Job Description

Job Description

We are looking for an experienced Controller to lead accounting operations for an organization in Birmingham. This position is ideal for a hands-on finance leader who can guide a growing team while staying closely involved in the daily accounting cycle. The role offers the opportunity to strengthen financial processes, support operational decision-making, and provide steady leadership during a key transition period.

Responsibilities:

• Direct the monthly, quarterly, and year-end close activities to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting.

• Oversee day-to-day accounting operations, maintaining reliable general ledger activity and balance sheet integrity.

• Monitor cash flow performance and help leadership plan for funding needs, working capital, and financial priorities.

• Lead and develop the accounting team, including supervising direct reports and helping build capability within entry-level staff.

• Take an active, detail-oriented role in accounting tasks rather than operating solely as a high-level people manager.

• Evaluate current procedures and implement practical improvements that increase efficiency, consistency, and control across the accounting function.

• Support ongoing accounting system enhancements, including participation in the transition to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

• Partner with executive leadership and advisors to provide financial insight, resolve issues, and support sound business decisions.

• Ensure compliance with internal policies and assist with audit, tax, and reporting-related requirements as needed.

• Previous experience serving in a Controller role with full ownership of accounting operations.

• Must have CPA

• Strong background in month-end close, financial statement oversight, and balance sheet reconciliation.

• Demonstrated expertise in cash flow management and maintaining accurate financial records.

• Experience working with Sage 100 or Microsoft Business Central is a plus.

• Ability to balance strategic leadership with hands-on execution in a fast-paced accounting environment.

• Comfortable working onsite in Birmingham, Alabama, in a fully in-office setting.
