About the Opportunity

Our client is a $600M-plus clean-energy services provider that has recently relocated its headquarters to the Denver metro and is embarking on an enterprise-wide finance transformation. With revenue projected to cross the $1B threshold within the next three years, they are rebuilding the accounting function from the ground up and need a hands-on leader to bring structure, rigor, and innovation to a rapidly scaling organization.

What You’ll Tackle

• Own monthly and quarterly close activities – including balance-sheet reconciliations and eliminations – for a portfolio of 20+ operating entities, driving a continuous reduction in close timelines.
• Coach and mentor a staff of six accounting professionals, setting clear goals, upskilling the bench, and promoting a culture of accuracy and accountability.
• Serve as accounting lead on a new cloud ERP rollout (Microsoft Dynamics 365), audit readiness (independent and ESOP), and process documentation initiatives.
• Maintain robust internal controls and ensure adherence to US GAAP, with specific focus on ASC 606 (revenue) and ASC 842 (leases).
• Partner with FP&A and operations leaders to interpret financial results, investigate anomalies, and recommend corrective actions that support aggressive growth goals.
• Identify and execute workflow improvements to streamline reconciliations, consolidations, and reporting in a fast-paced, lightly documented environment.

What You Bring

• 7-10 years of progressive accounting experience, including leadership of high-performing teams.
• Demonstrated success managing multi-entity consolidations and complex projects in a high-growth, PE-backed or similarly dynamic setting.
• Deep working knowledge of GAAP (ASC 606 & 842 a must) and strong analytical skills.
• Track record of guiding ERP migrations or major system enhancements (Dynamics 365 or similar preferred).
• CPA or equivalent credential valued but not required.

Why This Role

• Direct line to the Controller and CFO; your work shapes the trajectory toward $1B+ revenue.
• Influence new processes, policies, and technologies from day one rather than inheriting an entrenched playbook.
• As the organization scales, the Accounting Manager path expands to Senior Manager or Director within 24-36 months.
• Collaborative executive team, regular company events, and an employee-first mindset – even while moving fast.
