Now Hiring: Corporate Controller

Multi-State Organization | Private Equity-Backed | High-Growth Environment

Are you a hands-on accounting leader who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth environments? Do you have experience building scalable processes, leading multi-location teams, and supporting M& A integration? If so, this could be a standout opportunity. A private equity-backed, multi-state operating company is seeking an experienced Corporate Controller to lead the accounting function during an exciting period of expansion through both acquisitions and greenfield growth. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who can bring structure, standardization, and strategic financial oversight across a growing platform.

What you’ll own:

  • Monthly, quarterly, and annual close across multiple entities and locations

  • Consolidated financial reporting, board packages, KPI dashboards, and lender reporting

  • GAAP compliance, internal controls, and multi-state accounting consistency

  • Leadership and development of accounting teams across locations

  • M& A accounting integration, systems alignment, and playbook development

  • Accounting infrastructure for new site launches

  • Audit, tax, treasury, budgeting, and process improvement initiatives

  • ERP optimization and scalability efforts, including strong NetSuite usage

Why this role stands out: This is more than a traditional Controller position — it’s an opportunity to help shape the accounting foundation of a business in active growth mode. You’ll partner closely with senior leadership, support integration strategy, and play a key role in scaling the organization for the future.

Requirements

What we’re looking for:

  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience

  • 3+ years in a Controller or senior accounting leadership role

  • Strong background in multi-entity / multi-location accounting

  • Experience in private equity-backed organizations strongly preferred

  • M& A due diligence and post-acquisition integration experience

  • Deep knowledge of GAAP, internal controls, and multi-state tax compliance

  • Advanced Excel and ERP exposure

  • CPA preferred
