Salary: $125,000 – $150,000

Why This Controller Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Work directly with executive ownership in a well-established, third-generation family-owned business.
  • Step into a highly visible Controller role focused on post-merger finance integration and transformation.
  • Build, develop, and lead the accounting team as the organization transitions away from outside consultants.

  • Work from a newly rebuilt, modern office environment designed to support collaboration and energy.
  • Benefit from a comprehensive healthcare package, with the company covering approximately two-thirds of costs.
  • Participate in a 401(k) plan with a 3% safe harbor contribution plus a 2% match.
  • Enjoy PTO flexibility and room for continued professional growth as a Controller.
  • Partner with an engaged leadership team that values accountability, collaboration, and a hands-on approach.
  • Leverage strong banking relationships and financial backing to support continued business momentum.
  • Thrive in a fast-paced, high-volume environment where the Controller plays a critical leadership role.

Key Responsibilities for the Controller:

  • Lead monthly GAAP financial reporting, including the full month-end close and preparation of financial statements.
  • Oversee accounts receivable, accounts payable, and payroll functions while developing and mentoring accounting staff.
  • Manage the external audit process and serve as the primary liaison with auditors.
  • Build and implement budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes.
  • Strengthen internal controls and drive process improvements across accounting operations.
  • Oversee banking relationships, treasury activities, and loan covenant reporting.

Qualifications for the Controller:

  • Proven experience as a Controller or senior accounting leader managing accounting teams and audit processes.
  • Strong technical knowledge of GAAP, financial reporting, and month-end close procedures.
  • Advanced Excel skills and hands-on experience working with ERP systems.
  • Ability to improve processes, strengthen controls, and support a growing business environment.
  • Collaborative, hands-on leadership style with the ability to partner effectively across the organization.
  • Success in a Controller role within a dynamic, growth-oriented company is highly preferred.
