About the role

The Controller is a hands‑on accounting and finance leader responsible for strengthening financial operations across Intersurgical’s United States organization. Reporting to the Vice President of Finance, US, this position will initially focus on stabilizing and improving Accounts Payable operations, resolving intercompany accounting issues, strengthening internal controls, and developing a dependable two‑person AP team. The Controller works alongside the existing Accounting Manager, who retains responsibility for Accounts Receivable. This role requires a leader willing to work directly in transactional details, ERP workflows, and reconciliations while improving processes and building capacity for broader financial responsibilities.

As AP operations stabilize, the Controller will progressively expand into month‑end close and reporting, financial statement analysis, budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and financial planning in partnership with the VP of Finance. The position offers an opportunity for long‑term development toward senior US finance leadership, without a guaranteed promotion.
