Controller (Contract) – Accounting & Finance | On-Site (Cranberry, PA Area)
A growing and well-established organization is seeking a hands-on Controller (contract) to support their team during a high-volume, fast-paced period. This is a critical role for someone who can step in immediately, provide leadership, and ensure accounting operations stay on track.
This is a full-time, on-site opportunity.
About the Role
This is a high-impact, roll-up-your-sleeves Controller role. You will operate at both a strategic and tactical level—leading the team while also jumping into the day-to-day accounting work as needed.
The environment is fast-paced, and processes may not be fully defined, so this role requires someone who is comfortable bringing structure, identifying gaps, and improving workflows.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and support core accounting functions, including:
- Account reconciliations
- Journal entries
- Month-end close activities
- Provide leadership and direction to the accounting team while serving as a key presence in the office
- Step in across AR, AP, and general accounting functions as needed to support business demands
- Identify process gaps, inefficiencies, and issues—and proactively implement solutions and improvements
- Help stabilize and organize accounting workflows during a high-demand period
- Support timely financial reporting and operational execution
What We're Looking For
- Strong accounting background with the ability to perform at a Senior Accountant level and above
- Leadership experience with the ability to guide and support a team
- A proactive self-starter who can identify priorities and take ownership without direction
- Proven ability to find problems, solve issues, and improve processes
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, evolving environments with limited structure
- Willingness to be both hands-on and strategic
- ERP experience preferred (NetSuite or similar is a plus, but not required)
Work Environment
- On-site, full-time role
- Flexible start times (early morning start preferred)
- Collaborative but high-demand environment where teamwork and adaptability are key
Why This Role
- Opportunity to step into a critical leadership role and make an immediate impact
- High visibility with leadership and cross-functional teams
- Potential for longer-term opportunity based on performance
