Staff Accountant
Accounting
Full Time
West Point, MS, USA
It’s not a passion, it’s an obsession.
In 1986, Mossy Oak founder and CEO Toxey Haas had the vision to take a handful of Mississippi dirt, sticks, and leaves and transform it into a brand-new type of camouflage. Comprised entirely of natural earth elements and colors, the resulting design was unlike any pattern that had ever come before it and gave hunters the power to obliterate their outline while effortlessly blending into the environment.
Over three decades later, the Mossy Oak of today is so much broader than the Mossy Oak of 1986, but the seed for what we are today was planted back then and continues to grow, leading us to add a new member to join our Accounting team.
