Controller

Lifetime Quality Roofing is hiring a Controller to own day-to-day accounting and financial reporting. You will own the monthly close, job-level profitability, cash, and compliance across our multi-state roofing operation.

Responsibilities:

Close and reporting

• Own the monthly close: bank and credit card reconciliations, accruals, and branch-level P&Ls, delivered by business day 10.
• Partner with FP&A to produce a monthly package for ownership: P&L by branch, cash position, AR/AP aging, backlog, and gross margin vs. budget.
• Maintain the chart of accounts and close checklist so the process is documented and repeatable.

Cash, AR, and AP

• Run a rolling 13-week cash forecast, updated weekly.
• Own collections: insurance carrier checks, homeowner balances, and deductibles. Report aging weekly.
• Run the weekly AP and subcontractor/crew payment cycle.

Payroll, commissions, and compliance

• Oversee sales commission calculation and accuracy across states.
• Own multi-state sales tax, payroll tax, licensing, and 1099 compliance; coordinate with the outside CPA on year-end and tax filings.

Systems and team

• Own the job-management system (AccuLynx) to accounting handoff and the accounting software; fix integration and data-entry gaps at the source.
• Supervise and develop the AP/AR and bookkeeping staff.
• Build and document SOPs for every recurring accounting task.

Requirements:

Must have

• 3-5 years of accounting experience in a home service business (roofing, exterior, HVAC, plumbing, or similar).
• Multi-state, multi-branch accounting, including sales tax and payroll tax.
• Proven record of closing the books on a fixed timeline and building a repeatable process.
• Has supervised accounting staff.
• Bachelor's degree in accounting or finance.

Nice to have

• Experience improving margins and cash flow in a growing multi-branch company.
