Teamshares median: 28 days open

The posting

My Financial Partner delivers high quality, fast-paced fractional Controller, AP, and GL services to 70+ network companies across the Teamshares portfolio. We're a wholly owned subsidiary of Teamshares, Inc. — a publicly traded company built to keep great small businesses thriving, one acquisition at a time.

The Role

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the monthly, quarterly and annual close calendar across all Network Companies, delivering a consistent close within 8-10 business days.
  • Review and approve journal entries, account reconciliations and flux analysis before submission to consolidation if needed, alongside the Industry Controller review.
  • Stay hands-on: prepare or step in on complex entries, reconciliations and technical accounting memos when the team needs it.
  • Oversee core GL activity, including:
  • Balance sheet reconciliations (cash, credit card, A/R, A/P, intercompany, clearing accounts)
  • Fixed assets, depreciation and disposals
  • Prepaid expenses and amortization
  • Payroll, bonus, revenue and expense accruals
  • Deferred revenue entries and reversals
  • Income tax entries provided by Teamshares Tax
  • Inventory adjustments tied to annual physical counts
  • Year-end adjustments and audit workpapers
  • Ensure trial balances, variance analysis and close checklists are loaded to OneStream accurately and on time.
  • Maintain the chart of accounts standard and approve new account requests.
  • Support and adhere to the Teamshares R2R controls to a public company (SOX 404) standard.
  • Own GL control matrix, process narratives and flowcharts.
  • Enforce segregation of duties, journal entry approval thresholds and reconciliation sign-off standards.
  • Partner with Internal Audit and external auditors on walkthroughs, testing, audit requests and deficiency remediation.
  • Lead, coach and develop a growing team of both Senior and General Ledger.
  • Direct the offshore GL team and partner in Colombia: define work allocation, standard work instructions, review points and quality metrics.
  • Build the team structure, job levels, onshore/offshore mix and hiring plan to reach 10-15 staff by 2027 and scale with acquisitions.
  • Set goals, run performance reviews and create development paths that retain strong performers.
  • Build a culture of accountability, documentation and continuous improvement across time zones.
  • Lead the general ledger workstream for onboarding new Network Companies into MFP Shared Services.
  • Work with MFP’s Sr. Transition Controller to take responsibility for GL staffing plans based on MFP’s integration playbook.
  • Collaborate to refine the integration playbook after each onboarding so the next one is faster.
  • Act as the R2R liaison for OneStream (close checklists, account reconciliation module, reporting) and for GL processes across the ERPs used by Network Companies.
  • Represent R2R in future ERP and systems initiatives, including requirements, design, testing (UAT) and post-go-live stabilization.
  • Identify and deliver automation, such as reconciliation tools, recurring entries and standardized templates.
  • Working with the Shared Services Lead, assist in change management for process and system changes: stakeholder communication, training, documentation and adoption tracking.
  • Member of MFP’s Core Team to contribute to the input to the strategic design, operational execution and teaming of the shared services leadership team.
  • Partner with MFP Industry Controllers, FP&A, Tax and Treasury to meet service expectations.
  • Develop and maintain Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and report monthly on close KPIs.
  • Respond to requests from the CFO, Chief Accounting Officer and Shared Services leadership, and raise risks to deadlines early.

Required Qualifications

  • Active, unrestricted CPA license (in good standing).
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance.
  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 5+ years leading teams.
  • 4+ years of direct experience leading a GL or R2R function inside a shared services center (SSC or GBS) that supports multiple entities or business units.
  • Hands-on OneStream experience (preferred), or Oracle Hyperion/HFM or another comparable CPM tool, in a close, consolidation or reporting role (not only as a report consumer).
  • Public company experience with SOX 404: designing, documenting, operating and remediating R2R controls, and working directly with external auditors.
  • Experience managing offshore or outsourced accounting teams, including work transition, quality review and cross-time-zone coordination.
  • Experience with at least two acquisition integrations, covering chart of accounts mapping, opening balances, data conversion and first close.
  • Experience building a high performing team and in-depth knowledge of staffing models and scaling teams in a shared services environment to include hiring, restructuring roles and developing GL team leaders.
  • Proven change leadership on a major process or system change (for example an ERP implementation, close transformation or shared services transition).
  • Strong U.S. GAAP knowledge across accruals, fixed assets, leases (ASC 842), revenue (ASC 606) and business combinations (ASC 805).
  • Advanced Excel skills and comfort working in large, multi-entity data sets.
  • Operational and hands-on experience working for start-ups and small businesses in a back-office support environment.
  • NetSuite and QuickBooks Online experience, ideally across many entities.
  • Experience leading nearshore teams in Latin America.
  • Experience in a private equity-backed, roll-up or serial-acquirer environment with many small entities.
  • Experience supporting a company through IPO readiness or the first years of SOX compliance.
  • Exposure to close and reconciliation tools such as BlackLine, FloQast or OneStream Account Reconciliations.
  • Lean, Six Sigma or similar process improvement training.

Systems & Tools

Competencies

  • Hands-on leadership: leads from the front and still does the work when the close requires it.
  • Operational execution ‘know-how’: clearly understands how to turn strategy into operational tasks and can build standard operating procedures while applying a ‘just do it’ attitude.
  • Control mindset: documents, evidence and reviews by default.
  • Scalability thinking: designs processes that absorb the next acquisition without rework.
  • Clear communication: explains accounting issues to non-accountants, presidents and executives.
  • Cross-cultural team leadership: builds trust and accountability with offshore colleagues.
  • Composure under deadlines: manages multiple close calendars and integrations at the same time.

Our Values

What Success Looks Like

Work Hours/ Benefits

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
