A rapidly growing investment platform in the renewable energy space is seeking a hands-on Controller to help build and scale its internal finance function.

This is a high-impact role where you’ll lead the transition of accounting in-house, own the monthly close and financial reporting, and implement scalable processes and controls across a multi-entity environment. You’ll work closely with senior leadership and gain exposure to structured finance,

tax equity transactions, and investor reporting.

  • Develop, implement, and enforce internal controls, policies, and procedures across a multi-entity structure
  • Oversee and support tax, audit, and compliance processes, including coordination with external auditors and tax advisors
  • Operate within a high-volume transaction environment (~6,000 assets), ensuring data integrity across CRM and accounting systems
  • Establish controls to ensure accuracy and completeness of data flows between operational systems and the general ledger

What We’re Looking For

  • 8+ years of accounting experience (Controller or strong #2)
  • Experience in high-growth, fast-paced environments
  • CPA strongly preferred
  • Strong understanding of GAAP and internal controls
  • Exposure to renewable energy, tax equity, or structured finance
  • Hands-on, detail-oriented, and comfortable building from the ground up
