We are seeking a highly technical and operationally-minded Assistant Group Controller to oversee the financial health of our multi-entity investment portfolio. This role is unique: you will bridge the gap between high-level investment management reporting and the granular accounting required for our construction and manufacturing holdings.

Investment Management & Consolidations

  • Multi-Entity Consolidation: Manage the month-end close for a complex hierarchy of entities, ensuring precise inter-company eliminations and equity-method accounting.

  • Cash Flow & Liquidity: Develop and maintain rolling cash flow models that account for both investment capital calls and operational project funding.

  • Audit & Compliance: Serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors; manage the PBC process and maintain a "SOX-ready" internal control environment.

Systems & Projects

  • Digital Transformation: Lead accounting software migrations (e.g., QBD to QBO and integrations, ie. Odoo) and partner with IT to automate reporting.

  • Financial Reporting: Prepare consolidated financial statements and contribute to Board of Directors' reporting packages.


Job Requirements

  • Certification:Active CPA Designation (Required).Please provide your license number with your application.

  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Accounting or Finance.

  • Experience: * Minimum 7+ years of progressive accounting experience.

    • Proven track record in a multi-entity or investment management environment.

  • Technical Skills: Advanced Excel (Power Query/Pivot); proficiency in QuickBooks (Desktop and Online) and exposure to larger ERP systems (NetSuite, Sage, or similar).


Why This Role?

This isn't a "back-office" role. You will be instrumental in professionalizing the accounting functions of our various holdings, moving them from legacy systems to a scalable, investment-grade reporting platform.
