Position Summary:
We’re looking for a Controller who can do more than close the books—you’ll build, scale, and optimize a finance function that supports a high-growth, operationally complex business. This role sits at the intersection of accounting rigor and strategic partnership, bringing clarity to ambiguity and structure to scale.
You will oversee a team of 10 and support a $200M+ multi-entity business operating across 36 states.
If you enjoy cleaning things up and building what comes next, you’ll thrive here.
Salary Range: $190,000 - $220,000/year, based on experience + bonus potential
Location - Greenwood Village, CO. 4 days in the office and 1 day remote.
How You Will Make an Impact:
- Lead all accounting operations including GL, AP/AR, payroll, and revenue recognition
- Oversee month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close with a focus on speed, accuracy, and scalability
- Ensure GAAP compliance and maintain strong internal controls
- Partner cross-functionally (Ops, FP&A, Product & Technology) to translate financial data into actionable insights
- Manage audits, tax filings, and external relationships (auditors, advisors, etc.)
- Build and mentor a high-performing accounting team as the company grows
- Continuously improve systems, processes, and reporting infrastructure (ERP optimization, automation, etc.)
- Support strategic initiatives including pricing models, unit economics, and potential M&A activity
What You Will Bring to EverDriven:
- 8–12+ years of progressive accounting experience (mix of public accounting + industry strongly preferred)
- CPA required (non-negotiable—sorry, we checked)
- Experience in high-growth, multi-entity, or operationally complex environments
- Strong knowledge of GAAP, revenue recognition, and internal controls
- Proven track record of building or scaling accounting functions
- Systems-savvy (NetSuite or similar ERP experience preferred)
- Ability to operate both strategically and hands-on—this is not a “sit back and review” role
