Description















Controller















$160,000-$175,000

Lead the accounting function for a growing, multi-entity business where you'll have visibility to ownership and the opportunity to drive process improvements. This role is ideal for an experienced accounting leader looking for broad responsibility, operational impact, and long-term growth.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Join a growing organization with a multi-location footprint and multiple revenue streams.
• Gain direct exposure to ownership and executive leadership.
• Take ownership of the accounting function and influence key financial decisions.
• Opportunity to improve processes, strengthen controls, and drive operational efficiencies.
• Broad exposure across retail, eCommerce, and wholesale operations.
• Work in a fast-paced environment where your contributions are visible and valued.
• Be part of a company experiencing continued growth and expansion.

Key Responsibilities for the Controller:
• Oversee day-to-day accounting operations and the month-end close process.
• Manage financial reporting, general ledger activity, and account reconciliations.
• Maintain internal controls and ensure compliance with accounting standards.
• Support budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis initiatives.
• Partner with leadership to improve accounting processes and reporting capabilities.
• Lead and develop accounting team members.

Qualifications for the Controller:
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.
• Progressive accounting leadership experience.
• Strong background in financial reporting and month-end close activities.
• Experience managing accounting operations and internal controls.
