This Isn't a Typical Controller RoleMost Controller jobs ask you to maintain a system someone else built. This one asks you to own it - and make it better.
We're looking for a Controller who is technically sharp, operationally curious, and ready to be a real partner to the business - not just the person who closes the books.
What You'll Own- The full accounting function - close, GL, A/R, A/P, billing, inventory, revenue recognition - across multiple entities including our holding company, operating subsidiary, and two inactive entities
- NetSuite - you'll be the ERP SME, owning the system and its integrations with Caxton, Metabase, Shopify, and other platforms
- The Foundation - as CGH provides shared services support for the 501(c)(3) Foundation launch, you'll help build the nonprofit accounting function from the ground up, including fund accounting, Form 990 compliance, and ASC 958
- Reporting and analysis - executive scorecards, budget-to-actual, cash flow, inventory, and sales reporting
- Lead a small team - 2 direct reports and part-time offshore support that you'll coach, develop, and lead by example
The Details- Louisville, CO - hybrid, 1-2 days in office per week
- Base salary $130,000-$150,000, depending on experience
- Target bonus of 10%,
- Competitive benefits including health insurance, 401(k), and PTO
- CPA or MBA a plus - but experience and judgment matter more to us
Requirements
What We're Looking ForThe experience:- 7+ years in accounting, with 2-3+ years as a Controller or Senior Accounting Manager
- Multi-entity or holding company experience strongly preferred
- Hands-on NetSuite experience (or similar ERP with SME-level depth)
- Inventory accounting and revenue recognition in a product-based business
- Nonprofit/501(c)(3) accounting experience is a real differentiator here
- Background in a founder-led, family-owned, or early-stage company is a plus - you know how to navigate a growing business
- Experience leading a small team
- Comfortable with presenting to C-level leadership
The person:- A non-traditional accountant - technically rigorous, but equally comfortable in an operations conversation or a meeting with a department lead
- Someone who builds reports, doesn't just run them - advanced Excel, complex data, self-sufficient
- An active listener who asks good questions, reads between the lines, and fills gaps before being asked
- A leader who guides people to solve problems, rather than solving everything for them
- Low-ego, high-presence, and genuinely curious about how the whole business works
