Controller – Win with Accuracy, Control the Bottom Line
Location: Jetersville, VA
Do you believe numbers should add up the first time, every time?
Are you the kind of person who spots financial mistakes faster than you can say “reconciliation error”?
Do you believe budgets should be airtight, reports should be flawless, and audits should be uneventful (because you got everything right the first time)?
Can you take ownership of financials, enforce controls, and ensure everything runs smoothly—without needing a second set of eyes?
If this sounds like you, keep reading—we need someone with your precision and problem-solving mindset.
What You’ll Do
As Controller, you’ll own the financials and be the go-to expert for accuracy, compliance, and reporting.
- Ensure rock-solid financial oversight—GAAP compliance, accuracy, and deadlines are non-negotiable.
- Tighten financial controls—spot the gaps, implement solutions, and ensure every dollar is accounted for.
- Deliver financial reports that CFOs actually want to read—precise, timely, and with zero surprises.
- Lead budgeting and forecasting—because "we didn’t see that coming" is not an option.
- Manage and mentor the accounting team—setting high standards for accuracy and accountability.
- Collaborate across departments—because clear financials lead to better decisions, and you’re here to make that happen.
Who You Are
- Relentlessly detail-oriented—you catch mistakes before they happen (and wonder how others missed them).
- Process-driven and structured—you believe systems exist for a reason.
- Decisive and independent—you don’t wait for permission to fix what’s broken.
- Experienced in financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting—you own the numbers, period.
- Confident in accounting systems and construction-specific software—or you learn fast.
Must Have:
- Bachelor’s degree in accounting (required).
- 5-7 years of private or public accounting experience (construction experience strongly preferred).
- Proven expertise in financial reporting, budgeting, and controls.
- Experience leading an accounting team with high expectations for accuracy.
