The posting

We are seeking a strategic and hands-on Multi-Store Dealership Controller to oversee financial operations across multiple rooftops while building, developing, and mentoring a high-performing accounting and office administration team. The ideal candidate not only thrives on accuracy and operational excellence but is also passionate about coaching staff, improving processes, and creating scalable systems that support growth.

This role is perfect for an experienced automotive Controller who wants to make a lasting impact—both in the numbers and in the people behind them.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Leadership

  • Direct and oversee accounting functions for multiple dealership locations, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with GAAP, manufacturer requirements, and internal policies.
  • Consolidate financial statements and deliver clear, actionable reporting to senior leadership.
  • Partner with Fixed Ops and Variable Ops leaders to monitor KPIs, margins, and expense controls.
  • Drive improvements in cash flow, internal controls, and operational efficiency.

Staff Development & Training

  • Lead, mentor, and grow a team of accounting staff and office administrators across stores.
  • Develop training programs that enhance technical accounting skills, dealership system proficiency (DMS, CRM, OEM portals), and professional growth.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
  • Identify and groom high-potential talent for future leadership roles

Systems & Process Excellence

  • Standardize policies and procedures across stores for efficiency and consistency.
  • Implement new technologies and reporting tools to streamline accounting workflows.
  • Serve as a change leader—ensuring staff are trained, supported, and confident in adopting new processes.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field preferred but not required
  • 5+ years of experience as a Dealership Controller (multi-store experience strongly preferred).
  • Strong knowledge of dealership accounting, manufacturer financial statements, and compliance.
  • Demonstrated success in developing staff, running training programs, and building team capabilities.
  • Proficiency with dealership management systems (e.g., CDK, Reynolds & Reynolds, Dealertrack) and Excel/BI reporting tools.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation with bonus opportunities.
  • Health, dental, vision, and retirement benefits.
  • Career growth opportunities within a growing dealer group.
  • A leadership culture that values people development just as much as financial performance.

Why Join Us?

This isn’t just about balancing the books. It’s about building a team that thrives under your leadership, where staff feel supported, trained, and empowered to succeed. If you are a proven Controller who wants to take ownership of financial excellence and leave a legacy by shaping strong teams, we’d love to meet you.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
