Job description

Build It. Lead It. Own It.

Global Controller | Minneapolis–St. Paul

Hiring a Global Controller to build and lead a standalone controllership organization.

This is an established business with hundreds of millions in annual revenue and approximately 1,000 employees—and the finance infrastructure, systems and processes are being built for its next chapter as an independent company.

Reporting to the Head of Finance/CFO, the Global Controller will:

• Build and lead an approximately 17-person global organization, including Tax and Treasury
• Own global close, consolidation, financial reporting, statutory reporting and financial operations
• Establish accounting policies and controls across US GAAP, IFRS and local statutory requirements
• Lead the SAP S/4HANA implementation
• Manage the transition from the former parent company’s shared services
• Lead the company through its first standalone audit
• Partner with the Board, Audit Committee, auditors and investor stakeholders

Manufacturing experience is preferred, including inventory, cost accounting and operational controls.

This is not a maintenance role. It is an opportunity to build, grow and own—with direct access to leadership and a broad-based employee ownership/profit-sharing program.

Compensation:

$160,000–$190,000 base + 20% annual bonus, comprehensive benefits and employee ownership/profit sharing.
