Controller
We are partnering with a highly acquisitive, multi-site service organization looking to add a Controller to their executive team.

We are seeking a Controller with an analytical mind and excellent organizational skills. This is a tremendous opportunity to help scale a fast-growing company. Our accounting team is focused on growth, so a passion for automating tasks and an aptitude for applying technological solutions to manual problems is a must. We are a lean team and an ability to operate independently across a range of functions including monthly close, treasury, audit, tax, and payroll, is critical.

The Controller works directly with the CFO in developing accurate, scalable, and timely reporting and will have significant influence on the department’s decision-making, particularly, converting the company’s financials to comply with GAAP. The Controller will assist in the development of internal controls across the accounting function. This position will own the monthly close process, ensure reporting accuracy, and reduce manual tasks throughout the department and will be heavily involved in the audit process. We focus on informed decision-making through data analysis and as such the candidate will see an immediate impact from their work to the operations of the business lines. The Controller reports directly to the CFO will have full responsibility for accounting, reporting, and compliance functions.
