Creative Financial Staffing

Interim Controller
Compensation: $50.00-$70.00/hour (depending on experience)
Location: Tampa, FL | Fully Onsite
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This Interim Controller opportunity offers the chance to step into a highly visible finance leadership role where your expertise will immediately impact the organization. The company is seeking a seasoned accounting leader who can provide stability, strengthen financial operations, and support key business initiatives during a critical period.


As an Interim Controller, you'll serve as a strategic partner to executive leadership while overseeing accounting operations, financial reporting, and process improvement efforts. The Interim Controller will play a key role in driving financial accuracy, enhancing internal controls, and supporting long-term business objectives.


This opportunity is ideal for an Interim Controller who thrives in fast-paced environments, leads teams through change, and can quickly assess challenges and implement effective solutions.
Key Responsibilities of the Interim Controller

  • Lead month-end and year-end close processes while ensuring timely and accurate financial reporting as the Interim Controller
  • Oversee budgeting, forecasting, cash flow management, and financial analysis as the Interim Controller
  • Ensure compliance with GAAP, company policies, and internal control requirements as the Interim Controller
  • Manage, mentor, and develop accounting staff while maintaining accountability and operational excellence as the Interim Controller
  • Partner with executive leadership to provide financial insights, support strategic initiatives, and drive informed business decisions as the Interim Controller
  • Identify opportunities for process improvements, reporting enhancements, and operational efficiencies as the Interim Controller
Qualifications for the Interim Controller
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
  • 7+ years of progressive accounting and finance leadership experience
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP, financial reporting, budgeting, and internal controls
  • CPA preferred
  • ERP system experience highly desired
  • Proven ability to lead teams and manage complex accounting operations
What You'll Gain as the Interim Controller
  • High-impact leadership role with direct visibility to executive leadership
  • Opportunity to influence key business and financial decisions
  • Ability to strengthen accounting processes, controls, and reporting structures
  • Dynamic environment where your expertise is highly valued
  • Meaningful involvement in strategic planning and organizational growth initiatives
  • Competitive hourly compensation based on experience
Who Thrives as the Interim Controller
The ideal Interim Controller is a hands-on financial leader who can quickly assess an organization, establish priorities, and drive results. This Interim Controller is comfortable balancing strategic leadership with operational execution, enjoys mentoring teams, and excels at improving processes while maintaining strong financial discipline. Adaptable, proactive candidates who can make an immediate impact will be highly successful in this role.
