A bit about us

A global technology enterprise operating at scale across multiple continents, enabling secure, high-volume digital transactions and financial connectivity.

Job Details

The Opportunity

This role functions as the Chief Accounting Officer for a complex, multi‑entity global enterprise. Reporting directly to the CFO, the VP of Global Accounting will oversee all aspects of accounting, controllership, reporting, and compliance across 70+ countries. The organization includes roughly 40 direct reports and 700+ indirect across shared service centers and regional finance hubs.

This is a rare opportunity to lead a world‑class accounting organization through modernization and scaling while partnering with executive leadership to drive performance and compliance globally.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead all global accounting and controllership functions, including GL, consolidations, technical accounting, revenue, cost, and reporting across business units and regions.
  • Own the global close process — ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with US GAAP and IFRS.
  • Oversee and enhance SOX controls, internal audit, and enterprise risk management frameworks.
  • Direct global shared service operations (A / P, A / R, Payroll, GL, and Revenue) across multiple regions.
  • Partner with FP&A, Tax, Treasury, and Legal on M&A, integrations, and cross‑border accounting issues.
  • Lead finance transformation initiatives, including ERP optimization (SAP / Oracle), automation (BlackLine, Workiva), and process redesign.
  • Provide executive‑level insight and partnership to the CFO, CEO, and Audit Committee.
  • Develop and mentor a global accounting team built on excellence, accountability, and innovation.

Ideal Background

  • 15+ years of progressive accounting and controllership leadership, ideally at the VP / CAO level within a multi‑billion‑dollar global company.
  • Proven success managing large, distributed teams (500+ employees) across international regions.
  • Deep expertise in US GAAP, IFRS, SEC reporting, and SOX compliance.
  • Demonstrated success in modernizing accounting operations through ERP or automation initiatives.
  • CPA required; MBA or advanced degree preferred.
  • Executive presence and credibility to partner with senior leadership and external stakeholders.
  • Equal Opportunity
