About the role

We are seeking an exceptional Controller who has operated successfully inside fast-growing, Venture- or PE-backed healthcare delivery businesses and understands what “good” looks like in a scaling provider platform. This is not a maintenance accounting role. We are looking for a highly capable operator who can build processes, improve controls, elevate reporting quality, and help create an institutional-grade finance function.

The ideal candidate combines strong technical accounting expertise with operational intensity, healthcare fluency, and the ability to thrive in a dynamic, high-accountability environment. Experience with behavioral health, physician practice management, MSOs, revenue cycle complexity, and multi-entity operations is highly valued.

Reporting to the CFO, this role will work closely with executive leadership and play a critical role in preparing the business for continued scale.

• Help establish KPI-driven reporting and operational accountability across the organization
• Oversee relationships with external tax advisors and ensure timely, accurate completion of all federal, state, and local tax filings across multiple entities and jurisdictions
• Coordinate and manage the annual financial audit process with external auditors, including preparation of audit support schedules, reconciliations, and required documentation
• Support ongoing improvement of financial controls and processes to meet institutional-quality reporting standards

• 10-15+ years of progressive accounting and finance experience

• A bachelor’s degree in Accounting required. CPA and/or MACC is strongly preferred.

• Familiarity with multi-state tax compliance and healthcare-related tax considerations

Candidate Profile

• Builder mentality with strong operational instincts
• Comfortable operating in environments where processes are still evolving.
