The posting

Zelh is a fast-growing, passionate outsourcing company. Our mission is to be the most reliable partner by delivering consistently high-quality services.

We build long-term relationships with our customers, employees, and vendors through personal attention, clear communication, and respect. That’s the foundation of everything we do.

Now we are looking for Financial Controller for one of our logistics client.

The Financial Controller is the senior accounting leader for the operating business and its acquired entities. Reporting to corporate finance and partnering with operating leadership, this role manages the full accounting lifecycle, working capital, and acquisition integration.

This hands-on position ensures accurate books, timely closes, system reconciliations, disciplined cash operations, credit risk monitoring, and robust internal controls while delivering operating data to support parent-level reporting and M&A execution.

Key Responsibilities

Accounting & Close Management

  • Own month-end close across multi-entity operations (preliminary financials by Business Day 7; final close by BD 10).
  • Prepare entity-level P&L, balance sheet, cash flow statements, reconciliations, and audit-ready schedules under US GAAP.
  • Coordinate external audit, tax, lender, and regulatory reporting requirements.

Systems & Reconciliations

  • Reconcile operational platforms (TMS/operational software), factoring platforms, bank accounts, payroll, and the general ledger (GL).
  • Resolve data breaks promptly, address root causes, and optimize system integrations to reduce manual work.

Payables & Cash Management

  • Manage end-to-end accounts payable, aging schedules, and payment runs within approved terms.
  • Own the rolling 13-week operating cash flow forecast and update it weekly with actual-to-forecast variance analysis.
  • Proactively escalate liquidity risks, funding needs, or overdue obligations before deadlines pass.

Receivables, Factoring & Credit Control

  • Oversee billing, cash application, collections, AR aging, and factoring relationship reconciliations.
  • Maintain customer credit registers, evaluate customer creditworthiness, and monitor exposure/utilization weekly.
  • Enforce credit limits to prevent unauthorized exposure and issue weekly credit-risk reports to leadership.

Acquisition Integration & Corporate Support

  • Lead accounting integration for new acquisitions (opening balances, system/bank migrations, payroll, and cut-off controls).
  • Execute post-close working-capital reconciliations and deliver weekly integration status updates.
  • Supply validated financial data, margin analysis, and variance commentary to corporate finance.

Team Leadership

  • Lead and mentor AP, AR, and staff accounting teams.
  • Establish SOPs, maintain service levels, and ensure cross-training for critical workflows.

Authority & Boundaries

  • Controller Authority: Enforces accounting policies, close timelines, payment controls, and credit holds across operating entities.
  • Corporate Ownership: Parent/holding company finance retains final authority over annual budgets, strategic pricing, capital allocation, M&A execution, and material credit limit exceptions.

Qualifications

Required

  • Experience: 7+ years in progressive accounting, with 3+ years as Controller or Assistant Controller.
  • Core Skills: Hands-on multi-entity month-end close, high-volume AP/AR management, 13-week cash forecasting, and customer credit administration.
  • Technical: Strong US GAAP knowledge, internal control design, and advanced Excel.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field. Working Conditions Schedule: Mon–Fri, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time (Cincinnati) Competitive Salary in USD Work type: Remote 10+ business days of paid time off, 15 after 2 years Equipment provided

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.
