Job Summary

We are hiring a Business Controller focused on our Road Guard entity in the Western US. This is not just a steward of financial accuracy, but a strategic thinker capable of scaling systems, developing people, and driving insight through operational data. This is a high-impact leadership role at the heart of our finance operations-responsible for guiding the accounting team, owning technical accounting, and partnering cross-functionally with leaders across the business.

This hire is crucial to supporting GSI's ongoing growth, including post-acquisition integrations, internal control maturation, and continuous margin-focused decision making.

If you've outgrown traditional accounting roles and are ready to drive strategic change from within, this is your next challenge.

Key Responsibilities

  • Take a hands-on role in the project controls, project review and related processes in conjunction with the operations leaders.


  • Key advisor to operations leadership related to leading and trending indicators to improve company performance


  • Lead and continuously improve all core accounting functions: month-end close, GL management, audits, reconciliations, and internal controls


  • Conduct and guide technical accounting research, documentation, and policy update.


  • Oversee accounting execution for complex transaction cycles and key accounts


  • Serve as a lead partner in the integration of acquired entities into GSI's financial systems


  • Collaborate with FP&A and operational leaders on cashflow, budgeting, forecasting margin tracking, and financial accuracy by project


  • Support tax planning and compliance in coordination with internal and external stakeholders


  • Drive automation and system improvements to streamline the month-end close process


  • Prepare key reporting for executive decision making and board visibility


Qualifications

  • Ability to travel occasionally along the Western US and to our HQ in Westminster, CO
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Deep proficiency in Excel and comfort with financial systems

Preferred Qualifications
  • CPA certification
  • Experience running a complete month-end close cycle
  • Prior use of Vista by Viewpoint
  • Background in public accounting or fast-scaling private companies
  • Hands-on experience with M&A integration


This role will be in-office on a hybrid schedule. Employees will be expected to work in the Westminster office with travel in the Western US as needed.

The expected base pay range for this position is $90,000-130,000. Salary ranges are dependent on a variety of factors, including qualifications, experience and geographic location. Range is not inclusive of potential bonus or benefits.
