Job description

Job Title: Controller
Location: Buffalo, NY
Employment Type: Direct Hire
Compensation: $120,000 - $130,000
Schedule: Hybrid

Why You'll Love Working Here: Our client is a fast-growing holding company that is scaling quickly across their operating companies. 

Why This Opportunity is Exciting: The Controller is a strategic financial partner to the CEO and the person who makes sure the books close cleanly every month. This is a builder's seat at a company that's scaling fast. You'll inherit a small, capable team that already handles the majority of day-to-day transactional work. Your job is to lead them and build the financial infrastructure a multi-entity roll up needs to keep growing. Our client is seeking someone who's a thought leader on strategy and capital but who will also roll up their sleeves and get the day-to-day done.

What You'll Do: 
Finance Strategy & Accounting
 
• Serve as the CEO's primary financial partner on strategy, capital allocation, and pricing
 • Build and own FP&A: budgeting, forecasting, cash-flow planning, and unit economics our businesses Manage banking, lending, and debt relationships; optimize working capital across inventory-heavy businesses
 • Run accurate, timely financials — P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow at both the entity and consolidated level
 • Maintain strong internal controls, intercompany accounting, and a clean audit trail
 • Translate numbers into decisions: tell us where we're making money, where we're not, and what to do about it
 • Oversee AP, AR, payroll, and tax coordination
 • Manage inventory accounting and costing across distribution, auction, and 3PL operations
 • Drive the financial side of acquisitions — diligence, valuation, deal structuring, and post-close integration as we continue to roll up the space
 • Own the monthly close, consolidations, and reporting across 4–6 legal entities
 Treasury & Cash Flow
 • Own weekly cash visibility across all entities and bank accounts, and maintain short-term cash-flow forecasts
 • Track LOC usage, debt service, and liquidity risk — flagging funding needs and timing issues to leadership early
 • Support financing requests, credit applications, and lender reporting
 Revenue & Margin Analysis
 • Analyze revenue and gross margin by channel
 • Surface margin compression, channel-mix shifts, and pricing issues
 • Connect financial results to actual inventory movement and sell-through
 Tax, Compliance & Insurance
 • Oversee sales tax reporting, remittance, and exemption certificates across applicable states
 • Coordinate multi-entity tax planning and filings with outside CPAs
 • Manage insurance renewals, certificates of insurance, claims, and audits
 • Serve as the primary financial point of contact for audit, insurance brokers, lenders, and banks
 Team & systems
 • Lead and develop the existing small, capable finance team
 • Choose, implement, and improve the financial systems
 • Build the repeatable processes and reporting cadence that a growing roll up depends on

What You'll Bring: 
• Proven experience as a Controller, or Director of Finance, ideally having done both strategic and hands-on accounting work
• Startup or high-growth experience — you've operated where things are unfinished and built structure from scratch
• Multi-entity accounting and consolidation experience
• Genuinely hands-on: comfortable in the GL and the spreadsheets, not just the boardroom
• Strong command of cash management and working capital in an inventory- or asset-heavy business
• The scrappy, get-it-done mindset that matches how we operate

What Sets You Apart:
• CPA designation
• Experience in distribution, wholesale, logistics/3PL, manufacturing, or another inventory-intensive industry
• M&A / integration experience (diligence, deal structuring, folding acquired companies into the parent)
• Experience managing remote and/or offshore team members
