• Lead a small sales team by setting expectations, reviewing pipeline activity, and tracking revenue performance against forecast and budget targets.
• Oversee pricing, quoting, invoicing, revenue recognition, and collections to support healthy cash flow and consistent financial accuracy.
• Review bank reconciliations, general ledger activity, accruals, and closing entries, while contributing to month-end and year-end financial close processes.
• Prepare regular management reporting on margins, sales results, cash position, and process improvement opportunities, and coach direct reports across billing and sales functions.

Qualifications:

• Minimum of 7 years of experience in finance, accounting, or transformation leadership roles with responsibility for costing, reporting, and revenue oversight.
• Demonstrated knowledge of job costing, project costing, budgeting, revenue analysis, and company revenue recognition practices, including deferred revenue concepts.
• Experience leading or supervising cross-functional teams in areas such as sales support, billing, accounts receivable, or finance operations.
• Strong understanding of core accounting activities, including reconciliations, general ledger maintenance, accruals, and period-end close procedures.
• Proficiency with CRM tools and financial reporting processes, with the ability to translate data into meaningful business insights.
• Skilled in identifying margin risks, resolving billing discrepancies, and improving financial controls and workflow efficiency.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities, with confidence working closely with leadership, sales, and operations teams.
