Fix Group Management is the shared services team that supports a portfolio of independently operated businesses across a range of industries. We handle the accounting, finance, HR, and operational work behind the scenes so each individual business can stay focused on serving its customers well. We're a faith-based organization, and we believe how we do business matters as much as what we accomplish — honesty, integrity, and treating people well aren't just values we talk about, they're how we expect our team to operate every day.

As Fix Group Management's portfolio of independently operated businesses continues to grow, the CFO/President needs a strategic partner. This is a new position created to bring dedicated, senior-level accounting leadership in-house — someone who can operate at both the technical and strategic level. This is not a steady-state, maintain-the-books role — we need someone who is equally comfortable getting into the technical detail and stepping back to build the structure, controls, and reporting infrastructure that will let us scale.

You'll own the accuracy and integrity of our books, build and lead a strong accounting team, and provide the financial insight leadership needs to make sound, data-driven decisions.

• Manage daily accounting operations, including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, fixed assets, and cash management.

• Lead month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes to ensure accurate, timely, and compliant financial reporting.

• Oversee account reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and supporting schedules to maintain the integrity of financial records.

• Develop, implement, and monitor accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls to reduce risk and support audit readiness.

• Identify opportunities to streamline accounting workflows, improve reporting accuracy, and strengthen operational efficiency across the finance function.

• Assist with tax preparation and coordinate with outside tax preparers as needed.

• Research company data to prepare budgets, forecasts, and ROI analyses across entities.

• Prepare financial packages for internal and external stakeholders, clients, and/or vendors.

• Perform financial risk assessments and conduct internal audits.

• Partner with leadership to develop short- and long-term operational and financial strategy.

• Build and implement software tools that scale with growth.

• Own and optimize our use of Net Suite, including reporting, workflows, and system configuration.

• Support the financial onboarding and integration of newly acquired or added portfolio businesses.

• Lead, mentor, and develop a team of accounting and finance professionals, building bench strength for the long term.

• Set clear expectations, KPIs, and accountability standards for the accounting department.

• Ensure compliance with financial and accounting regulations across all entities.

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or related field, preferred.

• 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including time spent as a Controller, Assistant Controller, or Accounting Manager overseeing multi-entity operations.

• Proven experience working across multiple entities and/or industries.

• 5+ years of hands-on Net Suite experience (reporting, workflows, configuration);
  Net Suite fluency is a strong differentiator for this role.

• Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing accounting teams (5+ direct/indirect reports).

• Proficient in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace; experience with Paycom or a comparable HRIS/payroll platform preferred.
