We’re seeking a fun and flexible Controller to join our team and help support our small business clients.  This role is pivotal in supporting entrepreneurs and small business owners to reach their businesses goals.

As the Controller, day-to-day you’ll be working alongside Accountants and CFOs to collaborate and deliver accounting services to a wide range of small businesses.

You’re adaptable

We work primarily with smaller organizations that have big goals. Being adaptable to help meet their needs and goals is a large part of the role. Each client is unique and has different needs, so being able to jump into each client to advise and assist is key.

You’re bursting with initiative

You’re able to properly analyze financials and then take them and communicate them in a way a non-numbers person can understand. You don’t want to wait to be told by a client what they need, you’re able to see from their financials what areas they could improve or automate to reach their goals.

You’re curious and want to dig in

You want to know exactly what drives each business. You want to find processes and procedures that will cater fit each client you work with. You want to continue to learn more and provide things to your clients they didn’t even know they needed.
