Controller

Arlington, VA 22242

Posted: 01/27/2026 Job Titles: ACCT - Controller Job Number: 5665 Pay Rate: 250,000

Job Description


Our client is a high-growth, tech-driven healthcare company that’s scaling fast and looking for a Controller who can take full ownership of the accounting function and help put a strong financial backbone behind the business.

 

You’ll report directly to the CFO and operate as their right hand on all things accounting, controls, and financial infrastructure. The role is remote, but candidates must be based on the East Coast, with a strong preference for New York–based professionals.

 

This is for someone who’s confident in their technical ability, comfortable leading from the front, and excited to step into a high-visibility role at a company that’s growing aggressively year over year.

 

What you’ll own:

Full oversight of the accounting function including month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close

Financial reporting, general ledger, and balance sheet integrity

Building and strengthening internal controls as the company scales

Partnering closely with the CFO on strategy, structure, and execution

Leading, mentoring, and leveling up the accounting team

Managing audits, tax processes, and compliance requirements

Driving systems, automation, and process improvements

Exposure on the finance side, assisting the CFO during budget and forecast season, including planning, modeling support, and performance analysis

Bringing discipline and clarity to a fast-moving environment

 

What they’re looking for:

10+ years of progressive accounting experience

CPA is a strong plus

Healthcare experience is a plus, especially in tech-enabled or growth environments

Experience in fast-growth companies where things are still being built

Someone who can operate both strategically and tactically

A steady hand who brings structure without slowing momentum

Strong presence and ability to communicate with executive leadership

 

Why this role stands out:

Direct line to the CFO and real influence on how the finance organization is built

High-impact position in a company experiencing exponential growth

Remote flexibility while staying aligned with an East Coast leadership team

Meaningful exposure to both accounting and finance, especially around budgeting and planning

The chance to put your stamp on a business that’s scaling quickly

This is ideal for a Controller who’s confident, composed, and ready to step into a role where their decisions actually move the needle. Someone who knows the numbers cold, moves with intention, and enjoys building something that lasts.
