Overview

As the Accounting Manager, you will play a key role in the close operations and financial reporting for Fanatics’ Betting & Gaming (“FBG”).

You will serve as a key connector across the organization — partnering with the Sr. Director of Accounting on financial reporting, working closely with Shared Services and Technical Accounting on complex transactions, and collaborating with Finance and business stakeholders to ensure activity is properly captured in the financials.

  • Perform and review balance sheet reconciliations across assigned areas, monitoring reconciliation status and ensuring timely resolution of open items
  • Prepare quarterly flux analysis across key balance sheet and income statement accounts, identifying and explaining significant variances and trends to support financial review
  • Prepare and review quarterly and annual financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, including state-level reporting requirements
  • Maintain and strengthen internal controls (including SOX) across consolidation and intercompany accounting processes
  • Support and coordinate the external audit process, preparing audit schedules and serving as a primary point of contact for auditor requests in areas of ownership
  • Collaborate with Shared Services on transactional and intercompany accounting and with Technical Accounting on complex or non-routine transactions
  • Partner with Finance on budgets and forecasts, providing accounting context and ensuring alignment between actuals and plan
  • Work closely with business stakeholders to stay ahead of operational and structural developments and ensure they are appropriately captured in the financials
  • Identify and drive process improvements across consolidation, intercompany, and close workflows to support accuracy, efficiency, and scale
  • Support and develop team members, helping build a high-performing accounting function

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance or related field
  • CPA or equivalent strongly preferred
  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, with demonstrated ownership of close processes and financial statement preparation
  • Strong foundation in US GAAP; IFRS knowledge a plus
  • Experience in financial services, gaming, or other regulated industries with complex multi-entity structures strongly preferred
  • Experience with consolidation accounting and NCI strongly preferred
  • Advanced Excel and data analysis skills; experience with financial systems and ERP platforms preferred
  • Strong attention to detail with the ability to manage competing deadlines across multiple entities
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across finance, accounting, and business teams
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment and proactively manage through ambiguity
