Job description

Controller

As the #1 app focused on everyday workers, JobGet is redefining the future of hiring. Founded in 2019, JobGet began as the only mobile-first hiring platform for everyday workers. Since then, we have grown by joining forces with Snagajob, the largest hourly job board in the United States, followed by Seasoned, the leading platform for restaurant hiring. Each acquisition has brought JobGet closer to the frontline, making the platform faster, smarter, and more effective. We serve a diverse range of industries, from food service and customer support to healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing. With access to over 200 million job seekers, our platform leverages cutting-edge AI to match qualified, role‑ready candidates, automating key parts of the hiring process for faster decisions and better outcomes. Our mission is to help everyday workers thrive by providing accessible, frictionless hiring solutions that deliver real results.

We are seeking an experienced and strategic Controller to lead and scale our finance function across our U.S. and Canadian entities. This senior, hands‑on leadership role is responsible for owning day‑to‑day financial operations while building the systems, processes, and team needed to support a multi‑entity organization. You will report to the CFO. The ideal candidate is both a strong operator and a people leader, someone who can ensure accuracy and compliance today while designing a finance organization that can scale for the future.

Responsibilities

Financial Operations & Oversight

  • Own and oversee all accounting and financial operations across U.S. and Canadian entities, including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and cash management.
  • Lead month‑end and year‑end close processes, ensuring timely, accurate reporting across all entities, including intercompany transactions and foreign currency considerations.
  • Prepare and review financial statements in compliance with US GAAP and applicable Canadian statutory requirements (IFRS familiarity strongly preferred).
  • Manage cash flow forecasting, banking relationships, and short- and long‑term financial planning.
  • Oversee payroll compliance and accuracy across jurisdictions, including coordination with external providers.
  • Ensure compliance with all federal, state / provincial, and local tax requirements in the U.S. and Canada, including income tax, payroll tax, sales tax, and filings.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors, tax advisors, and other financial partners.
  • Lead and manage annual audits, ensuring a high standard of organization, documentation, and proactive communication with auditors and internal stakeholders throughout the process.

Leadership & Team Development

  • Lead, mentor, and support the accounting team, setting clear expectations and priorities.
  • Provide day‑to‑day guidance and coaching to ensure the team operates efficiently, accurately, and with strong ownership of responsibilities.
  • Strengthen team workflows, roles, and controls to improve consistency, accountability, and quality across all finance activities.
  • Partner cross‑functionally with leadership, People Ops, and Operations to support business decision‑making and ensure alignment across the organization.
  • Process Improvement & Scalability

  • Review and optimize existing multi‑entity finance processes, identifying inefficiencies and inconsistencies between U.S. and Canadian operations.
  • Design and implement improved controls, documentation, and standard operating procedures.
  • Identify and lead opportunities for automation and system improvements (ERP, reporting tools, reconciliation tools) to improve efficiency, speed, and visibility.
  • Develop and execute a roadmap for the future‑state finance function, balancing near‑term needs with long‑term scalability.
  • Lead the accounting team through acquisitions and integrations, including purchase accounting, systems / process alignment, and post‑close reporting.
  • Ensure accurate, timely integration of acquired entities into existing financial, payroll, and compliance frameworks while maintaining business continuity.
  • Who You Are

  • 10+ years of progressive experience in finance and accounting, with a minimum of 5 years in a Controller or senior finance leadership role.
  • Direct, recent experience managing the full‑cycle accounting and reporting for multiple countries, specifically the U.S. and Canada entities.
  • Proven experience in a highly hands‑on role where tactical execution and strategic oversight were balanced.
  • Experience supporting acquisitions, integrations, or significant business changes, with the ability to bring structure, clarity, and stability in evolving environments.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of finance technology and automation tools (ERP systems, reporting software, etc.).
  • Strong knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP). Familiarity with Canadian GAAP / IFRS is a significant advantage.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to manage a team and collaborate effectively in a high‑pressure environment.
  • Benefits & Rewards

  • Purpose‑driven organization.
  • Flexible time off.
  • Remote‑first.
  • Flexible work hours—our employees are in multiple time zones.
  • Medical & dental plans.
  • Parental leave.
  • Employee stock options.
  • #J-18808-Ljbffr
