## About the role

As the Controller , you oversee the full accounting operation across Convergent, its disregarded entities and its subsidiaries, from the general ledger and monthly close to internal controls, audit and regulatory compliance. You will also build and run our federal grants program: designing the compliance infrastructure, monitoring every award, and executing against 2 CFR Part 200 from award setup to closeout. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Audit-seasoned. You have participated in more audits and single audits than you can count and have filed just as many 990s. You know what the auditors will ask before they ask it
- A people leader. You have led accounting teams, including managers. You set clear standards, review work closely and help your team grow
- Pleasantly detail-obsessed. You sweat the details, but don’t get hung up on immaterial ones. You know when it’s appropriate to push back for compliance or GAAP sake
- Systems-savvy. You enjoy working with multiple systems and have a firm grasp of accounting systems. You know when to ask for systems help too!
- A natural collaborator. You can translate a complex journal entry into plain English for a non-finance colleague without breaking a sweat
