Salary min: $69.00

Salary max: $79.00

Duration: Full Time


Controller
Salary: $145,000-$165,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • This Controller role offers a true leadership seat at the table—you’ll partner directly with executive leadership and play a key role in shaping financial strategy.

  • Join a well-established, growing organization with deep roots and a strong reputation, offering both stability and forward momentum.

  • The Controller will lead a tenured, collaborative accounting team, stepping into a culture where people enjoy working together and support one another.

  • You’ll have the opportunity to modernize processes and drive efficiencies, making a lasting impact rather than just maintaining the status quo.

  • Work-life balance is respected—leadership understands the demands of the role and supports flexibility when needed.


Key Responsibilities:



  • Oversee all accounting operations, including month-end close, financial reporting, and internal controls as the Controller

  • Manage and mentor the accounting team, fostering development and accountability

  • Prepare and analyze financial statements, budgets, and forecasts

  • Ensure compliance with GAAP and regulatory requirements

  • Partner with leadership to support strategic planning and business decisions


Qualifications:



  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership experience

  • Strong knowledge of financial reporting, GAAP, and internal controls

  • Hands-on, collaborative leader with strong communication skills
