We are dedicated to providing tailored strategies that align with our clients' values and missions, focusing on service, integrity, and excellence. Our team is passionate about driving impactful change by equipping our partners with the tools and technologies they need to thrive in a digital age.

Position

We're looking for a hands-on Controller to own Servant's day-to-day accounting and financial operations. This person will bring our accounting function in-house, establish reliable processes, and give leadership clear, timely visibility into the financial health of the business.

Working directly with the COO and partnering across Growth, Delivery, Resource Management, and People Ops, the Controller will oversee the full accounting cycle, tax compliance, payroll accounting, and financial reporting. They'll also connect contracts, project delivery, and billing while improving visibility into cash flow and project profitability.

  • Coordinate income tax preparation, annual financial reviews, and other external accounting requirements with outside advisors.
  • Maintain accurate financial records, documentation, policies, and internal controls.

Financial Reporting & Business Partnership

  • Deliver monthly financial reporting with clear explanations of performance, trends, and variances.
  • Give the COO and leadership team visibility into revenue, expenses, margins, cash flow, and working capital.
  • Monitor cash flow and proactively flag risks, timing gaps, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Partner with the COO on budgets, forecasts, and financial projections; analyze actual results against plan and recommend corrective actions.
  • Serve as the primary owner of accounting and financial reporting in leadership discussions, providing clear insights and recommendations.

Project Accounting & Services Operations

  • Partner with Growth, Delivery, and Resource Management to connect signed contracts, project setup, delivery, and client billing.
  • Improve visibility into project costs, engagement margins, utilization, and services profitability.
  • Maintain consistency across accounting, project management, CRM, and billing systems.
  • Review project budgets, cost allocations, and revenue recognition in accordance with applicable standards and company policies.
  • Coordinate the accounting treatment and documentation of qualifying software development costs, including capitalization, with the COO and external advisors.

  • Improve data consistency across connected systems and streamline recurring accounting processes through automation, integrations, and responsible use of AI-enabled tools.
  • Reduce manual work and recurring errors while improving close timelines, reporting, documentation, and financial controls.

Requirements

  • Experience with accounts payable, accounts receivable, client billing, and contract invoicing.
  • Hands-on experience with QuickBooks and Bill.com.
  • Experience with tax compliance oversight, payroll accounting, and coordination with payroll providers or external tax advisors.
  • Ability to improve processes and internal controls, interpret financial data, and communicate actionable insights to business leaders.

Preferred

  • 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.
