DEPARTMENT: Accounting 

LOCATION: In-office at the Lynnwood Home Office 

 

Pay: $31.25 - 36.06 per hour

 

Zumiez has big goals for our Accounting Team. We're working hard to support the
organization with accurate and timely reporting to help us all achieve our
long-term growth initiatives domestically and internationally as a
publicly-traded retailer for young men and women who want to express their
individuality through the fashion, music, art and culture of action sports. We
are always looking to find ways to develop and innovate our processes in order
to work smarter and faster.

 

This is where you come in.

 

We’re looking for an Entry Level Staff Accountant that is a team player and has
an understanding of retail transactions, general accounting, and an ability and
interest to tackle new projects as they arise. The Entry Level Staff Accountant
will be responsible for revenue/cash management and regulatory reporting.

 

The right candidate for this position will be detail oriented, drive development
and efficiencies, experience in fast-paced environments, ability to work with
various internal departments, an interest in continuous improvement and a drive
to grow with the company. The Entry Level Staff Accountant role is building a
foundation for a great career at Zumiez and beyond.

 

Your background: What kind of person will thrive in this role?

 

You should have…

BA/BS accounting degree or be working towards your degree

A track record of ability to problem-solve and prioritize tasks

Ability to interact effectively with different personality styles

Strong team building skills

An appreciation of Zumiez culture and values

Retail and process automation experience a plus

 

And everyone you work with should describe you as…

A good team player

A strong communicator who can gauge an audience and adapt accordingly

Having a positive upbeat personality

 

Where you’ll work

Our headquarters are in the thriving metropolis of Lynnwood, Washington, just
North of Seattle. This is a cube-free, skateboards welcome, open environment
that’s designed to get people talking, debating the merits of an idea, and
having fun. Even though our company was founded in 1978, our ~250 person HQ
culture still feels very start-up-y. And even though we’re the home office,
you’ll find a strong sales culture – not an administrative culture – here.
