Controller, Accounting, Financial Reporting

Gly Med+, "The Brand of the Skincare Professional™," is seeking a Controller to lead our accounting function. For over 35 years Gly Med+ has been an industry leader in professional skincare, providing clinical-grade, results-driven products, cutting-edge education, and solutions that support licensed skincare professionals and the clients they treat, in more than 130 countries.

This is a hands-on leadership role reporting to the SVP of Accounting & Technology, with two direct reports: a Staff Accountant and a Bookkeeper/Administrative Assistant. You will own the close, the controls, payroll, and every commission and incentive calculation the company pays, in a business that is scaling quickly and formalizing its financial operations at the same time. The role is based in our Pleasant Grove, Utah office on a hybrid schedule of four days in office and one day from home.

Financial Reporting and Close

• Own the month-end and year-end close, including journal entries, accruals, and balance sheet reconciliations.
• Prepare accurate financial statements and management reporting in accordance with GAAP.
• Maintain a comprehensive and well-documented system of accounting records.
• Manage the general ledger and chart of accounts, and maintain account substantiation across every posting account.
• Support FP&A, including budgeting, forecasting, KPI reporting, ROI analysis, and treasury.

Internal Controls

• Design, document, and operate internal controls across all transaction cycles, to a standard that withstands outside diligence.
• Serve as the review layer over work prepared by the accounting team, and maintain segregation of duties within a small department.
• Coordinate outside audits, reviews, and the corporate tax return with our external CPA and tax firm.
• Identify control gaps proactively and close them, rather than waiting for them to be found.

Payroll

• Own semi-monthly payroll end to end in BambooHR, including off-cycle runs, timekeeping review, and FLSA overtime calculation.
• Administer payroll tax, multi-state registrations and filings, and year-end W-2 reporting.
• Process merit increases, retroactive pay, and compensation changes, and maintain the supporting documentation for each.
• Reconcile benefit deductions, 401(k) contributions and remittances, and the related liability accounts, in partnership with our plan administrator.
• Build and reconcile expense and mileage reimbursement batches against the payroll register.
• Partner with Human Resources on anything employee-facing, and handle compensation data with discretion.

Commission and Incentive Calculation

• Calculate and administer monthly and quarterly Inside Sales incentives across a four-component plan: new-account commission, retention bonus, year-over-year territory growth, and promotion-specific incentives.
• Calculate outside sales and brand ambassador commissions, including contract independent representatives.
• Administer Regen Retail revenue-share payouts and maintain the related accounts payable.
• Calculate distributor and international account manager commissions.
• Produce the monthly Education bonus calculation against per-class rates and eligibility requirements.
• Supply the financial inputs behind director-level bonus programs.
• Build every calculation from system data rather than by hand, and document each one so it is reproducible, reviewable, and not dependent on one person.

Operations and Systems

• Manage accounts payable, accounts receivable, billing, cash application, collections, fixed assets, and insurance administration.
• Own average-cost inventory accounting, assembly builds and bills of material, the annual physical count, the cycle count program, and the reconciliation of item receipts to vendor bills.
• Ensure compliance with multi-state sales tax filings and government reporting.
• Own the accounting side of our system integrations, including payment settlement and deposit matching, and resolve integration exceptions rather than letting them accumulate.
• Maintain and extend accounting systems, and automate manual processes wherever a control can be built in rather than bolted on.
• Administer pricing, vendor management, and banking relationships, and support corporate account requirements including EDI and negotiated terms.

Leadership

• Lead, develop, and hold accountable a team of two, with room to grow as the company scales.
• Write and maintain the documentation and procedures for everything this department does.
• Communicate clearly with department heads across the company, and provide…
