About the role

Join the Park Opportunity Garden

At Park, we believe a world-class landscape starts from the ground up—and that includes our team. We don’t just offer jobs; we provide a fertile space where you can plant your ambitions and watch them bloom. Our culture is built on a simple philosophy: When we invest in you, you invest in us.

The "Opportunity Garden" Framework

We’ve designed our employee experience around three core pillars to ensure you don’t just work—you flourish:

  • NURTURE: We Get It – We provide a supportive environment built on Integrity & Trust. Your wellbeing is our priority; we focus on Working Safe & Working Smart to create a frictionless environment with the tools you need to succeed without the burnout.
  • GROW: Building Capacity – We don’t leave your career to chance. Through our Employee Success initiative, we provide intentional growth plans, training, and resources to expand your skillset. If you have the ambition, we provide the ladder.
  • THRIVE: You Want It – This is where your "Can-Do" Attitude meets Empowerment. We trust you to be a problem-solver with the autonomy to tackle challenges head-on. We take pride in the tangible "before and after" of our labor.

The Role: Accounting Manager

While we provide the environment, we need you to provide the financial expertise. In this role, you will be a key leader and the primary architect of the organization’s financial integrity, accuracy, and operational timeliness. You will act as the bridge between financial strategy and day-to-day operations, translating complex data into actionable insights.

Your Daily Impact:

  • Financial Stewardship: Lead and manage the full-cycle month-end and year-end close processes, ensuring every detail is accurate and deadlines are met.
  • Reporting & Analysis: Prepare and review comprehensive financial statements and variance reports (actuals vs. budget) to support high-level management decision-making.
  • Operational Oversight: Supervise accounts payable, accounts receivable, and payroll functions while monitoring cash flow to support our operational needs.
  • Process Innovation: Continuously improve accounting policies and internal controls, identifying opportunities for automation and efficiency across the board.
  • Collaborative Leadership: Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing accounting team while liaising with external auditors and tax advisors.

The Essentials for Growth (KSAs)

To truly thrive in this role, you’ll need a solid foundation of skills and the right mindset:

  • Knowledge: Solid understanding of accounting standards, regulatory requirements, and internal controls. Experience in landscaping or construction industries is preferred.
  • Skills: Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and QuickBooks Online. Familiarity with industry tools like Aspire, Fleetio, or ADP is a major asset.
  • Abilities: A minimum of 5 years of progressive accounting experience, with at least 2 years in a management capacity. You must have a CPA designation (or be actively pursuing one).
  • Mindset: A "Can-Do" attitude with the ability to manage competing priorities with precision in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

Ready to Branch Out? Your Future Starts Here

At Park, we don’t just hire—we plant the seeds for long-term success. If you’re looking for a workplace where your "Can-Do" attitude is rewarded with real opportunity, you’ve found it.

When you join our garden, you’re gaining:

  • Visible Career Paths: Clear milestones for advancement and raises.
  • Innovative Tools: Latest technology to make your job smoother, smarter, and safer.
  • Impactful Work: Pride in the physical transformation of our community.
  • A Culture of Respect: A high-trust environment where your voice is heard.

Park is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive "Opportunity Garden" for all employees.
