Love consulting, client variety, and leading the room—but hate the public accounting grind?

At Vessel Advisors, we deliver financial clarity and operational certainty to growth-stage CEOs. We operate as an outsourced financial executive team, blending strategic finance, accounting systems, and data-driven insights.

We are expanding our core team with a full-time Consulting Controller who thrives in dynamic, multi-client environments. If you have a foundation in public accounting/audit, love stepping into ambiguous client setups, and possess elite executive presence to lead in-person assessments, this role was built for you.

Why Join Vessel Advisors?

• No 80-Hour Busy Seasons: Enjoy high-impact, multi-client advisory work with predictable travel and remote flexibility.
• True Advisory Focus: You won’t just manage a ledger; you will facilitate intensive onsite assessments, advise C-suite leaders, and design financial roadmaps that directly impact client bottom lines.
• Ownership & Growth: Lead end-to-end client engagements and work directly alongside former Big 4 and CFO practice leaders.

Core Responsibilities

• Lead Onsite Financial Assessments: Facilitate 2–3 day in-person discovery sessions with growth-stage CEOs and executive teams to evaluate financial health, internal controls, and operational bottlenecks.
• Deliver Strategic Recommendations: Author comprehensive assessment reports and partner with Vessel CFOs/Advisors to present actionable financial roadmaps to client leadership.
• Fractional Controller Leadership: Serve as the lead Controller across a portfolio of recurring clients, managing month-end close quality, budget/forecast builds, and accounting system optimizations.
• Drive Clean-Up & Integration: Step into complex financial setups, identify risk areas, and establish internal controls to make client books "audit-ready."
• Lead Teams & Contractors: Direct and review the work of supporting accounting staff and specialized contractors to ensure quality, budget, and scope targets are met.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• Public Accounting Roots: 3–5+ years of foundational experience in financial audit, assurance, or risk advisory at a public accounting firm. CPA license is a bonus, okay if inactive.

• Room Facilitator & Executive Presence: Exceptional ability to lead in-person discovery meetings, command a room of executive stakeholders, and navigate complex conversations with composure.
• Tech-Savvy & Systems Mindset: High proficiency in cloud accounting platforms (QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Sage Intacct) and modern finance tech stacks.
• Proactive Project Manager: Obsessively organized, agile when travel schedules shift, and comfortable operating in a 95% Slack / 70% client email environment.
