Job Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Corporate Controller to join our dynamic finance team.

This role requires a strong background in SaaS, e-commerce, and payments, with a focus on providing accurate and timely financial insights to support decision-making.

Key Responsibilities
  • Manage and perform day-to-day accounting operations, including all general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and equity-based compensation functions.
  • Lead the month-end close process, including preparation of financial statements, ensuring accuracy and compliance with GAAP.
  • Establish and improve accounting processes and framework for internal controls, design for scalability and growth, including the development of key deliverables (financial analyses, reconciliations, management reporting).
  • Manage cash flow, ensuring adequate liquidity for operations and growth initiatives.
  • Manage the preparation, review, and filing of all tax returns by working closely with external tax consultants.
  • Position the company to complete its first external financial audit.
  • Support the CFO with fundraising activities, including financial modeling, due diligence, and investor reporting as needed.
  • Prepare reporting and analysis for senior management, the Board of Directors, and the investment community.
  • Coordinate with FP&A on the annual budgeting process and provide support for ongoing analysis of financial performance.
  • Evaluate accounting software and develop a roadmap of key systems and integrations required to drive automation and efficiency across the entire company as we scale.
Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance, MBA preferred.
  • CPA (Certified Public Accountant) designation required.
  • Minimum of 15 years relevant work experience with at least 6 years at a Big 4 accounting firm.

  • Outstanding verbal and written communication skills; ability to effectively communicate status, issues, risks, and opportunities to all levels of the organization.
  • Excellent multi-tasking skills and flexibility to switch from one project to the next.
  • Equally comfortable operating at 10,000 feet and one foot. You do not hesitate to get in the weeds and work at the lowest level of detail, but you are just as comfortable thinking long-term and inspiring a team.
  • Unafraid of ambiguity. Rapid change and learning excite you, and you know how to find direction and craft a plan of action even when none is given.
  • Highest standards of accuracy and precision; highly organized.
What We Offer
  • The estimated base salary range for this role is $200,000 - $240,000 per year.
