Assistant Controller – Public Company Experience Required
$200K–$250K base + bonus | NYC | Full-Time | Onsite
This isn’t a maintenance role. It’s a build-it-better-from-the-inside kind of role.
We’re hiring an Assistant Controller to help overhaul and strengthen the accounting function at a fast-paced, publicly traded services infrastructure company. You'll partner directly with a high-caliber Controller (recently hired) to modernize processes, lead core accounting operations, and restore operational excellence across the board.
Why this role matters:
There’s visibility. There’s leadership. There’s complexity. But more than anything—there’s impact. The company’s in rebuild mode and your work will directly support financial rigor, accuracy, and speed across global operations.
What You’ll Own:
Full-cycle close process oversight (monthly, quarterly, annual)
GL, AP/AR, fixed assets, payroll, and T&E operations
Compliance with US GAAP and SOX
Leading and mentoring accounting teams
Collaborating cross-functionally to streamline systems (Oracle Fusion/FCCS a plus)
Must-Haves:
CPA with 8–12 years of progressive accounting experience
Big 4 public/private background
Experience in a public company environment (US GAAP & SOX is a must)
Demonstrated leadership across GL, AP/AR, fixed assets
Excellent communication and executive presence
Bonus Points For:
IFRS familiarity
Oracle Fusion / Oracle FCCS experience
Prior roles at the Accounting Manager, Senior Manager, Assistant Controller, or Director of Accounting level
