Interim Accounting Manager / Controller Consultant

Job Description - Interim Accounting Manager / Controller Consultant

Our client is seeking an experienced accounting consultant to step into an Interim Accounting Manager / small-company Controller-level role. The consultant will assess, document, and improve the company’s general ledger accounting and financial reporting processes, with particular emphasis on creating a more efficient and disciplined month-end close.



This is a hands-on consulting assignment suited for a self-starter who can quickly understand the current environment, identify process gaps, and implement practical improvements while supporting day-to-day accounting needs.

Key Duties & Responsibilities


  • Review the end-to-end general ledger accounting and financial reporting processes.

  • Document existing accounting procedures, controls, workflows, and month-end close activities.

  • Recommend and implement process improvements where needed.

  • Evaluate the current approximately one-month close cycle and identify opportunities to materially shorten it.

  • Review an accounting structure containing 700+ accounts and identify opportunities to simplify or rationalize the chart of accounts.

  • Improve the quality, consistency, and usefulness of management and financial reporting.

  • Establish stronger month-end close procedures, including ownership, deadlines, reconciliations, review steps, and close checklists.

  • Perform and/or oversee account reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, and other GL activities as needed.

  • Help create sustainable processes and documentation that can be transitioned to the permanent accounting team.

  • Support financial reporting appropriate for a business with approximately $20 million in annual revenue and reporting requirements associated with small-cap institutional investors.


Required Experience & Systems Skills

  • Accounting Manager, Assistant Controller, Controller, or equivalent senior accounting experience in a small-to-midsized company.

  • Strong hands-on general ledger and month-end close experience.

  • Demonstrated ability to assess and improve accounting processes rather than simply maintain an existing process.

  • QuickBooks Online experience required.

  • Strong financial reporting and account reconciliation skills.

  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of an accounting environment with limited direction.

  • Comfortable working within a complex chart of accounts.

  • Experience documenting accounting procedures and implementing repeatable close processes.

  • Strong Excel skills preferred.


Work Arrangement

Hybrid, with regular onsite work required at the company’s Cool Springs offices.



Location

Cool Springs / Franklin, Tennessee



Reporting Arrangement

The consultant will work closely with the CFO while independently driving improvements to GL accounting, close, and reporting processes.
