About the Role
We're hiring a Global Controller to lead and scale our accounting and financial operations organization as we continue to grow a global business across SaaS, payments, multiple entities, and international operations.
Reporting to the CFO, you'll lead the accounting function end-to-end, providing strategic leadership across close, financial reporting, audit, controls, tax, billing, collections, payroll, and finance operations. You'll inherit a strong foundation including clean audits, an established team, and a reliable close. You will help evolve the function to support the company's next phase of growth.
This is an opportunity for an experienced accounting leader who has successfully scaled a controllership through increasing complexity. You're comfortable leading experienced teams, improving operating rhythms, and ensuring the organization is prepared for continued growth, strategic transactions, or an eventual exit.
