Job description

Our client is a fast-growing aerospace and defense manufacturer that has scaled rapidly through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. This is an entrepreneurial, fast-paced environment where the accounting function is actively being built out to match the company’s growth.

The company is seeking a Senior Controller / VP of Accounting to own consolidated GAAP accounting across multiple entities and bring deep government accounting expertise to a growing, multi-entity organization. This is a strategic, build-it-out role for someone who wants to shape an accounting function, not simply maintain one.

What You’ll Do

Own consolidated GAAP financial reporting across multiple ERP systems, with more entities expected to be added as the company continues to grow through acquisition

Apply deep expertise in government cost accounting, including FAR, CAS, and earned value management

Oversee preparation of monthly financial statements, including income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow, along with the monthly banking package

Manage general ledger reconciliations and trial balance roll-ups across business units

Lead a centralized, shared-services accounting team covering accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and labor accounting

Partner with FP&A and pricing leadership to support broader finance operations

Help design and scale the accounting organization’s structure as the company continues to grow

Build and mentor a growing accounting team, including senior accountants and a fixed-asset accountant

What You Bring

15 years of aerospace and defense accounting experience

5 years leading complex accounting teams

Deep, hands-on experience with FAR, CAS, and earned value management

Experience with multi-entity, multi-ERP consolidation, ideally within a company that has grown through acquisition

A track record of building and scaling accounting processes and teams, not just operating within an existing structure

Comfort operating in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial, ambiguous environment

Strong GAAP technical knowledge and financial statement preparation experience
