Who We're Looking For

We're looking for a highly organized, operationally strong Financial Controller who can oversee multi-entity financial operations with precision, accountability, and zero tolerance for errors.

This is not a basic bookkeeping role. The Financial Controller acts as the operational backbone of the finance function — ensuring all entities remain reconciled, compliant, audit-ready, and financially organized at all times.

The ideal candidate is proactive, detail-oriented, systems-minded, and capable of independently managing AP, reconciliations, payroll, compliance, banking, and reporting across multiple entities without constant oversight.

You should thrive in high-accountability environments, communicate proactively, and understand how to maintain financial hygiene inside fast-moving companies.

What You'll Own

  • Oversee weekly and monthly close processes across multiple entities

  • Maintain fully reconciled financials with zero uncategorized balances

  • Manage AP workflows, vendor payments, W-9/1099 documentation, and approval tracking

  • Monitor cash flow, account balances, and tax reserve schedules proactively

  • Manage payroll processing and reconciliation through Deel

  • Maintain organized, audit-ready financial records and data rooms

  • Coordinate with CPAs, legal teams, FP&A, and leadership across reporting and compliance workflows

  • Support automation of reconciliation and reporting systems using available integrations and tools

  • Maintain budget-to-actuals tracking and flag anomalies or risks proactively

  • Ensure compliance, filing deadlines, and internal financial controls remain current and organized

Workflow & Collaboration

  • Work directly with the CEO, FP&A, Senior Bookkeeper, CPAs, and legal partners

  • Maintain finance visibility and workflow tracking inside ClickUp

  • Deliver structured financial updates proactively without requiring follow-up

  • Escalate risks, missing approvals, or operational blockers early

  • Support cross-functional operational and strategic finance discussions when needed

What We Need From You

  • Experience managing multi-entity financial operations, reconciliations, and close processes

  • Strong understanding of U.S. GAAP, AP/AR workflows, compliance, and audit readiness

  • Experience with QuickBooks Online, Deel, ClickUp, and modern finance operations tools

  • Strong operational discipline, organization, and documentation management

  • Ability to manage sensitive financial workflows with accuracy and discretion

  • Proactive communication and strong ownership mentality

  • Comfort operating independently in fast-moving environments

  • Experience supporting founders, startups, or high-growth companies is strongly preferred

Who Thrives Here

This role is best suited for someone who:

  • Notices inconsistencies and resolves them quickly

  • Operates with high precision and accountability

  • Thinks in systems, controls, and operational structure

  • Escalates issues before they become problems

  • Maintains calm under pressure and shifting priorities

  • Takes ownership without waiting for reminders or direction
