Controller

Elite Placement Group

CONTROLLER

FAIRFIELD COUNTY, CT- Hybrid

Reports to CEO | Bonus + Equity Opportunity

Do you enjoy building an accounting function, bringing structure to growing businesses, and working closely with operations?

I’m partnering with an investor-backed services company seeking a hands-on Controller to help build the financial infrastructure for an expanding, acquisition-driven platform.

This is an opportunity to work directly with an experienced CEO and have meaningful influence over how the accounting function develops.

You’ll take ownership of:

• Accounting, financial reporting, month-end close, and internal controls

• Cash management, working capital, budgeting, and forecasting

• Standardizing processes and integrating newly acquired businesses

• Developing reporting and KPIs that help local operators understand profitability

• Managing banking relationships, lender reporting, and outside accounting partners

• Building and developing the accounting team as the company grows

The right person is comfortable moving between leadership conversations and detailed execution. You enjoy solving problems, partnering with operating teams, and rolling up your sleeves; no job too big or too small.

Ideal background:

Senior accounting/finance leadership in a multi-location services or commercial business

Experience building scalable processes and supporting acquisition integration

Strong cash flow, financial controls, and lender-management experience

Comfort working in an entrepreneurial environment with evolving priorities

Bachelor’s degree required; CPA or MBA a plus

Private equity and ERP implementation experience valued

Able to travel, on occasion (nationally)

Competitive base salary, annual performance bonus, equity participation opportunity, and benefits.

Interested in helping build the foundation for the next stage of growth? Message me for a confidential conversation—or share with someone in your network.
