AI-First. Future-Driven. Human-Centered.
At OpenText, AI is at the heart of everything we do—powering innovation, transforming work, and empowering digital knowledge workers. We are hiring talent AI can't replace to help us shape the future of information management. Join us.

Your Impact:
As a member of OpenText’s Finance team, the Senior Accountant contributes to the accuracy and timeliness of financial reporting through hands‑on execution of core accounting activities. This role is responsible for independently preparing journal entries, account reconciliations, and detailed analyses, and for supporting month‑end close, audit activities, and internal control requirements. The Senior Accountant applies sound judgment, resolves complex reconciling items, and contributes to the ongoing improvement of processes, documentation, and reporting practices.

What the role offers:

Prepare payroll journal entries and accruals in accordance with US GAAP and company policies, and execute month‑end close activities including detailed, well‑documented balance sheet reconciliations with timely resolution of aged items
Perform month‑over‑month and quarter‑over‑quarter variance analysis for assigned balance sheet and P accounts, providing clear commentary for management reporting
Investigate discrepancies, identify root causes, propose solutions, and partner with cross‑functional teams to obtain information, resolve issues, and support accurate financial reporting
Support SOX controls and internal control requirements through documentation and evidence preparation, and assist with internal and external audit requests and inquiries
Identify opportunities to improve processes, documentation, and efficiency; mentor new team members; and participate in special projects including system enhancements, process improvements, and integration activities

What you need to succeed:

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or related field, with CPA preferred or in progress, and 5–8 years of progressive accounting experience with strong US GAAP knowledge
Hands‑on experience preparing journal entries, reconciliations, and variance analyses, supported by strong analytical skills, problem‑solving ability, and high attention to detail
Proven ability to manage competing priorities and deliver results in a fast‑paced environment, working independently with minimal supervision while contributing effectively as a team member
Strong interpersonal, collaboration, written, and verbal communication skills, demonstrating sound judgment and a proactive, solution‑oriented mindset
Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office (especially Excel) and required SAP experience
