Controller | Financial Reporting & Analytics Leader

Location: Baltimore County, MD (Onsite)

Compensation: $130,000 - $145,000 + Bonus Potential

Are you a Controller who builds the reports, not just reviews them?

A growing and mission-driven organization is seeking a hands-on Controller to lead accounting, financial reporting, KPI development, and business analytics.

This opportunity is ideal for a finance leader who enjoys getting deep into the numbers, creating meaningful management reporting, developing key performance metrics, and providing leadership with actionable insights that drive decision-making.

While the role oversees traditional accounting functions, the organization's leadership team places a significant emphasis on reporting, analytics, and KPI visibility. We're looking for someone who can transform data into information and information into strategy.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all accounting and financial reporting activities, including general ledger, month-end close, AP, AR, payroll, and internal controls.
• Build and maintain robust management reporting packages for executive leadership.
• Develop, enhance, and monitor KPI dashboards and business performance metrics.
• Create financial and operational reports that support strategic decision-making.
• Produce monthly financial statements by department, division, and profit center.
• Partner with leadership to identify trends, opportunities, and potential risks within the business.
• Own budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis processes.
• Build advanced financial models and reporting tools using Excel and other technologies.
• Identify opportunities for process improvement, automation, and reporting efficiencies.
• Ensure the accuracy, integrity, and consistency of financial and operational data.

What We're Looking For

• 10+ years of progressive accounting and finance experience, including Controller or senior finance leadership experience.
• Demonstrated success creating reporting packages, KPI dashboards, and management analytics.
• Experience personally developing reports and financial models rather than solely reviewing work prepared by others.
• Strong understanding of financial statement preparation, profit center reporting, budgeting, and forecasting.
• Advanced Excel capabilities, including modeling, pivot tables, complex formulas, data analysis, and reporting automation.
• Ability to translate large amounts of financial and operational data into meaningful business insights.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to present findings to executive leadership.

Preferred Qualifications

• CPA designation.
• Experience with reporting and business intelligence tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or similar platforms.
• ERP implementation or system optimization experience.
• Background in multi-department, multi-location, or growth-oriented organizations.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is an opportunity to join an organization where leadership genuinely relies on financial data and KPI reporting to drive business decisions. The successful candidate will have a seat at the table, significant visibility with executives, and the ability to shape how financial and operational performance is measured moving forward.

If you're a Controller who enjoys building reporting infrastructure, developing meaningful metrics, and serving as a strategic business partner, we'd love to connect!
