Controller, Accounting, Financial Controller

We’re partnering with a $300M private equity-backed healthcare services organization to hire a Controller for its growing corporate finance team in the Franklin/Brentwood area.

This is a true, hands‑on Controller seat reporting into senior finance leadership, with the opportunity to own the accounting function and play a major role in building out and modernizing the company’s finance infrastructure.

• Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close
• Lead revenue recognition and technical accounting, including ASC 606 and ASC 842
• Oversee multi-entity accounting and consolidated financial reporting
• Manage the annual audit and external auditor relationships
• Lead and develop the accounting team
• Partner with leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow management
• Drive accounting process, systems, controls, and reporting improvements
• Support M&A and acquisition integration activities
• Help centralize and scale the accounting organization

• Healthcare accounting experience required
• Prior Controller-level experience with a strong hands-on accounting foundation
• Strong GAAP, revenue recognition, close, and audit experience
• Experience managing and developing accounting teams
• Healthcare revenue cycle / reimbursement exposure strongly preferred
• EMS/ambulance experience would be particularly attractive
• Public accounting + industry experience is a plus
• Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central experience is highly desirable

Schedule: Approximately 4 days per week in office

This is a stable, growing PE-backed healthcare platform—not a cleanup situation. The incoming Controller will have significant visibility with senior leadership, the opportunity to help build out the Nashville-area finance organization, and a meaningful mandate around systems, reporting, and process modernization. The role also includes equity participation with potentially significant upside tied to the company's future growth and eventual exit.
