Interim Assistant Controller
About the role
We are ARB Interactive, the team behind Modo Casino, one of the top Social+ platforms in the US. Founded in 2022, we've grown to nearly 200 team members and were named one of LinkedIn's 2025 Top 50 Startups in the United States. We move fast, think big, and love bold ideas that push boundaries (and buttons). From new rewards to fresh game mechanics, every challenge is a chance to innovate and have fun doing it. Our culture is collaborative, curious, and full of laughter because great ideas grow best between coffee, code, and a few epic high-fives. ARB Interactive is looking for an Interim Assistant Controller to partner directly with our SVP of Finance on a focused, high-impact six-month engagement, with a genuine path to a permanent seat. This is a remote, U.S.-based, full-time contract role built for a CPA who wants real ownership of close, audit, and treasury from day one, not busywork on the sidelines.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the review checkpoint between our Accounting Manager and the SVP of Finance, reviewing journal entries, reconciliations, and balance sheet support, with the authority to send work back for correction.
- Own preparation of consolidated financial statements with footnote disclosures under U.S. GAAP across our multi-entity structure.
- Own the annual audit process: manage the PBC list, timeline, and auditor relationship; prepare audit-ready workpapers and resolve auditor questions directly (final sign-off remains with the SVP of Finance).
- Support cash positioning, bank relationships, and intercompany cash movements across entities; assist with cash flow forecasting, liquidity monitoring, and debt or covenant tracking.
- Prepare monthly and quarterly reporting packages for executive leadership, including consolidated financials, KPIs, and variance commentary; act as a thought partner to the SVP of Finance on close process improvements, audit readiness, and treasury-related special projects.
Requirements
- Active CPA license.
- 5+ years of audit experience at a Big 4 or large national or regional public accounting firm, including direct experience leading or co-leading a financial statement audit from the company side.
- Strong technical U.S. GAAP knowledge, including revenue recognition (ASC 606), consolidations, and financial statement and footnote preparation.
