Location: Cool Springs, TN — 1 to 2 days onsite

Duration: 12 months at least

Strong interpersonal skills are the most important qualification.

This role requires someone willing to perform detailed accounting work—not simply oversee it.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage month-end close, financial reporting, and cash flow forecasting.

  • Supervise a bookkeeper, reviewing reconciliations and other accounting work for accuracy and completeness.

  • Coordinate reporting across domestic and international operations, including foreign currency translation accounting.

  • Work in Sage MAS 500 and Excel to prepare largely manual reports, resolve discrepancies, and improve accounting processes and controls.


Qualifications

  • Controller-level experience with strong general ledger, reconciliation, and financial reporting skills.

  • Some foreign currency translation accounting experience is required.

  • Strong intermediate Excel skills, including VLOOKUP and XLOOKUP.

  • Sage MAS 500 experience is helpful.
