Our client, a financially stable and steadily expanding organization, is seeking a driven Assistant Controller to join their team. This is a high-impact role offering strong visibility to leadership, reporting directly to the Controller, and playing a key part in shaping the company’s accounting operations.

If you’re looking for a position where you can grow your career, lead a team, and make a meaningful contribution, this opportunity offers the right blend of stability, advancement potential, and a collaborative, team-oriented culture.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Supportive, team-driven environment
  • Strong leadership exposure and mentorship
  • Competitive compensation and benefits package, including:
    • Subsidized medical, dental, and vision insurance
    • 401(k) with company participation
    • Generous PTO

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Lead and mentor accounting staff
  • Drive and manage the month-end close process
  • Review and approve journal entries to ensure accuracy and compliance
  • Support budgeting and forecasting efforts, including analysis and reporting
  • Strengthen internal controls and help implement process improvements
  • Manage key accounting functions including revenue recognition and lease accounting
  • Oversee general ledger activity and ensure financial integrity
  • Assist with audits and ensure regulatory compliance
  • Support cash management and financial operations
  • Partner cross-functionally to support broader business initiatives
  • Other duties as assigned

This is an excellent opportunity for an accounting professional ready to step into a leadership role and contribute to a company that values both performance and people.

Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in accounting or finance
  • CPA preferred
  • 7+ years’ of progressive accounting experience
  • Previous management experience preferred
  • Ability to communicate clearly in both written and verbal correspondence
  • Commitment to detailed financial accounting and reporting
