We are seeking a Controller to lead our accounting operations and build the infrastructure necessary for public company readiness. Reporting to the Head of Accounting, this role will involve leading all aspects of US accounting operations and consolidation, redesigning accounting operations, strengthening the control environment, and managing a team of accountants.

Responsibilities

• Own the Close: Lead all aspects of US accounting operations and consolidation, delivering accurate, timely financial statements in accordance with GAAP.
• Build for Scale: Redesign the accounting operations from the ground up, establishing best practices, standardizing processes, and creating the infrastructure needed to support IPO readiness and beyond.
• Strengthen the Control Environment: Design, implement, and maintain a robust system of internal controls that safeguards assets, ensures reporting integrity, and meets SEC and regulatory requirements.
• Lead and Develop the Team: Manage and mentor a team of accountants, while also rolling up your sleeves as an individual contributor where needed.
• Champion an Automation Mindset: Identify where AI and automation can uplevel the team, shifting work from manual preparation to high-judgment review and analysis.
• Serve as a Key Financial Liaison: Coordinate with internal stakeholders, external auditors, regulators, and investors, ensuring clear and transparent communication on the company's financial position.

Requirements

• Financial services background required, with experience in a fintech or consumer credit environment.
• 10+ years in accounting/finance, with experience in a leadership role.
• NetSuite power user, comfortable configuring, optimizing, and getting the most out of the platform without outside help.
• Operator at heart, with experience rebuilding or standing up accounting operations.
• Curious about automation, eager to bring an AI mindset to the team.
• SQL familiarity, comfortable reading queries and working cross-functionally with data and FP&A teams.

Qualifications

• Financial services background required — you've worked in a fintech or consumer credit environment and understand the nuanced accounting that comes with it.
• 10+ years in accounting/finance, with experience in a leadership role; you're equally comfortable as a manager and as someone who still gets their hands dirty.
• NetSuite power user — you can configure, optimize, and get the most out of the platform without outside help.
• Operator at heart — you've rebuilt or stood up accounting operations before and know what "good" looks like for a company on the path to IPO.
• Curious about automation — you don't need to be an AI expert, but you should be excited about what it means for the future of accounting and eager to bring that thinking to the team.
• SQL familiarity is a plus — comfortable reading queries and working cross-functionally with data and FP&A teams.

Benefits

• Virtual-first teamwork across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting.
• Competitive pay and generous equity packages.
• Complete support including flexible health plans and substantial subsidies.
