Corporate Controller

Nashville, TN area | Hybrid

The Opportunity

A growing private-equity-backed healthcare services company is hiring a hands-on Controller. The company operates across several states and entities. The Controller reports to the CFO and will run day-to-day accounting: the close, financial reporting, revenue recognition, internal controls, audits and cash reporting. The company is also preparing for a major ERP implementation, and this person will help lead it.

This role fits a leader who can think strategically and still work in the details. You'll build a small team and put processes in place that scale as the business grows.

What You'll Do

  • Lead the month-end, quarter-end and year-end close across multiple entities, delivering accurate GAAP financial statements.
  • Shorten the close timeline and keep it efficient.
  • Review journal entries, reconciliations and supporting schedules, and keep the general ledger audit-ready.
  • Manage and grow a small accounting team covering AP, AR, payroll and general accounting.
  • Design approval workflows, purchasing controls and payment processes.
  • Find ways to automate manual work and speed up reporting.
  • Oversee fixed assets and lease accounting under ASC 842.
  • Produce consolidated reporting across entities and states.
  • Prepare cash forecasts, and support the CFO on liquidity and planning.
  • Lead the annual budget alongside operations leaders.
  • Build monthly reporting packages for leadership and the company's private equity owners.
  • Run the annual audit and support lender, tax and regulatory requests.
  • Write, document and enforce accounting policies and controls.
  • Support acquisitions, from due diligence through purchase accounting and integration.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA strongly preferred
  • Several years of recent Controller experience
  • Background in public accounting, ideally at a national or Big Four firm
  • Experience with multi-entity, multi-state consolidations
  • Experience working for a private-equity-backed company
  • Hands-on experience with a software implementation
  • A track record of improving the close and automating accounting processes
  • Strong command of US GAAP (ASC 606, ASC 842, business combinations)
  • Advanced Excel skills and experience managing an external audit

Compensation

Competitive base salary plus an annual bonus.
