Accounting Associate

USA DeBusk – Nitrogen Services Division (Extreme Nitrogen) | Harvey, LA | Full-Time

Reports to Controller and CFO. Supports USA DeBusk’s combined nitrogen services division.

OVERVIEW

Extreme Nitrogen is a nitrogen services provider in the U.S., delivering nitrogen pumping services to blue-chip refinery, chemical, LNG, and pipeline customers across the country. In February 2026, Extreme Nitrogen was acquired by USA DeBusk, a PE-backed industrial services platform with a similar entrepreneurial culture and approximately 3,000 employees. Our management team now runs the combined nitrogen services division across both legacy businesses. Our combined fleet and scale in the nitrogen services industry is now unmatched. It’s an exciting time — we’re integrating operations, rolling out a new ERP system (Oracle Fusion), and building out the finance & accounting function to match the scale of the business.

We’re looking for an Accounting Associate to support the division. This is a broad role—you’ll be involved in AP, AR, month-end close, and reporting. You’ll have real visibility into how the business runs and direct interaction with operations, sales, and corporate accounting. The right person is someone who’s energized by a fast-moving environment, not intimidated by it.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Accounts payable – vendor invoice coding, approval routing, payment scheduling
• Accounts receivable – customer billing, collections follow-up, cash application
• Month-end close support – journal entries, reconciliations, accruals, variance analysis
• Build and maintain Excel-based reports and analyses for management and ownership
• Help develop and improve processes and internal controls as the division matures post-acquisition
• Work with field operations, sales, and corporate accounting to resolve discrepancies
• Participate in the Oracle Fusion ERP implementation and build proficiency in new systems
• Ad hoc projects and analyses as needed

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

The short version: someone who takes initiative, figures things out, and doesn’t need to be micromanaged.

• Self-starter mentality — you see a problem; you go solve it
• Comfortable with changing priorities
• Strong Excel skills (formulas, pivots, lookups, data manipulation — not just data entry)
• Tech-savvy and open to using AI tools and automation in your daily work (we use Claude by Anthropic many times per day)
• Detail-oriented but able to step back and prioritize what actually matters
• Good communicator — not afraid to pick up the phone or walk down the hall
• Hungry to learn and grow into a bigger role over time

QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred (not required)
• 0–3 years of relevant experience — internships, part-time roles, and public accounting all count
• Working knowledge of accounting basics (debits & credits, accrual vs. cash, financial statements)
• Excel proficiency is non-negotiable
• ERP experience (Oracle, QuickBooks, or similar) is a plus but not required
