Director of Accounting

Gables Search Group

The Director of Accounting will lead an accounting management team, directly supervise two Controllers that oversee a staff of 20 accountants, and partner closely with the SVP of Financial Operations on strategic initiatives, operational improvements, and departmental direction.

This is far more than a traditional "close the books" accounting role.

The company is looking for someone who can:
• Lead and develop high-performing accounting teams
• Drive accountability, operational efficiency, and process improvement
• Standardize workflows and improve reporting through data and analytics
• Navigate complex financial conversations with boards and leadership teams
• Serve as a technical accounting resource across the organization
• Help scale systems, controls, reporting, and accounting operations
• Partner cross-functionally with operations, IT, training, and business development teams

Additional areas of responsibility include:

Oversight of monthly financial reporting and reviews
Managing complex multi-entity accounting environments
Supporting audits, internal controls, and SSAE-18 / SOC compliance
Leading accounting integrations for acquisitions
Developing KPIs, dashboards, and departmental metrics
Driving technology enhancements and accounting system improvements
Coaching and mentoring Controllers and accounting staff

Ideal background:
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting
• 5+ years of accounting leadership experience
• Strong technical accounting and financial reporting expertise
• Advanced Excel skills including Power Query, macros, pivot tables, and large data analysis
• Experience leading teams
• CPA preferred

The ideal candidate is a forward-thinking accounting leader who thrives in high-volume environments, enjoys solving operational challenges, and knows how to elevate both people and processes.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to step into a strategic leadership role with strong visibility and influence across the organization.
