We’re hiring a Controller to lead the finance function and serve as a strategic partner to executive leadership. This role owns financial reporting, budgeting/forecasting, cash management, and internal controls—while helping translate business goals into clear financial plans and decision-ready insights. In this role, you’ll own the full financial operation— accounting, close & reporting, cash/treasury, forecasting, controls, and regulatory reporting —while also partnering with executive leadership on strategic planning, growth initiatives, and M&A activity .

If you love building a finance function that leadership can truly trust—and you’re equally comfortable in board-level strategy conversations and rolling up your sleeves in the monthly close—this role is built for you.

Responsibilities

• Lead the finance function end-to-end : accounting operations, monthly/quarterly/annual close, financial statements, management reporting, and audit coordination.
• Drive financial strategy and visibility : budgets, forecasts, long-range planning, modeling, dashboards/KPIs, and clear insights on performance, trends, risks, and opportunities.
• Own cash and financial controls : cash-flow forecasting, banking/treasury, receivables oversight, payment authorization controls, and a strong internal control environment.
• Support growth and transactions : evaluate investments/partnerships and lead finance workstreams for M&A (modeling, due diligence, deal support, and post-close integration).

Candidate Requirements

• 8+ years of progressive finance/accounting leadership with deep experience in financial statements, general ledger ownership, close, forecasting, and cash management.
• Strong command of GAAP , audit readiness, and building/strengthening internal controls in a growing organization.
• Demonstrated ability to be both strategic and hands-on —able to translate complex financial information into clear, actionable guidance for non-financial leaders.
• Healthcare/insurance finance expertise (health insurance, stop-loss/reinsurance, TPA, self-funded plans, or similar) and/or proven ability to learn complex, regulated financial environments quickly; CPA strongly preferred .

Preferred (nice to have)

• Insurance accounting/reporting exposure (claims, loss ratios, reserves, reconciliations across partners)
• Experience with valuation, transaction modeling, quality of earnings, diligence, or integrations
• Building scalable finance infrastructure (systems, reporting, processes) in an entrepreneurial environment
