Corporate Controller

Description

The Corporate Controller reports to the CFO and leads the accounting and reporting function. You will own the integrity of the numbers, run a tight close, keep us audit- and SOX-ready, and build the processes, systems, and team that let finance keep pace with 20%+ growth. You will work side by side with the CFO and the finance leadership team, and across Sales, Operations, Product, Legal, and Engineering.

You are as comfortable partnering with a business leader on a vendor contract or deal structure question as you are reviewing a technical accounting memo.### Key Responsibilities

What You Will

Own* Accounting and close: Lead the monthly, quarterly, and annual close with speed and accuracy, including revenue recognition across hardware, software, and subscription models, and technical accounting for complex and non-routine transactions.

• Financial reporting: Deliver timely, accurate GAAP financial statements and management reporting, and partner with FP&A to give leadership clear, decision-ready insight.
• International: Oversee accounting, consolidation, statutory reporting, and compliance for our international entities, including currency and intercompany matters.
• Accounts Payable: Own the procure-to-pay process, driving efficiency, strong controls, and good vendor relationships.
• SOX and internal controls: Design, run, and continually improve a SOX-ready control environment that scales, and prepares Brivo for the demands of public-company reporting.
• Annual audit: Lead the external audit relationship and process, from planning through sign-off, with no surprises.
• Tax and treasury: Today, you will oversee tax compliance and planning and manage treasury and working with external advisors and banking partners. As Brivo scales, we expect to add specialized leadership in these areas, and you will help shape that.
• Team and systems: Recruit, develop, and inspire a high-performing accounting team, and drive automation and AI-enabled tools that make finance faster and smarter.

This role is as much about building as running: expect to define the roadmap for how finance scales over the next two to three years.### Skills, Knowledge & Expertise
