Sr. Controller - General Ledger Shared Services

My Financial Partner delivers high quality, fast-paced fractional Controller, AP, and GL services to 70+ network companies across the Teamshares portfolio. We're a wholly owned subsidiary of Teamshares, Inc. — a publicly traded company built to keep great small businesses thriving, one acquisition at a time.

The Senior Controller, GL Shared Services owns the record-to-report (R2R) process for the approximately 100 Network Companies supported by MFP, a number that grows with each acquisition. This is a hands-on operational execution and leadership role: working collaboratively with MFP’s Industry Controllers, you will run the monthly, quarterly and year-end close, for the GL task responsibilities, own the training and standards used to perform the functions, and build a scalable, SOX-ready shared services team for GL as MFP grows through acquisition.

You will lead a blended onshore and Colombia-based offshore team, growing to 10-15 people by 2027, integrate newly acquired companies onto standard processes and systems, and partner with Network Company Controllers, FP&A, Tax and the Chief Accounting Officer. Success means a faster, more accurate, well-controlled close that can absorb new companies without a matching increase in headcount.
