Job Description

Job Description

A rapidly expanding, private equity-backed technology services organization is seeking a highly skilled Assistant Controller to support its next stage of growth. The company delivers complex IT field services and project-based solutions for large enterprise clients and mission-critical environments. With roughly $150M in annual revenue and a dynamic leadership team, the business is scaling quickly and needs a strong accounting leader who can enhance processes, drive discipline in the close, and support operational excellence across a distributed organization.

This is an exclusive, fully remote search for an experienced accounting professional who thrives in high-growth, fast-paced, PE-backed environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and oversee the full month-end close process, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and adherence to US GAAP.
  • Manage WIP and percentage-of-completion accounting for complex, long-term, and project-driven engagements.
  • Support and enhance accounting operations, including revenue recognition, project accounting, reconciliations, and reporting.
  • Partner closely with FP&A, operations, and leadership teams to provide insights and improve financial processes.
  • Maintain and strengthen internal controls, accounting policies, and documentation.
  • Supervise and mentor accounting staff (direct or indirect), helping to develop skills and elevate team performance.
  • Drive improvements in reporting, systems, and automation using tools such as NetSuite, Ramp, PowerBI, and Salesforce.
  • Assist with audit support, financial packages, and preparation for PE reporting requirements.
  • Contribute to scaling initiatives, process optimization, and standardized workflows as the organization grows.

Required Qualifications

  • 6+ years of progressive accounting experience.
  • CPA highly preferred.
  • Background must include both public accounting and private industry; Big 4 is ideal, but national or regional firm experience is acceptable.
  • Demonstrated experience owning and running the full month-end close cycle.
  • Hands-on expertise with WIP and percentage-of-completion accounting within industries such as data centers, construction, infrastructure, or similar project-driven sectors.
  • 1–2+ years of people management experience (direct or indirect).
  • Strong knowledge of US GAAP and the ability to maintain a structured close calendar.
  • NetSuite proficiency is required.
  • Advanced Excel skills and strong competency with reporting / ERP tools; experience with Ramp, PowerBI, and Salesforce is strongly preferred.
  • Experience in a PE-backed or high-growth environment is a plus.
