Controller
hyrUP, New York, NY, United States
Interim Controller (3-Month Contract) | PE-Backed Fire & Safety Platform | Bronx, NY
We’re partnered with a highly acquisitive private equity-backed fire and safety platform company on an urgent
Interim Controller
search tied to its
largest add-on acquisition to date .
This is a high-impact opportunity for a hands‑on accounting leader to step into a newly acquired business, stabilize the close process, elevate reporting, and serve as a trusted finance presence during integration.
Logistics
Location:
Bronx, NY (onsite ~80% of the time)
Ideal for candidates in
NY / NJ / CT
who can commute
Start:
Early to mid-May
Why This Role Stands Out
Backed by a well-regarded private equity sponsor with an active acquisition strategy
Opportunity to lead finance clean‑up efforts during a transformational acquisition
High visibility to both platform leadership and ownership group
Ability to make an immediate operational impact
Key Responsibilities
Assess and improve accounting processes and monthly close procedures
Clean up historical financials and support timely, accurate reporting to platform/fund leadership
Partner with the existing Controller; coach on best practices and stronger controls
Implement scalable processes, reporting cadence, and discipline
Act as finance “eyes and ears” on‑site during integration
Ideal Background
Strong month‑end close and process improvement skillset
Experience in PE‑backed, acquisitive, or carve‑out environments preferred
Comfortable working hands‑on in a less polished environment
