Job Description

North American Controller

This is not your typical Controller role. This is a chance to step into an  exceptional leadership opportunity  with a company that has a  phenomenal culture, strong growth trajectory, and a clear vision for transformation.

Reporting directly to the CFO, the North American Controller will not just manage accounting operations, you’ll  redefine them.  This is your opportunity to lead a talented team, harness the full potential of  SAP S/4HANA , and build a modern, tech-enabled finance function that supports strategic decision-making at every level of the organization.

This hybrid role requires 3 days per week in the office  (with the flexibility to work remotely the other 2 days). Relocation support is available for the right leader.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Phenomenal culture: Be part of an organization where collaboration, innovation, and accountability aren’t just words, they’re how the business runs every day.
• Transformation mandate: Drive the evolution of Finance operations from traditional accounting to a  strategic, technology-forward powerhouse.
• Global reach: Own financial consolidation and reporting for North America, while partnering with international leadership to scale globally.
• Impact from day one: Your leadership will directly shape efficiency, automation, and growth-readiness, including  M&A integration capability.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the full utilization of  SAP S/4HANA , achieving true system optimization and process standardization.
• Implement automation and process improvements to deliver measurable reductions in cost-per-transaction.
• Build scalable finance infrastructure that supports growth and strategic decision-making.
• Oversee month-end close, AR/AP, tax, expense management, and financial consolidations across U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
• Manage and develop a  team of 7 direct reports , empowering them to evolve into a high-performing, future-focused Finance team.
• Partner with external auditors and global finance teams to ensure compliance and strengthen financial controls.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting/Finance; MBA a plus,  CPA strongly preferred.
• Proven leadership experience with a track record of building efficient, motivated teams for a manufacturing organization.
• Prior SAP expertise required , with the ability to leverage the system for efficiency and insight.
• Strong background in automation platforms, finance technology, and process transformation.
• Confident communicator with the presence to influence at all levels.
• Experience in  global manufacturing is highly preferred.

The Right Candidate

You’re a  change agent  who thrives in a role where you can modernize, transform, and elevate an accounting operation into a best-in-class Finance function. You’re not satisfied with “good enough”—you want to be part of a company that’s building something exceptional, with the culture and resources to back it up.

Compensation & Benefits

• Highly competitive salary and performance-based bonus.
• Relocation support available.
• Comprehensive benefits package.
• Hybrid schedule (3 in-office / 2 remote).

This is more than a Controller role. This is an opportunity to  transform an entire Finance function, lead an outstanding team, and grow with a company that values people, innovation, and excellence.

If you’re ready to bring confidence, technology, and transformational leadership to an exceptional culture - apply today.
