We operate in a decentralized model and are in an active period of growth through continued acquisition and expansion.\nAs our portfolio grows, we're investing in the financial infrastructure, controls, processes, and accounting talent needed to support that growth. We're looking for a Controller to help lead that effort across Pine and our operating companies.\nWho We Need\nPine Services Group is seeking a Controller to strengthen accounting leadership across our growing portfolio. Reporting to the CFO, you'll partner closely with Pine's finance team and the Controllers and accounting leaders across our operating companies to drive accounting rigor, develop talent, and build scalable processes and controls.\nThis is a strategic accounting leadership role rather than a day-to-day, in-the-weeds Controller position. We're looking for someone who can see across multiple businesses, identify opportunities to improve how we operate, and then work with accounting leaders to make those improvements happen.\nYou'll play a key role in initiatives including IPO readiness and controls, multi-entity accounting and consolidation, banking and treasury optimization, and the continued development of Pine's accounting organization.\nWhat You'll Do\nProvide accounting leadership and guidance to Controllers and accounting teams across Pine's operating companies\nPartner with operating company Controllers to strengthen close processes, financial reporting, accounting policies, controls, and overall financial discipline\nMentor and develop Pine's accounting team and operating company accounting leaders,

reporting rigor\nEstablish scalable accounting policies, procedures, and best practices that can be applied across a growing, decentralized portfolio\nProvide guidance on multi-entity consolidation, intercompany accounting, and consolidated financial reporting\nIdentify opportunities to standardize and improve accounting processes across operating companies while allowing for appropriate operating-company flexibility\nLead strategic banking and treasury initiatives, including the continued consolidation and optimization of banking relationships across the portfolio\nPartner with operating company leadership to identify control gaps, improve processes, and develop practical remediation plans\nSupport the integration of newly acquired companies into Pine's broader accounting framework\nServe as a trusted accounting resource and thought partner to operating company Controllers, Pine leadership, and cross-functional stakeholders\nPartner with the CFO on strategic accounting initiatives, acquisitions, financial reporting, and other special projects\nBuild relationships across a decentralized organization and drive accountability through influence rather than relying solely on direct authority\nWhat We're Looking For\nRequirements\n10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including significant experience in a Controller, Assistant Controller, Accounting Director, or comparable accounting leadership role\nPrior experience leading accounting within an operating company or business unit\nStrong understanding of US GAAP, financial reporting, month-end close, internal controls, and accounting processes\nExperience working across multiple entities, teams, or business units\nDemonstrated ability to develop and mentor accounting professionals and leaders\nStrong communication skills and the ability to build credibility with accounting, finance, operations, and executive leadership\nBachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field\nHigh ownership quotient with a track record of identifying problems, driving initiatives, and seeing improvements through to completion\nActive CPA license\nNice-to-Have\nMulti-entity consolidation and intercompany accounting experience\nExperience in a private equity-backed, acquisitive, or decentralized organization\nIPO readiness, SOX, or public-company financial reporting experience\nExperience developing or implementing internal control frameworks\nExperience integrating acquired companies or standardizing accounting processes across multiple entities\nExperience with banking, treasury, or cash-management optimization\nExperience leading and developing Controllers or other senior accounting leaders\nExperience with mid-market ERP or accounting
