    Job Description




    Assistant Controller


    Ready to step into a hands-on finance leadership role with direct exposure to executive decision-making? This opportunity offers the chance to lead a small team, influence business operations, and grow within a private equity-backed organization.

    Lebanon, OH
    100% onsite but not micromanaged on time

    Target Compensation: $100,000-$125,000 base salary plus bonus potential and incentives

    Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


    • Lead a finance and administration team while partnering directly with the CEO on business operations and strategy.
    • Gain broad exposure across accounting, finance operations, administration, and business decision-making.
    • Join a private equity-backed business with opportunities to expand into group-level finance, M&A, and operational initiatives.
    • Work in a visible leadership role where contributions directly impact company performance and process improvements.
    • Potential for advancement into a Controller-level position for candidates who demonstrate strong performance and leadership.


    Key Responsibilities for the Assistant Controller:


    • Lead and manage the finance and administration team.
    • Oversee accounting operations, month-end close, reconciliations, and financial statement preparation.
    • Manage accounts payable and support customer invoicing, project setup, and contract administration.
    • Coordinate with external tax, audit, and accounting partners.
    • Support operational and financial initiatives while partnering with executive leadership.

    Qualifications for the Assistant Controller:


    • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field required.
    • Progressive accounting and finance experience, preferably within small to mid-sized organizations.
    • Public accounting audit experience or a combination of public accounting and industry experience strongly preferred.
    • Prior experience supervising staff and managing accounting operations.
