Head of Accounting Execution

Head Of Accounting Execution

At Accruity, we're building something meaningful — for our clients and for each other. We're a people-focused accounting services firm that helps business owners get back to what they do best by handling the financial heavy-lifting with clarity, consistency, and care. We support nearly 100 clients across the country with scalable, high-quality accounting solutions — and we're just getting started.

We're growing intentionally, investing in the right systems, structure, and culture to support great work and sustainable careers. Inside our team, we lead with trust, autonomy, and accountability — no micromanaging, no performative fluff. Just thoughtful self-starters doing real work, done well.

We believe the right fit matters most. We look for people who take ownership, invest in relationships, and aim to raise the standard every day. Our ideal teammate is reliable, curious, collaborative, and committed to growing — someone who welcomes feedback, takes initiative, and values being part of something bigger than themselves. If you're always learning and believe how you show up matters, we think you'll thrive here.

Is this YOU…

• A controller-minded leader who has scaled an accounting team through rapid client growth without losing close discipline?
• Experienced maintaining and closing books across dozens — or hundreds — of entities on a recurring monthly cadence?
• Energized by building the execution engine behind a client-facing delivery team, rather than being the face in front of the client?
• Someone who turns volume and chaos into standardized, repeatable, on-time close processes?
• A leader who can manage and scale a blended onshore and offshore team while holding both to a single quality bar?
• Obsessed with systems, throughput, and accuracy at scale?

We're seeking a Head of Accounting Execution to own all behind-the-scenes accounting production 're separating delivery from execution: our Senior Managers are moving into a dedicated client-delivery role, and you'll own the team that does the work behind them — closing books, preparing deliverables, and handing off review-ready files. Today we close 90 clients across 300+ QBO instances, and we add roughly 6 clients and 15 instances every month.

Your mandate is to build the execution machine that absorbs that growth — scaling both our onshore team and our offshore partnership — while holding the line on accuracy and close timelines.

What You'll Do

• Own the Accounting Execution Function – Lead all behind-the-scenes accounting work — monthly close, reconciliations, and deliverable prep — across the full client base, handing off completed, review-ready files to the Client Delivery team.
• Lead & Scale the Team – Directly lead 3 Accounting Managers, 2 Accounting Staff, and an Overseas Manager running 8+ offshore FTEs — recruiting, structuring, and developing the team as client volume grows.
• Own Multi-Entity Close at Scale – Maintain and close books for 90+ clients across 300+ QBO instances on a reliable monthly cadence, with a system built to absorb roughly 6 new clients and 15 new instances per month.
• Build the Production System – Standardize close workflows, work papers, and quality controls across our stack (QBO, Xenett, Mango, 90.io) so output is consistent, on-time, and audit-ready regardless of who does the work.
• Scale the Offshore Engine – Continue expanding our offshore partnership toward unlimited capacity, keeping the W2 team focused on final review and clean handoff to Client Delivery.
• Own Throughput & Quality KPIs – Be accountable for close timelines, accuracy, and capacity — escalating risk early and keeping delivery on schedule as the firm scales.

What We're Looking For

• 8+ years in accounting with proven experience scaling and leading a sizable accounting team (controller, global controller, or senior accounting management background).
• Demonstrated experience maintaining and closing books for multiple entities at volume on a recurring monthly cycle.
• Track record building and standardizing close processes, work papers, and quality controls that scale.
• Experience managing blended onshore and offshore (or outsourced) accounting teams.
• Deep…
