Full Job Description

About Bruiser Companies

Bruiser Companies is a family of operating businesses generating revenue across trucking, automotive, technology services, and real estate. We move fast, we build aggressively, and we hold high standards. We are currently preparing for institutional capital and targeting significant revenue growth in the near term. This is not a stable, cruise-control environment. It's a build-phase company with real complexity and real upside.

Bruiser has operations in multiple states, employs more than 150 people, and is scaling toward $1 billion in top-line revenue over the next three years, driven by aggressive growth in its real estate and auto repair business lines.

The Role

Bruiser Companies is hiring a Controller to personally own the financial operations of a fast-growing, multi-entity business. This is a hands-on operator seat, not a management title. You will take full ownership of the daily financial reality across all entities, reduce the CEO's finance workload materially within six months, and build the systems and reporting infrastructure a $1 billion business needs before it gets there.

The right person treats financial operations the way an engineer treats production systems: accurate, automated where possible, and built to scale. You thrive in ambiguity, you build structure rather than wait for someone to hand it to you, and you'd rather fix the root cause than patch the symptom.

This is a builder's seat at a company in real motion. If you want to construct the financial backbone of a business heading toward institutional capital and nine-figure revenue, this is that opportunity.

What You'll Do

Perform daily bank and account reconciliations across all entities -- no exceptions, no delays
Own monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes across multiple entities with mixed accounting methods
Build and maintain a rolling 13-week cash forecast across all entities
Prepare consolidated and entity-level financial statements, board packages, and investor-grade reporting
Lead annual audits and serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors
Manage lender reporting and monitor debt covenants proactively
Handle all intercompany transactions, eliminations, and transfer pricing
Personally build automations, scripts, or data pipelines that eliminate manual work
Solve finance fire-drills independently -- you fix it, document the root cause, and prevent recurrence

Requirements

5-10 years of progressive finance and accounting experience
Direct experience managing finances across multiple legal entities (family of companies, holding company, or family office preferred)
Advanced QuickBooks Online -- multi-entity, intercompany, custom reporting
ADP payroll GL integration and reconciliation experience
Proficiency with Ramp, Stripe, banking portals, and lender portals
Advanced Excel: pivot tables, INDEX/MATCH, SUMIFS, array formulas, three-statement modeling from scratch
Active, demonstrated use of AI and LLM tools in real finance workflows -- this is a hard requirement, not a preference
Ability to personally build automations: scripts (Python or JavaScript), QBO API integrations, Zapier/Make workflows, or equivalent
Comfortable operating and making sound decisions with 80-90% confidence when conditions require speed
CPA preferred but not required if technical capability and judgment are demonstrably strong

Do Not Apply If:

You view AI and automation as a threat rather than a tool
Your operating model depends on delegating work to external CPAs or consultants you should be doing internally
You need detailed processes and rigid structure handed to you to function
You see "Controller" primarily as a people-management title
You have never personally performed intercompany reconciliations or eliminations across related entities

What Success Looks Like

At 6 months: The CEO is largely out of finance. Zero missed deadlines. Daily reconciliations running clean across all entities. At least two meaningful system improvements deployed.

At 12 months: Audit-ready at any point in time. Investor-grade reporting live. Scalable systems built for a $50M+ business.

Compensation & Benefits

$100,000-$150,000 base salary (commensurate with experience)
Performance-based bonus
Equity and upside participation across multiple operating entities

Pay: $100,000.00 - $200,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k)
401(k) matching
Dental insurance
Health insurance
Life insurance
Paid time off
Vision insurance
