A global organization is seeking a strategic, technology‑forward Controller (CPA required) to oversee its global accounting function. This individual will modernize financial operations, drive system improvements, strengthen controls, and work closely with executive leadership to support the organization's long‑term growth.

This is an opportunity for a forward‑thinking finance leader who excels at both high-level strategy and hands‑on execution, especially in technology‑enabled environments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Deliver timely, accurate, and compliant consolidated financial statements.
  • Maintain and enhance internal controls, accounting policies, and international compliance frameworks.
Strategic Financial Management
  • Provide executive leadership with financial insights, KPI reporting, and proactive recommendations.
  • Lead annual budgeting, long‑range planning, and ongoing forecasting.
  • Strengthen the global financial infrastructure to support scalability.
Technology & Process Transformation
  • Lead modernization of accounting systems, automation initiatives, and digital workflows.
  • Support ERP implementations, enhancements, and system integrations.
  • Identify opportunities to streamline complex, multi-entity accounting processes.
Operational Excellence
  • Oversee general ledger management, treasury support, reconciliations, and policy documentation.
  • Ensure compliance with GAAP and international regulatory requirements.
  • Coordinate external audits and manage third‑party audit relationships.
Cross‑Functional Collaboration
  • Partner with Operations, FP&A, Legal, HR, and Technology teams to ensure accurate financial integration across the business.
  • Support strategic projects, product launches, and new business initiatives.
  • Lead and mentor a high-performing accounting team; promote a culture of continuous improvement.
  • Strengthen skill development, accountability, and alignment within the finance function.
Qualifications Required
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
  • 8–12+ years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership in a global or multi‑entity environment with foundational public accounting experience.
  • Deep understanding of U.S. GAAP; familiarity with international accounting standards preferred.
  • Proven experience implementing or modernizing financial systems (ERP, automation, BI tools).
  • Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder‑management skills.
  • Financial services, fintech, asset management, or other regulated‑industry background.
Preferred
  • Experience with enterprise‑class systems (e.g., Net Suite, Workday, SAP, Oracle).
  • Familiarity with BI tools (Power BI, Tableau).
  • Experience supporting global operations or cross‑border consolidations.
  • Track record of leading strategic finance initiatives and process transformation.
Why This Role Stands Out
  • High visibility and partnership with global leadership.
  • Opportunity to drive enterprise‑wide transformation across systems and processes.
  • Ability to shape the global accounting strategy for a growing financial services organization.
  • Competitive salary range: $180000 – $215,000 + bonus
  • Employees are paid on a biweekly basis.
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
  • Generous PTO: 20 days annually + sick leave
  • Opportunity to work with a dynamic and growing organization
