  • Leads the accounting integration of acquired businesses into the Company’s consolidated financial reporting structure
  • Oversees internal audit activities and monitors the Company’s overall financial control environment
  • Ensures ongoing compliance with applicable federal and state regulations
  • Serves as the primary liaison to the Company’s external auditor

  • Deep knowledge of GAAP; experience in capital-intensive industries with significant fixed assets and deferred revenue preferred
  • Strong leadership, critical thinking, and communication skills; highly detail-oriented with the ability to manage competing deadlines
  • Public accounting background (Big 4 or regional firm) is a strong plus
  • Experience in a PE-backed or multi-entity private company environment, including familiarity with lender and investor reporting, preferred
  • Proficiency with ERP systems required; NetSuite experience is a plus; familiarity with financial reporting and planning tools such as Adaptive Insights is preferred
