Job description
A growing $100M+ sales and distribution company is seeking a Controller to lead the accounting function across its North American operations.

Direct partnership with the Finance and GM with visibility across the organization
Opportunity to influence accounting processes, controls, systems and reporting
Progression opportunity to take on broader responsibilities including multiple sites
Excellent work-life balance and a culture that respects life outside of work
WHAT YOU’LL LEAD
Accounting and consolidated financial reporting across multiple entities and locations
Monthly, quarterly and annual close
Leadership of the accounting team
Company-wide accounting policies, internal controls and reporting standards
External audit and key financial relationships
Process, systems, controls and reporting improvements across the organization
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance or related field
Strong GAAP, financial reporting, consolidations and internal controls experience
Manufacturing or distribution experience is a plus
CPA is a plus
If you’re a Controller looking for a growing company where you can have a meaningful impact, or an Assistant Controller ready for the next step, I’d be interested in connecting.
