Accounting Manager, Financial Reporting, Financial Controller
Overview
Ethos Software acquires and operates mission-critical vertical market software companies. We’re hiring a Controller to own day-to-day accounting operations across our platform and portfolio.
You’ve owned close, you’ve cleaned up messy processes, and you’re comfortable operating in the details. This is an operations-first accounting role focused on building repeatable workflows and keeping the accounting engine running cleanly and on time. No FP&A or corporate finance.
This is a hands-on role — you’ll both lead and execute.
This role reports directly to the CFO. The CFO owns Operations, Human Resources, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), and Corporate Development (Corp Dev); these responsibilities are outside the scope of this Controller role.
LocationDenver preferred, open to remote (U.S. / compatible time zones)
What You’ll Do- Own the core accounting engine across multiple entities: monthly close, AR, AP, cash application, and key balance sheet schedules
- Lead SaaS accounting operations: billing workflows, deferred revenue roll forwards, revenue support
- Maintain clean, review-ready balance sheet schedules and documentation
- Own accounting process discipline in Sage Intacct (dimensions, GL structure, entity mapping, approvals)
- Build and enforce SOPs, controls, and scalable accounting workflows
- Standardize processes and reporting across multiple entities, including acquired businesses
- Lead a fully remote accounting team across U.S. and international time zones
- Coordinate with external partners for tax filings and reviewed financials only (accounting is in-house)
- Partner with billing/collections and adjacent systems to ensure smooth data flow into Intacct
- 7+ years of progressive accounting experience (Controller / Assistant Controller)
- Strong GAAP fundamentals and clean close ownership
- SaaS/recurring revenue experience required (deferred revenue, billing, contract-to-cash)
- Experience operating in a large ERP environment (Sage Intacct strongly preferred)
- Multi-entity accounting and consolidations experience strongly preferred
- Strong process orientation and ability to drive accountability in a remote team
- Experience/curiosity regarding AI-powered accounting tools and a desire to increase productivity through automation
- CPA is a plus, not required
A predictable close, clean balance sheet schedules, and scalable processes that work consistently across entities.
