About the role and what you'll be doing:

The Global Corporate Controller is responsible for the integrity, accuracy, and scalability of Ensono’s global accounting and financial reporting operations. This role leads the global controllership function for a complex, multinational, private‑equity–backed technology services company and serves as a key thought partner to the CFO and executive leadership team.

The Controller ensures strong financial governance while enabling growth, transformation, and operational agility. This leader must be a technology‑forward executive who leverages systems, automation, and data as strategic enablers. They will modernize accounting operations, strengthen technical accounting rigor, and develop a high‑performing global team aligned to Ensono’s strategic priorities.

This role requires the confidence of a seasoned technical accountant combined with the communication style of a business partner — serving as both Ensono’s de facto accounting authority and a translator of complex concepts into clear commercial terms for non‑finance stakeholders. The Controller will operate with significant autonomy and must bring PE‑environment literacy, global operational experience, sound independent judgment, and transparent communication, ensuring decisions uphold Ensono’s values and credibility with auditors, lenders, and ownership.

Key Responsibilities:

Global Accounting & Close

• Lead Ensono’s global accounting organization, including record‑to‑report, consolidation, intercompany, revenue accounting, payroll accounting, and statutory reporting.

• Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, ensuring timeliness, accuracy, and consistency across global entities.

• Establish and enforce global accounting standards, procedures, and close disciplines.

• Navigate complex revenue arrangements with Fortune 1000 clients across managed services, cloud, and consulting offerings, demonstrating technical confidence under tight deadlines.

• Leverage AI and emerging technologies to accelerate research and pressure‑test accounting positions, while maintaining judgment and integrity in decision‑making.

Financial Reporting & Compliance

• Oversee preparation and review of internal and external financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and applicable local requirements.

• Serve as primary point of contact for external auditors, managing audit planning, execution, and resolution of issues.

• Maintain a strong internal control environment and governance framework appropriate for a PE‑backed organization.

• Ensure compliance with statutory, regulatory, lender, and PE‑ownership reporting obligations globally.

• Execute with discipline in meeting tight reporting deadlines, covenant compliance requirements, and M&A‑related reporting.

Governance & Internal Controls

• Design, implement, and continuously enhance internal controls and governance protocols for new business initiatives, M&A integration, and international expansion.

• Partner closely with Legal to ensure global regulatory compliance, contract accounting alignment, and risk mitigation.

• Proactively identify and remediate deficiencies, ensuring audit readiness at all times.

• Uphold Ensono’s standards of integrity and push back constructively when business pressures challenge technical accounting norms.

Technical Accounting & Policy Leadership

Own complex technical accounting matters, including:

• Revenue recognition for large, multi‑element contracts and cloud offerings.

• Business combinations, purchase accounting, and integration activities.

• Lease accounting, equity‑based compensation, debt reporting, and restructuring activities.

• Develop, document, and govern accounting policies and position papers, ensuring clarity for both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

Communication & Translation Skills

• Translate complex accounting matters into clear, commercially relevant language for executives and business leaders without accounting backgrounds.

• Communicate decisions that carry business implications in a way that builds trust, avoids unnecessary friction, and strengthens the credibility of the accounting function.

• Partner across the business to ensure understanding and alignment on accounting implications of strategic initiatives.

Technology Systems & Process Transformation

• Champion use of automation, ERP optimization, and AI/ML‑enabled workflows to improve accuracy, speed, and scalability.

• Lead finance transformation initiatives and data architecture improvements in partnership with IT and Operations.

• Support scalability of systems and processes to enable growth and future acquisitions.

Leadership & Talent Development

• Build, lead, and develop a global controllership team, including regional and functional leaders in jurisdictions such as the UK, Poland, Brazil, Germany, and India.

• Establish clear accountability, expectations, and succession planning.

• Manage local GAAP oversight through regional leaders and external advisors.

• Foster a culture of ownership, collaboration, proactive leadership, and continuous improvement aligned with Ensono’s values.
