Job description

Corporate Controller

Are you the one people trust when the numbers must be right… and the story behind them has to be clear?

  • Do you see beyond the close process and understand what the numbers are telling the business?
  • Can you build a team that delivers accuracy, accountability, and continuous improvement?
  • Are you just as comfortable in the details as you are advising leaders on what comes next?

If so, this role was built for you.

Who you’ll work for…

At Palermo’s, pizza is more than a product. It is part of a family tradition that started generations ago when Papa Palermo brought cherished Sicilian recipes to America. Today, that passion continues as we create high quality pizzas that are enjoyed across the country.

Palermo’s Pizza is a family-owned company driven by a passion for quality, innovation, and people. We are a leader in private label frozen pizza and contract manufacturing, known for our speed, collaboration, and ability to execute.

Our Finance team plays a critical role in enabling smart, data-driven decisions across the business. As we continue to grow, we are building stronger financial processes, better insights, and a more connected partnership between Finance and the business.

Perks…
  • Competitive compensation and bonus opportunity
  • Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • A leadership role with visibility and impact across the organization
  • Opportunity to shape and improve financial processes and systems
  • And yes… free pizza….20 per month
Where you’ll work…

This position is based at Villa Palermo in Milwaukee’s Menomonee River Valley.

Villa Palermo is a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility connected to our company headquarters. Our operations include an onsite bakery producing our signature pizza crusts, advanced packaging technology, and a 24-hour distribution operation that supports customers across the country.

This is a highly visible role that interacts regularly with senior leaders and plays a key role in business decision-making.

What you’ll do…

You will lead the accounting function and ensure the financial foundation of the business is accurate, reliable, and actionable.

Responsibilities include:

  • Leading financial reporting and the monthly, quarterly, and annual close
  • Overseeing Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, General Accounting, Tax, and Risk Management
  • Ensuring compliance with GAAP, internal controls, and audit standards
  • Building and developing a high-performing accounting team
  • Partnering with leaders to translate financial data into business insights
  • Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning
  • Driving process improvement, automation, and system optimization
  • Strengthening internal controls and financial discipline across the organization
Why you’ll be successful…
  • You don’t just close the books — you understand what the numbers mean and help others understand them too.
  • You bring structure and discipline to accounting operations, while also building strong relationships across the business.
  • You lead with accountability, develop your team, and continuously look for better, more efficient ways to operate.
  • You are equally comfortable:
  • getting into the details
  • challenging assumptions
  • and influencing decisions
What you’ll bring…
  • Strong accounting and financial reporting expertise
  • Experience leading AP, AR, and general accounting teams
  • Deep understanding of GAAP, internal controls, and audit processes
  • Experience supporting budgeting and forecasting
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to translate financial data into business insights
  • ERP experience (Oracle Fusion preferred)
  • A mindset focused on ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement
