CFS

Illinois · Evanston · United States

Assistant Controller
Salary: $130K-$150K + 10-15%
Hybrid 3 days in

Sizzle:
• Executive visibility with CFO, CEO, Board, and private equity sponsors
• Opportunity to help build and shape the accounting function during a major growth phase
• High-autonomy role where you can truly make an impact and leave your mark
• Exposure to M&A activity, process transformation, and strategic finance initiatives
• Hybrid flexibility with minimal in-office requirements
• Strong mentorship from leadership team and exposure across the business

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Our client is a rapidly growing, PE-backed multi-location healthcare/services organization in a highly visible growth phase
• Executive visibility with the CFO, CEO, Board, and private equity sponsors
• Opportunity to help build and scale accounting processes from the ground up in a transformational environment
• High-impact role with direct influence on process improvement, M&A integration, and financial infrastructure
• Fast-track growth opportunity to Assistant Controller and beyond as the organization continues to expand
• Highly collaborative leadership team with strong mentorship from an experienced Controller
• Exposure to operational leaders and cross-functional business initiatives
• Hybrid schedule with limited in-office requirements (1-2 days onsite every other week)
• Strong compensation package, bonus potential, benefits, and unique employee perks

Key Responsibilities for the Accounting Manager:
• Lead complex multi-location accounting activities including revenue recognition, deferred revenue, and AR reconciliations
• Support and enhance the monthly close process, financial reporting, and executive reporting packages
• Drive accounting process improvements, policy development, and systems integration initiatives
• Assist with acquisition accounting and onboarding of newly acquired locations
• Analyze financial results and provide insights to leadership and operational partners
• Partner cross-functionally with finance and operations teams to improve reporting accuracy and efficiency
• Help build scalable accounting infrastructure in a fast-paced, high-growth environment

Qualifications for the Accounting Manager:
• 7-10 years of accounting experience with a mix of public accounting and industry experience preferred
• Strong analytical and investigative mindset with hands-on problem-solving ability
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and helping build processes in an evolving environment
• Experience in high-growth, multi-entity, or private equity-backed organizations preferred
• Strong communication and business partnering skills
