supply chain platform. Over the next 12 months, we plan to acquire and integrate at least 8 additional high-quality businesses.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a talented, driven accounting professional (CPA preferred), with 2-3 years of experience, to play a central role in scaling our finance function during this explosive growth phase. Reporting to the CFO, you will quickly assume ownership of financial reporting and accounting operations across multiple portfolio companies, while partnering closely to build processes and controls. This is an opportunity to transition from a hands-on accountant to a strategic finance leader, with meaningful potential to advance into an executive role in a high-growth private equity setting.

Key Responsibilities

• Assume full ownership of accrual-based accounting processes across portfolio companies, with a strong emphasis on documentation, audit readiness, and retention of supporting files.
• Ensure accurate period-end matching of revenues and expenses, including complex multi-entity consolidations, intercompany eliminations, and purchase accounting adjustments from acquisitions.
• Lead month-end close processes, financial statement preparation, variance analysis, and reporting to the CFO, investment team, and portfolio company leadership.
• Build and enhance the Accounting & Finance infrastructure (policies, procedures, systems) in collaboration with the CFO to support rapid scaling and integration of new acquisitions.
• Support due diligence and post-acquisition integration from an accounting perspective (opening balance sheets, fair value adjustments, etc.).
• Drive process improvements to reduce timelines, enhance controls, and provide actionable financial insights to operational leaders.
• Manage external auditors, tax preparers, and other third-party finance partners as needed.

Desired Qualifications and Traits

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting (required); CPA or CPA-eligible strongly preferred.
• 2-3+ years of progressive accounting experience; experience in private equity, construction/services industries, or multi-entity environments is a plus.
• Advanced proficiency in Excel (pivot tables, financial modeling, data analysis); familiarity with ERP/accounting systems (e.g., QuickBooks, NetSuite, or similar) preferred.
• Strong technical knowledge of U.S. GAAP, accrual accounting, revenue recognition, and consolidations.
• Hardworking, fast learner with high ambition and intellectual curiosity about business strategy and entrepreneurship.
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment; resilient and committed to learning from challenges.
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills; transparent, honest, and collaborative.
