What are the responsibilities and job description for the Assistant Controller position at Synergy Search?
Assistant Controller role just opened with a PE-backed construction company doing serious growth.
A multi-location, private equity-backed construction company is adding an Assistant Controller to help scale the accounting function in a fast-paced, acquisition-heavy environment. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who wants ownership, visibility, and real influence.
You’ll support the Controller and CFO directly while owning day-to-day accounting, financial reporting, and team leadership. The company is actively acquiring, so this role plays a key part in integrations, process building, and creating capacity for senior leadership to focus on strategy.
What makes this attractive:
- Base salary 130K–160K plus bonus
- Strong benefits and in-office flexibility
- Direct exposure to senior leadership and PE partners
- Opportunity to build structure, cadence, and scalable reporting
- Lead and develop a small team while staying close to execution
They’re looking for a “best athlete” type - someone with public accounting roots and experience in larger, PE-backed companies who can handle heavy lift environments and still execute.
If you want a seat at the table during a real growth phase and enjoy building order out of complexity, message me and I’ll share more details.
Salary : $130,000 - $160,000
