In this role, you will prepare financial statements, summarize and forecast the company’s financial position, and ensure accounting practices align with regulatory, accounting and internal control standards. As Controller, you will support the Accounting Department and field locations by preparing, examining and analyzing accounting records, financial statements and reports for accuracy and completeness. You will also support audit schedules, maintain subsidiary accounts, resolve discrepancies, and assist with fixed assets, sales tax filings and property tax reporting across multiple states. You will strengthen financial visibility and operational decision-making through accounting software, reporting automation, analytics and approved AI-enabled productivity tools. This includes reviewing monthly financials, performing variance and trend analysis, creating operational reports, identifying process improvements, and partnering with IT, divisional leadership and operational teams to improve data quality, dashboards, workflow automation and exception reporting.
