Why Join Glass House Brands

Join GHBI at an important point in its evolution. The Company's subordinate voting shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol GLAS in June 2026, increasing its exposure to U.S. capital markets and the importance of disciplined public-company reporting, governance, controls, and investor-facing execution.

The financial and operating complexity extends across large-scale cultivation, manufacturing, consumer brands, a multi-entity structure, significant transactions, valuation work, and evolving regulatory requirements. The result is a broad public-company financial reporting and technical accounting role with exposure to complex matters and experience that extends well beyond a single industry.

The role also offers meaningful visibility and ownership, including direct partnership with senior finance leadership, exposure to Audit Committee and Board-level matters, and the opportunity to strengthen the policies, systems, and reporting processes of an NYSE-listed public company. It combines complex technical work with the flexibility of a Southern California remote work model.
