Quick Overview
Job Description
We are looking for a strategic and detail-oriented Controller to lead accounting, compliance, and financial governance activities for the Americas region in Dallas, Texas. This position serves as a key partner to senior finance leadership, strengthening reporting quality, regulatory alignment, and operational consistency across multiple business lines and countries. The ideal candidate brings deep controllership expertise, strong leadership capability, and a track record of improving processes in complex, fast-paced environments.
Responsibilities:
• Lead regional close activities and ensure reporting deadlines are met with accuracy, consistency, and strong financial controls.
• Partner with external auditors by coordinating requests, preparing supporting documentation, and facilitating an efficient audit process.
• Strengthen balance sheet reconciliation practices by promoting standard methods, monitoring aged items, and driving timely resolution of exceptions.
• Evaluate and resolve complex accounting matters in collaboration with technical accounting and other finance partners.
• Oversee intercompany accounting processes to support proper execution, governance, and alignment across entities.
• Coordinate statutory reporting and local filing obligations with in-country teams and external specialists to maintain compliance in each jurisdiction.
• Work closely with tax partners to support indirect tax reporting and related compliance requirements.
• Provide guidance on entity governance, structural considerations, and internal control effectiveness across relevant geographies.
• Lead, coach, and organize a distributed team while setting priorities, reinforcing accountability, and fostering a collaborative culture.
• Support finance transformation efforts, including process redesign, change management, operating model improvements, and technology-enabled innovation where applicable.
Requirements
• Extensive experience in controllership, accounting, or finance leadership within a complex regional or multinational environment.
• Strong knowledge of close management, statutory reporting, audit coordination, and internal control frameworks.
• Background in public accounting, ideally including Big 4 audit experience at a manager level.
• Demonstrated ability to lead teams across countries, functions, or multiple lines of business.
• Proven success managing complex accounting issues and partnering effectively with technical finance stakeholders.
• Experience driving process improvement, finance transformation, or large-scale operational change initiatives.
• Strong project management, organizational, and communication skills with the ability to balance strategic and operational priorities.
