 ASAHI BEER USA | OCTOPI BREWING


STAFF ACCOUNTANT

The Person Who Makes Sure Every Number Adds Up

Full-Time


ABOUT ASAHI BEER USA / OCTOPI BREWING

Founded in 2014 as a Wisconsin contract brewery, Octopi Brewing has spent over a decade brewing and packaging beer, seltzers, RTDs, and sodas for clients nationwide. In 2024, Asahi — brewers of Asahi Super Dry — acquired Octopi, making us the U.S. production home of Super Dry. Today, our 250+ person team of beverage industry pros keeps that same local, quality-first spirit alive at a state-of-the-art facility. Our Finance team keeps the business side of Octopi and Asahi as sharp as our production side — and the Staff Accountant plays a key role in keeping our books accurate, audit-ready, and on time.


THE OPPORTUNITY

We're looking for a Staff Accountant to support our accounting and financial reporting functions — from journal entries and reconciliations to month-end close — helping keep our financial information accurate and reliable as we continue to grow.


WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE GREAT

• Broad exposure across the full accounting cycle — GL, AP/AR, reconciliations, close, and reporting — not just one narrow lane

• A direct line to the Controller, with real visibility into how the business runs financially

• A strong foundation role for building a long-term accounting career, especially as we continue to grow


WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Prepare and post journal entries, and maintain and investigate general ledger account activity

• Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations and support month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close

• Process and reconcile accounts payable, accounts receivable, and company bank deposits

• Support preparation of financial statements and management reports

• File and monitor tax reporting requirements, and maintain audit-ready accounting records

• Track purchase orders and reconcile company credit card accounts


WHAT YOU BRING

Must-haves:

• 1–3 years of accounting experience preferred

• 2-year accounting or business degree with 1–2 years of related experience, or a 4-year accounting degree

• Working knowledge of GAAP and financial reporting principles

• Proficient in Microsoft Excel and accounting software/ERP systems

• Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail

Nice-to-haves:

• Familiarity with accounts payable and accounts receivable processes

• Experience supporting fixed asset accounting


BENEFITS & PERKS

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage — effective the 1st of the month after 30 days

• Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance

• 401(k) with company match — 100% up to 3%, 50% on the next 2%

• 120 hours of PTO annually, with accrual that grows the longer you're here

• 9 paid holidays (if they fall on your scheduled workday)

• A free beer after shift, because you earned it


PAY

• Pay: $60,000–$65,000 annually Full-time, exempt




Compensation details: 60000-65000 Yearly Salary
