About The Opportunity: Our client is seeking an experienced, hands-on Controller to join a growing, technology-focused organization in the Akron area. This position offers the opportunity to take full ownership of accounting operations while leveraging technology, AI, and automation to improve processes and drive efficiencies.


The ideal candidate is an experienced accounting professional who enjoys being involved in day-to-day operations, embraces new technology, and is excited to make a meaningful impact within a collaborative, forward-thinking organization.

  • Competitive Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and 401(k) with employer match.

  • Unique Perks: Access to a company vacation property, wellness programs, employee recognition, and team-building activities.

  • Professional Development: Ongoing training, mentorship, and opportunities for continued growth.




Key Responsibilities (Controller):



  • Oversee day-to-day accounting operations, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger, and reconciliations.

  • Manage vendor billing reconciliations and related transactional accounting activities.

  • Prepare and oversee financial reporting, budgeting, and financial analysis.

  • Maintain accurate financial records and ensure strong internal controls.

  • Identify opportunities to improve accounting processes, eliminate inefficiencies, and implement automation.

  • Leverage accounting software, AI, and technology platforms to enhance reporting accuracy and operational efficiency.

  • Support HR-related administrative functions and collaborate with leadership on business operations.

  • Serve as a hands-on accounting leader, balancing strategic oversight with daily accounting responsibilities.




Preferred Qualifications (Controller):



  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Business, or a related field preferred.

  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including hands-on experience with full-cycle AP/AR, reconciliations, and general ledger accounting.

  • Strong understanding of accounting principles, financial reporting, budgeting, and internal controls.

  • Experience within a managed services provider (MSP), technology services, or subscription-billing environment is a plus.
