This role demands a professional with a strong background in accounting and controllership, particularly within a financial services, big tech, fintech, or startup environment. The VP Finance Controller will lead a team in a high-volume, fast-paced setting, and must be adept at managing the full spectrum of accounting activities, from daily operations to strategic financial planning.
