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

Location:
New York, NY – onsite 5 DPW
