As our Controller, you'll oversee financial operations across multiple companies within our portfolio. You'll handle everything from high-level financial analysis to month-end closings and reconciliations, as well as establish and maintain internal controls and processes.

  • Budgeting & Forecasting : Prepare annual budgets and rolling quarterly forecasts, conduct financial analysis to guide decision-making, and support strategic initiatives.
  • Regulatory / Tax Compliance & Reporting : Oversee sales, property, transaction and income tax compliance; work with external partners for tax returns and audits. Ensure timely and accurate regulatory reporting and compliance with federal and other agencies.
  • Internal Controls & Process Improvement : Develop and maintain internal controls to ensure accurate, efficient processes; lead automation initiatives for financial operations.
  • Cash Flow & Banking : Oversee cash management and banking relationships, ensuring adequate liquidity across entities.
  • Payroll & HR Coordination : Oversee payroll processes and collaborate with HR to ensure smooth operations.
  • Team Support : Train and mentor junior accounting staff, helping to build a capable, collaborative finance team.

Additional Skills & Qualifications :

  • Education : Bachelor's or master's degree in accounting or MBA with accounting emphasis.
  • Experience : At least five years in accounting and finance, at least two years as a controller, with a strong foundation in general ledger accounting, financial reporting, and internal controls.
  • Technical Proficiency : Skilled in accounting software (e.g., mid-tier ERP systems) and MS Office, especially Excel.
  • Soft Skills : Strong problem-solving capabilities, excellent organization and communication skills, and ability to work well with others in a collaborative environment.
  • Analytical Ability : Ability to analyze complex financial information, manage multiple priorities, and maintain meticulous attention to detail.
  • What We Offer :

  • Competitive Salary : Based on experience.
  • Benefits Package : 3 weeks PTO, 4% 401k match, health and dental insurance (Select Health), with 75% of the base plan covered by the employer.
  • If you're a hands-on professional who loves a fast-paced environment, can take ownership of high-level financial functions, and enjoys working in a team-oriented setting, we'd love to meet you.
