  • Develop and maintain robust internal controls to safeguard company assets and ensure the integrity of financial data.
  • Planning and Leadership

  • Support cash flow, budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis.
  • Partner with leadership to provide financial insights and support strategic decision-making.
  • Oversee the continuous improvement of accounting systems and processes to drive efficiency and scalability.

  • 10+ years of increasing responsibility in finance and accounting, specifically within the clinical research industry (CRO, Biotech, Pharma, Clinical Imaging, etc.).
  • Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation is required.
  • Working knowledge of ASC 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) and its complex application within clinical trial contracts is mandatory.
  • Proven experience managing relationships and engagements with external audit firms and accounting consultancies on technical and operational matters.
  • Demonstrated experience managing domestic and international tax compliance and reporting for a global organization.

  • Deep, technical knowledge of US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and a strong background preparing for and managing external audits.
  • Education & Skills
