Job Description

Controller

This is a chance to run the full accounting function at a growing IT staffing firm, with a direct line to the CEO and a real voice in how the business grows. You’ll own the close, the general ledger and the reporting leadership relies on to make decisions, and you’ll lead a small team that looks to you for answers. At a company our size, your work shows up in every decision we make. We’re also building AI into our finance and reporting work, and you’ll have a big hand in how that takes shape. As ITC grows, this role grows with it, with room to take on more of the finance strategy over time.

As part of our process after applying, you may receive an invitation from our AI Recruiter Avery for a short conversation that lets you share more about your background beyond your resume. For questions, contact .

• Job Type: Full-time, direct hire with ITC | Expected Start Date Jan 2027
• Location: Nashville, TN (Hybrid)
• Compensation: This job is expected to pay about $140,000 to $155,000 per year, plus bonus
• No Visa Sponsorship Available for this role. No C2C

What You’ll Do:

• Lead the month-end, quarter-end and year-end close, including review of financial statements and adjusting entries
• Own the general ledger, journal entries, accruals and account reconciliations
• Oversee billing, payroll accounting, commissions, AP and AR, and resolve discrepancies across systems
• Supervise and mentor a two-person team handling invoicing, timesheets, expenses and collections, and step in on the work when needed
• Build annual budgets and rolling forecasts, and track actual results against them
• Deliver reporting and analysis on margin, cash flow and collections that leadership can act on
• Work with our outside CPA firm on corporate and multistate tax filings
• Find ways to use AI and better reporting to reduce manual work and improve accuracy

What Gets You the Job: 

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting (CPA is a plus, not a requirement)
• 5+ years of hands-on accounting experience, including owning the month-end close. Some experience supervising a small team preferred
• Background at a small, growing company where you owned the full accounting cycle. Candidates from large or enterprise finance teams are not a fit for this role
• Strong QuickBooks Enterprise and advanced Excel skills. Bullhorn Back Office experience is a plus
• Experience with budgeting, forecasting and financial reporting
• Experience working with outside CPAs on corporate tax; multistate experience is a plus
• Staffing industry experience strongly preferred. Other businesses with weekly payroll and hourly billing will also be considered
