Job Overview:As Fix Group Management's portfolio of independently operated businesses continues to grow, the CFO/President needs a strategic partner. This is a new position created to bring dedicated, senior-level accounting leadership in-house - someone who can operate at both the technical and strategic level. This is not a steady-state, maintain-the-books role - we need someone who is equally comfortable getting into the technical detail and stepping back to build the structure, controls, and reporting infrastructure that will let us scale. You'll own the accuracy and integrity of our books, build and lead a strong accounting team, and provide the financial insight leadership needs to make sound, data-driven decisions.
Roles and Responsibilities:Accounting Operations- Manage daily accounting operations, including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, fixed assets, and cash management.
- Lead month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes to ensure accurate, timely, and compliant financial reporting.
- Oversee account reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and supporting schedules to maintain the integrity of financial records.
- Develop, implement, and monitor accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls to reduce risk and support audit readiness.
- Identify opportunities to streamline accounting workflows, improve reporting accuracy, and strengthen operational efficiency across the finance function.
- Assist with tax preparation and coordinate with outside tax preparers as needed.
Financial Planning & Analysis- Research company data to prepare budgets, forecasts, and ROI analyses across entities.
- Prepare financial packages for internal and external stakeholders, clients, and/or vendors.
- Perform financial risk assessments and conduct internal audits.
- Partner with leadership to develop short- and long-term operational and financial strategy.
Building & Scaling the Function- Build and implement software tools that scale with growth.
- Own and optimize our use of NetSuite, including reporting, workflows, and system configuration.
- Support the financial onboarding and integration of newly acquired or added portfolio businesses.
- Identify and drive process improvement initiatives across accounting operations.
Leadership & Team Development- Serve as a trusted right hand to the CFO/President, providing insight and support for key financial decisions.
- Lead, mentor, and develop a team of accounting and finance professionals, building bench strength for the long term.
- Set clear expectations, KPIs, and accountability standards for the accounting department.
- Ensure compliance with financial and accounting regulations across all entities.
Skills and Qualifications:Education and/or Experience- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or related field, preferred.
- 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including time spent as a Controller, Assistant Controller, or Accounting Manager overseeing multi-entity operations.
- Proven experience working across multiple entities and/or industries.
- 5+ years of hands-on NetSuite experience (reporting, workflows, configuration); NetSuite fluency is a strong differentiator for this role.
- Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing accounting teams (5+ direct/indirect reports).
- Proficient in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace; experience with Paycom or a comparable HRIS/payroll platform preferred.
- Strong understanding of Excel.
- CPA strongly preferred.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Meticulous attention to detail and strong organizational and time-management skills.
