Job Details
An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced finance operations leader to oversee a global outsourced finance shared services organization and drive operational excellence across core accounting functions. Reporting to the VP & Corporate Controller, this role focuses on governance, performance management, internal controls, and continuous improvement rather than hands-on, high-volume transaction processing.

Key Responsibilities
* Oversee an outsourced finance shared services organization supporting approximately 20–25 offshore professionals.
* Serve as the primary liaison with the external service provider, managing performance, staffing, service levels, and operational effectiveness.
* Provide oversight across accounts payable, accounts receivable, cash application, account reconciliations, journal entries, and month-end close support.
* Establish and monitor KPIs, operational scorecards, and service-level agreements (SLAs) to drive accountability and service quality.
* Strengthen internal controls, SOX compliance, segregation of duties, and audit readiness.
* Identify opportunities to improve workflows, automate processes, and increase efficiency across finance operations.
* Partner with Accounting, Treasury, FP&A, IT, Internal Audit, and other business leaders to support organizational goals.
* Lead and develop an internal FinOps / Controls Analyst.
Qualifications
* Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business.
* 8–12+ years of progressive experience in accounting operations or finance.
* Experience overseeing outsourced finance shared services, global business services, or third-party BPO providers.
* Background in a publicly traded company with a strong understanding of SOX and internal controls.
* Experience with ERP systems; NetSuite experience is preferred.
* Strong leadership, analytical, communication, and process improvement skills.
* CPA designation is a plus.
