Remote

About The Position

Teamworks is a late-stage, high-growth sports technology company serving professional leagues, collegiate athletic departments, Olympic programs, and military organizations worldwide. We're scaling fast, navigating M&A activity, and building toward significant financial milestones. The accounting function needs to keep pace — and that means bringing in a Controller who can own it. The Role Own the monthly close process end-to-end — identify opportunities to make it faster and more accurate, then execute on them Lead all accounting workstreams through M&A activity, including purchase accounting (ASC 805), opening balance sheets, and financial integration — this is active, recurring work across multiple deals, not a one-time event Manage multi-entity consolidations, multi-currency accounting, and international statutory compliance across a footprint that continues to grow through acquisition Build and strengthen internal controls, systems, and processes that scale with the company's growth — and position us well for future audit and financing events Drive cross-functional partnership with FP&A, RevOps, Legal, and functional leadership — translating complex accounting topics into clear financial insights that inform real decisions Develop and grow the accounting team, building toward the scale and structure the business needs Why This Role Most Controller roles ask you to maintain the books. This one asks you to build something. With ongoing M&A activity, an external audit to lead, international expansion in the picture, and a cross-functional leadership team that genuinely wants a seat at the table for Finance — the scope here is real and it grows with you. This is a rare chance to shape how a finance function is built from the inside.

Requirements

  • Active CPA license — this is non-negotiable
  • 8–10 years of progressive accounting experience, including meaningful time in public accounting — Big 4 or large regional firm strongly preferred; the technical foundation this role requires comes from that environment
  • Prior experience as a Controller or Assistant Controller at a SaaS or tech company — you need to have sat in this seat before
  • Hands-on M&A experience, specifically purchase accounting (ASC 805) — you've led these workstreams, not supported them from the sidelines
  • Strong technical accounting knowledge across ASC 606, ASC 718, ASC 350, multi-entity consolidations, and international accounting
  • Experience building or materially improving internal controls in a scaling company
  • Experience leading an external audit process — you've owned the relationship with auditors and managed the process end-to-end
  • People management experience — you've led or mentored an accounting team
  • ERP proficiency, with Intacct experience strongly preferred
  • Based in the Eastern Timezone — this role is fully remote

  • You’ve worked directly with lenders or investors on reporting requirements and covenant compliance
  • You have experience integrating financial systems and collaborating closely with FP&A on planning and reporting
  • You’ve managed international statutory compliance across multiple jurisdictions
