Financial Controller


Salary: $110,000 – $130,000
Location: 100% Onsite. Open to candidates within a reasonable commute range of company headquarters.


Looking to step into a Financial Controller role where your impact goes far beyond the numbers? This is a rare opportunity to blend purpose, leadership, and innovation in a high-visibility environment.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


• Step into a Financial Controller role with direct visibility to executive leadership and board-level reporting
• Join a highly mission-driven organization where your work directly supports meaningful, real-world outcomes
• Lead a modern accounting function that actively embraces AI, automation, and process innovation
• Take ownership as a Financial Controller guiding a strong, established accounting team with long-tenured staff
• Influence strategic financial decisions alongside senior leadership and finance executives
• Enjoy strong work-life rhythm with an efficient close process (~3 days) and flexible environment
• Build and improve systems using Microsoft Business Central and other advanced tools
• Competitive compensation plus bonus eligibility and a strong retirement match
• Opportunity for upward mobility as leadership succession unfolds over the next 12–18 months


Key Responsibilities for the Financial Controller:


• Direct monthly close and deliver accurate, consolidated financial statements
• Oversee general ledger integrity, reconciliations, and financial reporting
• Lead annual audit and manage external audit relationships
• Supervise and develop accounting staff and offshore resources
• Drive process improvement, automation, and system enhancements


Qualifications for the Financial Controller:

• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience
• Hands-on experience with month-end close and audits
• CPA or public accounting experience preferred
