The Role

We’re looking for a hands-on, detail-oriented, and forward-thinking Controller to lead our accounting and financial operations.

• Lead the Finance Team : Manage, mentor, and develop a talented finance team across multiple locations.
• Manage Accounting Operations : Oversee general ledger activity and ensure timely, accurate monthly, quarterly, and year-end closes.
• Drive Financial Forecasting : Prepare, analyze, and present reports that forecast company performance, track cash flow, and support strategic decision-making.
• Own the Budget Process : Partner with department leaders to create, monitor, and enforce budgets — ensuring alignment with company goals.
• Strengthen Controls & Compliance : Establish and maintain strong internal controls, accounting procedures, and financial reporting processes in compliance with GAAP.
• Coordinate Audit & Tax Compliance : Work closely with our fractional CFO and outside accounting firm to manage the annual financial audit and oversee tax compliance, including state sales tax reporting.
