Controller
Salary: $140–$170K base + incentives
Denver, CO – Work From Home
We are seeking a hands-on Controller to join a high-growth, mission-driven advanced materials recovery and environmental technology organization that is entering a significant growth phase.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a foundational leadership role where you will directly shape the accounting infrastructure and help build a finance function designed for long-term growth and public-company readiness. You will work closely with senior finance leadership in an environment that is actively evolving, with significant visibility across the business and a high degree of ownership.
Controller – Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Direct exposure to public-company readiness initiatives, including audit preparation and compliance frameworks
- Significant involvement in systems transformation, including a transition to NetSuite and ongoing process optimization
- Broad operational exposure across complex financial areas, including manufacturing-style accounting, R&D-related activity, project accounting, and capital asset tracking
- Opportunity to partner closely with executive leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and strategic financial planning
- Strong foundational accounting team already in place, providing a platform to build and scale
- High-impact leadership role with input into team structure and future hires
- Hybrid flexibility with a Denver-based organization and openness to remote arrangements
Controller – Key Responsibilities:
- Own and manage the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, including journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reporting
- Oversee general ledger accounting and maintain strong internal controls to ensure audit-ready financials at all times
- Lead accounting operations, including accounts payable, accounts receivable support, payroll accounting oversight, and fixed asset accounting
- Drive systems implementation and optimization efforts, including migration to NetSuite and improved financial reporting processes
- Partner with senior finance leadership on budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, and broader strategic initiatives
Qualifications:
- 7+ years of progressive accounting experience with prior Controller, Assistant Controller, or senior accounting leadership experience
- Strong public-company accounting background with deep understanding of U.S. GAAP and audit requirements
- Hands-on experience with NetSuite (or comparable ERP), strong Excel skills, and proven ownership of month-end close processes
