Enterprise Controller with Roeslein & Associates

Lead the accounting operating model across Roeslein’s corporate and subsidiary entities, ensuring consistent accounting practices, clear ownership, and reliable execution across the organization. Oversee core accounting functions including general ledger, AP, AR, payroll accounting oversight, project accounting, cost-to-complete accounting, intercompany reconciliations, and accounting operations supporting multiple business units and P&Ls.

Own and improve the monthly, quarterly, and annual close processes across Roeslein’s operating entities. Establish close calendars, accountability standards, reconciliation discipline, documentation expectations, and reporting timelines that improve accuracy, consistency, and speed. Strengthen consolidation processes, internal controls, and reporting discipline to reduce variability in financial results and improve enterprise-wide visibility.

Provide leadership across a multi-entity environment that includes domestic and international operations. Improve coordination among accounting leaders, local finance teams, and external accounting resources to create a more unified enterprise accounting structure. Support consistency in accounting practices across geographies while recognizing the practical realities of local statutory, tax, and operating requirements.

Strengthen project accounting discipline and improve the connection between accounting outcomes and operating performance. Partner with operations and project management to improve cost-to-complete processes, project reporting, margin visibility, and financial accountability across project-based work.

Bring a strong systems orientation to the accounting function. Partner with IT and operations to improve financial systems, ERP workflows, reporting tools, data consistency, and process automation. Support Oracle implementation efforts and help ensure accounting processes are designed to scale with the business. Identify legacy workflow challenges, standardize processes where appropriate, and build reliable accounting infrastructure that supports faster, cleaner, and more useful reporting.

Serve as a key accounting partner to tax, treasury, and executive leadership. Ensure accounting processes support tax compliance, intercompany discipline, statutory reporting needs, cash visibility, audit readiness, and broader enterprise reporting requirements. The role does not need to be the company’s tax leader, but must understand how accounting decisions and intercompany activity interface with tax and treasury requirements.

Lead and develop accounting leaders and teams across corporate and operating-unit functions. Establish clear expectations, decision rights, performance standards, and ownership across the accounting organization. Build leadership capability within accounting teams while fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and practical business partnership.

This leader must operate with the highest ethical standards, sound judgment, and discretion. The Enterprise Controller will be trusted with confidential financial, operational, employee, and business information and must model integrity, professionalism, and credibility across the organization.
