Controller
About The Position
As an experienced Controller, you know the power of clear financial storytelling and disciplined operational leadership. At myHR Partner, you’ll use both to support a company rooted in people-first values - all while working remotely! As our Controller, you will serve as the top finance leader, reporting directly to our COO and joining our leadership team. You will fully own and operate the finance and accounting function as we transition away from outsourced partners - taking charge of everything from day-to-day accounting to strategic financial planning. This includes hands-on work in QuickBooks, Harvest, and Excel, along with streamlining processes, strengthening controls, and modernizing our financial systems. You will also help build the future structure of the finance department. While the role is currently a highly hands-on leadership position, there is room to hire additional support as the function grows. Some quarterly travel for leadership team meetings may be required, though these sessions are occasionally held remotely. This is a high-impact role for someone who wants both ownership and influence in a growing, people-first organization.
