Controller

Controller

Salary: $100,000–$120,000
Location: Orlando, FL | Onsite with Hybrid Flexibility

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This Controller opportunity offers the chance to step into a high‑impact leadership role within a mission‑driven nonprofit organization overseeing a complex, multi‑fund accounting environment. The Controller will partner directly with executive leadership to support financial strategy, strengthen internal controls, and ensure accurate reporting across multiple funding streams.

What makes this Controller role especially compelling is the visibility and influence it provides. The Controller will oversee the full accounting function while contributing to policy development, process improvement, and long‑term financial planning in an organization with strong community impact.

This role is ideal for a Controller who enjoys balancing strategic oversight with hands‑on execution, developing teams, and working collaboratively across departments in a purpose‑driven environment.

• Develop, implement, and refine accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls as the Controller


• Lead audits and serve as the primary liaison with external auditors and regulatory partners as the Controller

Qualifications for the Controller

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field with 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership responsibility
