• Lead system optimization: Act as in-house expert for ERP and expense/AP platforms, driving automation and AI-enabled efficiencies.
• Build scalable infrastructure: Implement processes that support organic growth and acquisitions.
• Partner with operations: Deliver actionable financial insights, support budgeting/forecasting, and build KPI dashboards.
• Support M&A: Assist with due diligence, onboarding, and financial integration.
• Lead & develop teams: Build a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.

What You Will Bring

• Active CPA and Bachelor's in Accounting or Finance
• 10+ years progressive accounting/finance experience (5+ as Controller or similar)
• Strong background in accounting operations, financial reporting, and internal controls
• Experience implementing automation or AI tools in finance

• Willingness to travel as needed (Utah and Georgia)

• Compensation commensurate with your qualifications, experience, and other factors including geographic location, market and operational factors.
• Total Rewards include: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, Disability Insurance, 401(k) Savings Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Professional Development Program, Paid Time Off and Paid Sick Time (in geographies where legally required).
