The OpportunityA growing private-equity-backed healthcare services company is hiring a hands-on Controller. The company operates across several states and entities. The Controller reports to the CFO and will run day-to-day accounting: the close, financial reporting, revenue recognition, internal controls, audits and cash reporting. The company is also preparing for a major ERP implementation, and this person will help lead it.
This role fits a leader who can think strategically and still work in the details. You'll build a small team and put processes in place that scale as the business grows.
What You’ll Do- Lead the month-end, quarter-end and year-end close across multiple entities, delivering accurate GAAP financial statements.
- Shorten the close timeline and keep it efficient.
- Review journal entries, reconciliations and supporting schedules, and keep the general ledger audit-ready.
- Manage and grow a small accounting team covering AP, AR, payroll and general accounting.
- Design approval workflows, purchasing controls and payment processes.
- Find ways to automate manual work and speed up reporting.
- Oversee fixed assets and lease accounting under ASC 842.
- Produce consolidated reporting across entities and states.
- Prepare cash forecasts, and support the CFO on liquidity and planning.
- Lead the annual budget alongside operations leaders.
- Build monthly reporting packages for leadership and the company's private equity owners.
- Run the annual audit and support lender, tax and regulatory requests.
- Write, document and enforce accounting policies and controls.
- Support acquisitions, from due diligence through purchase accounting and integration.
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA strongly preferred
- Several years of recent Controller experience
- Background in public accounting, ideally at a national or Big Four firm
- Experience with multi-entity, multi-state consolidations
- Experience working for a private-equity-backed company
- Hands-on experience with a software implementation
- A track record of improving the close and automating accounting processes
- Strong command of US GAAP (ASC 606, ASC 842, business combinations)
- Advanced Excel skills and experience managing an external audit
Competitive base salary plus an annual bonus.
$180,000 - $200,000
