Accountant Assistant Controller information

What is an accountant assistant controller?

Accountant Assistant Controllers are finance professionals who support the Controller or Chief Financial Officer in managing an organization's accounting operations. Their responsibilities often include preparing financial statements, ensuring compliance with accounting regulations, managing budgets, and assisting with audits. They also help oversee accounts payable and receivable, and may supervise junior accounting staff. This role is crucial for maintaining accurate financial records and supporting strategic financial planning within a company.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an accountant assistant controller?

To thrive as an Accountant Assistant Controller, you need strong accounting knowledge, attention to detail, and a relevant degree such as a bachelor's in accounting or finance, often accompanied by a CPA or CMA certification. Familiarity with ERP systems like SAP or Oracle, advanced Excel skills, and experience with financial reporting tools are typically required. Excellent organizational, analytical, and communication skills help you collaborate effectively and solve complex financial problems. These competencies are crucial for ensuring accurate financial management, regulatory compliance, and informed decision-making in the organization.

How does an accountant assistant controller typically collaborate with other departments within an organization?

An Assistant Controller frequently works cross-functionally, collaborating with various departments such as operations, sales, and human resources to ensure financial accuracy and compliance. They often help coordinate budget planning, support internal audits, and provide financial insights to support decision-making. Effective communication and teamwork are essential for this role, as Assistant Controllers often translate complex financial data into actionable information for non-financial managers. This collaboration builds relationships across the organization and enhances the overall financial health of the company.

Job description

Title: Staff Accountant / Assistant Controller

Location: Deerfield Beach, FL (Hybrid/In-Office)

Date Posted: 08/06/2026

Compensation: 85,000-140,000 (Depending on Experience)


We are a growing, established construction company with approximately 75+ employees seeking an ambitious Staff Accountant / Assistant Controller to join our internal accounting team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong accounting foundation who is eager to learn, take on increasing responsibility, and build a long-term career with the company.


The ideal candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in accounting and hands-on accounting experience in either public accounting or private industry. Previous construction accounting experience would be a strong plus, but it is not required. We are primarily looking for someone with a positive attitude, strong attention to detail, and a genuine desire to grow into a larger accounting and leadership role over time as our Controller has retired!


Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with day-to-day accounting operations and general ledger maintenance
  • Prepare and post journal entries
  • Support monthly, quarterly, and year-end close processes
  • Perform account and bank reconciliations
  • Assist with accounts payable and accounts receivable functions
  • Help prepare internal financial statements and management reports
  • Maintain accurate supporting documentation and accounting records
  • Assist with budgeting, forecasting, and cash-flow reporting
  • Support job-costing and construction accounting functions as needed
  • Work closely with company leadership and the Controller on special projects
  • Take on additional responsibilities as experience and knowledge grow


What You Need for This Position

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting required
  • Previous hands-on accounting experience in public accounting or private industry
  • Strong understanding of general accounting principles
  • Experience with journal entries, reconciliations, and month-end close preferred
  • Strong Excel and organizational skills
  • Excellent attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines
  • Positive attitude and willingness to learn
  • Desire to grow into an Assistant Controller, Controller, or broader accounting leadership role
  • Construction accounting, job-costing, or percentage-of-completion experience is a plus, but not required


What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out?

  • Long-term career path with increasing responsibilities
  • Opportunity to grow into an Assistant Controller-level position
  • Direct exposure to company leadership and financial operations
  • Stable, established mid sized company
  • Hands-on training and professional development
  • Collaborative and supportive work environment
  • Compensation: 85,000-140,000/Year
  • Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k and more!
