100% Remote, Own the Books, Controller-Level Role

Accounting Manager (multiple companies)

We are a privately held operating and investment group with multiple businesses across technology, services, e-commerce, R&D, and operating companies. We are hiring one exceptional Accounting Manager / Controller to own accounting across the entire portfolio. This is not a narrow “bookkeeper” role and not a big-company CFO role. This is a hands-on ownership role with a clear path to becoming CFO of the holdings company for the right person.

 

The Role

You will own the books end-to-end across multiple entities and work directly with the owner. You’ll be responsible for accuracy, timeliness, and clarity of financials - not just compliance. You need to have personally owned full-cycle Accounting and month-end close without supervision

 

If you enjoy clean closes, fixing messy systems, and being accountable for real numbers, this role will fit you well.

 

Key Responsibilities

Accounting & Close

  • Own full-cycle accounting for multiple entities
  • Monthly close with reconciled balance sheets
  • Accurate P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow reporting
  • Maintain clean, CPA-ready books at all times

Cash & Operations

  • Daily visibility into cash position
  • Manage AR/AP and loan tracking (including SBA loans)
  • Intercompany transactions and reconciliations
  • Support acquisitions, new entity setup, and transitions

Reporting & Analysis

  • Prepare owner-level financial summaries
  • Explain variances and anomalies (not just report numbers)
  • Build and maintain schedules in Excel (loans, cash, etc.)

CPA & External Coordination

  • Prepare clean packages for external tax CPAs
  • Coordinate audits, lender requests, and due diligence
  • Research accounting treatments and present options when needed

  • Hands-on
  • Fast-paced
  • Ownership-driven
  • Detail-intensive

This role is NOT:

  • A passive reporting role
  • A narrow AP/AR job
  • A place to hide behind process or bureaucracy

 

Required Experience

  • 3+ years of hands-on accounting experience
  • Owned books end-to-end (not just assisted)
  • Multi-entity accounting experience
  • Strong knowledge of GAAP fundamentals
  • Deep experience with QuickBooks (Online and/or Desktop)
  • Strong Excel skills (reconciliations, schedules, analysis)

 

Ideal Background (Nice to Have!)

  • Experience with small or mid-sized owner-led companies
  • SBA loan or acquisition accounting exposure
  • Comfortable operating in imperfect, evolving environments
  • Experience working directly with founders or owners

 

Personal Traits We Value

  • Extremely detail-oriented
  • High ownership mentality
  • Calm under pressure
  • Responsive and accountable
  • Curious and willing to research unfamiliar issues
  • Hungry to grow into a larger leadership role over time
