About this opportunity
SNI Financial lists this Corporate Controller opportunity in fort worth, Texas. Review the employer’s description below for duties, qualifications and application requirements.
Job description
I’m partnering confidentially with a privately held, founder and family-owned transportation and logistics company based in Fort Worth seeking a Controller.
This organization generates approximately $200M in annual revenue and operates with a long-term, owner-operator mindset. There is no private equity pressure and no public market noise.
Decisions are practical, and the business is known for strong operational execution and financial discipline.
This is a key leadership role reporting directly to the CFO and owning the accounting function for a growing, asset-intensive platform.
Why This Role Stands Out
True right-hand partnership with the CFO
Stable, founder-led ownership with long-term focus
Operationally complex, asset-intensive environment
Opportunity to elevate processes, controls, and reporting infrastructure
Full-time, in-office leadership environment with flexibility
The Opportunity
The Controller will lead the accounting operations of the company and ensure scalable, GAAP-compliant financial processes aligned with continued growth.
Oversee day-to-day accounting operations and team workflows
Maintain documented policies, procedures, and internal controls
Oversee subsidiary accounting and transaction control environments
Manage outsourced accounting and third-party relationships
Deliver timely monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements
Develop financial and operating KPIs
Analyze budget-to-actual variances and communicate insights to leadership
Prepare cost reporting and financial analyses to support operational decision-making
Lead cash management and risk oversight
Monitor debt levels and ensure compliance with lender covenants
Support capital investment analysis and pricing decisions
Coordinate annual audit and serve as primary liaison with external auditors
Ensure compliance with local, state, and federal reporting requirements
Ideal Background
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance
8+ years of progressive accounting experience
Experience owning close, reporting, and audit relationships
Background in asset-intensive or operationally complex environments preferred
Prior Controller or Assistant Controller experience is a plus
Exposure to transportation, logistics, energy services, or similar industries is beneficial
This role requires a hands-on leader who can operate in a fast-paced environment, meet deadlines, and communicate clearly with both finance and operational leadership.
Compensation
If you are a Controller or senior accounting leader seeking a stable platform, direct CFO visibility, and long-term growth within a founder-led business, this is a high-quality opportunity worth exploring.
