Group Controller, Director

Responsibilities

• Own the integrity and audit-quality of the financials. Take ownership of the company's accounting integrity and ensure financial reporting is accurate, compliant, and defensible across all entities - in partnership with the accounting team that runs the day-to-day close and statements.
• Own multi-entity consolidation and the controls around the close. Own clean, accurate multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation and the control framework that sits around the monthly close, so the numbers are dependable and audit-grade.
• Drive audit readiness. Document internal controls, implement defensible revenue recognition, and bring the company to a point where it can confidently face an external audit.
• Design and oversee the ERP migration. Lead the design of the QuickBooks-to-NetSuite (or equivalent) migration as the backbone of a more mature, audit-grade finance infrastructure, partnering with the accounting team and NetSuite consultants on execution.
• Build the control environment. Establish the accounting policies, internal controls, and process documentation a scaling, internationally distributed business needs.
• Own compliance, transfer pricing, and IP. Own multi-jurisdiction statutory compliance and international tax, and lead transfer pricing and the tracking of IP flows across entities for the group's structure - working closely with external advisors.
• Own key external relationships. Own the relationships with the company's banks, CPA firm, auditors, and core finance and accounting vendors, including bank communications and reporting.
• Lead a lean controllership team. Develop the dedicated support this function needs so controls, compliance, and consolidation scale with the business.
• We're looking for someone who has
• Senior experience. At a B2B SaaS or comparable technology company. You've built or materially upgraded an accounting function, not just maintained a mature one.
• ERP migration experience. You've led or played a central role in a finance systems upgrade. You understand what it takes to get from growing to audit-grade maturity.
• Ownership of a control environment. You've built the controls, documentation, and consolidation discipline behind a dependable close.
• Modern, tech-forward mindset. You're comfortable in an async-first, globally distributed environment where Slack and clear written communication are the default.
• Bonus points, if you have
• Experience integrating finance teams or functions post-acquisition.
• Experience building and experimenting with AI solutions. You've designed and implemented AI-assisted workflows or automations in a finance context, not just adopted existing tools.
• Familiarity with SaaS metrics. NDR, GRR, deferred revenue, and how the accounting supports them.

Benefits

Additional Information

SE Ranking is a profitable, growing B2B SaaS business - around 200 people, remote-first and globally distributed. As the business has scaled into a more complex multi-entity, multi-currency structure, we're hiring a senior controllership leader to own the integrity, accuracy, and audit-readiness of our books. This is a hands-on, build-oriented role for someone who takes real pride in well-controlled, audit-grade financials - and who wants to mature the accounting function as the company's structure and ambitions grow. You'll own the accounting backbone: multi-entity consolidation, internal controls, compliance, and the path to a clean external audit. You'll report to the CFO and work closely with the wider leadership team. If you're energised by raising the bar on how a scaling, multi-entity business runs its numbers, in a fast-moving, low-ego, global team, this is your role.
