WHO YOU ARE

You are a hands-on accounting leader who has built a strong foundation across the accounting function and is ready to take the next significant step in your career. You have developed broad accounting experience within a small to mid-sized, multi-entity organization, where you have been close to the details and understand what it takes to successfully manage the day-to-day accounting needs of a growing business while leading others to deliver results.

You combine strong technical accounting knowledge with a practical, roll-up-your-sleeves leadership approach. You are equally comfortable setting direction and stepping into the work—moving between financial reporting, revenue recognition, cash forecasting, treasury, accounting operations, systems, and process improvement. You do not simply identify problems or delegate them—you take ownership, mobilize the right people, develop solutions, and drive them through to completion.

You are an effective people leader who can establish clear expectations, hold others accountable, develop talent, and execute through a team while remaining willing to step into the details when needed. You understand that strong leadership in a growing organization requires balancing strategic oversight with tactical execution. You are responsive, resourceful, curious, and motivated by the opportunity to build, improve, and lead from the front.

Whether you are currently a strong Accounting Manager, Senior Accounting Manager, Assistant Controller, or an early-career Controller, you have developed the depth and leadership capability to take on broader ownership. You bring experience working within a multi-entity, global accounting environment and are comfortable navigating the complexities that come with supporting operations across multiple entities, countries, and time zones. You are ready for a role where you can lead a global accounting team, influence how the function operates, and continue developing as a Finance leader.

If you are ready for your next significant career move and excited by the opportunity to lead while staying close to the work, FPG may be the right place for you. This role is designed for a high-potential accounting leader who wants meaningful responsibility, visibility, and the opportunity to strengthen and evolve the accounting function of a growing global organization.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

As Corporate Controller at FPG, you will serve as a key leader within Finance, providing leadership and oversight across the company's global, multi-entity accounting operations while remaining closely connected to the day-to-day work of the team. This is a player-coach role: you will set expectations and direction, develop and hold the team accountable, execute through others, and roll up your sleeves when the business needs hands-on support.

You will be responsible for ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting, strengthening accounting processes and controls, and building scalable infrastructure to support the evolving needs of the business.

You will lead a global accounting organization with team members located across multiple countries and time zones and support the accounting needs of a multi-entity organization. You will oversee financial and management reporting, technical accounting and revenue recognition, cash forecasting, treasury, accounting operations, and financial controls. You will lead the financial close process, partnering closely with the Assistant Controller and accounting team to ensure deliverables are completed accurately and on time. Because the team operates globally, success in this role requires flexibility and the ability to connect with and lead team members across different working hours when needed.

You will also play a critical role in advancing the Finance function through automation, systems optimization, and process improvement. You will identify opportunities to reduce manual work, strengthen controls, improve integrations, and create more efficient and scalable ways of working—then lead the team through execution and adoption.

As a leader within Finance, you will develop the accounting team, establish clear expectations and accountability, and foster a culture of responsiveness, ownership, collaboration, and follow-through. You will know when to delegate and coach, when to challenge the team to solve a problem, and when to step directly into the work to ensure the organization delivers.
