Controller
Small, Fast‑Paced, Entrepreneurial Environment
About the Role
We are a small, fast‑moving portfolio of businesses and personal ventures that require a Controller who is sharp, proactive, and highly adaptable. This role is NOT for someone who needs rigid structure, predictable days, or constant direction. It IS for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment where priorities shift, problems appear quickly, and you are trusted to figure things out before they become issues.
You will serve as a trusted partner to ownership across business and personal financial management, operational oversight, and project execution. You must be able to zoom out to strategic thinking and zoom in to hands‑on execution often in the same hour.
This is an in‑office role with occasional work‑from‑home flexibility.
