Controller Job in San Diego 92154, California US
Are you a controller who knows running a small business (10 million in Revenue) accounting department is about communication? If you know that then you probably know that the accounting department in any good business should produce information to help the business grow. If you agree you should keep reading but if not then let’s not waste your time or ours because you wouldn’t like working for our company.
Now if you’re still reading let’s say you and I worked together at one time in the past and I received a call from a recruiter and the recruiter asked “Can you tell me if he/she managed the cash flow?” I would answer “Yes, they managed the cash by making sure the customers were billed according to the terms we’ve established and they followed great collection processes to make sure our cash was collected as quickly as possible. Our suppliers and vendors were always paid on time. We had an updated cash projection every week to make sure we knew the cash ins and outflows for the next month. They also did a budget every year and made sure we had credit facilities in place far in advance of Company need. We never ran out of money because of their excellent cash management.” If I could make the last statement about you without any reservations you’re looking good but keep reading.
The recruiter then asks, “Does he/she know how to teach people?” I would say, “They have a knack for teaching people how to do their job. They never yelled because something wasn’t right they just kept working with them to train to the procedure.” Now we’re really close to a great fit if I could say that about you.
We would like someone who is proficient with the Enterprise Edition of QuickBooks and has the capacity to review more advanced ERP systems and help the executive team select the system that’s a best fit for the Company. Since we have many Spanish speaking people you would need to know how to read, write and speak Spanish or it would make this life changing opportunity hard on both of us. You should have a passport or the ability to obtain one too because we manufacture in Mexico and although your office would be in Otay Mesa you would need to drive over the boarder a few times a week to manage the company accounting on all levels. So were on the same page from the start the right person would know our company controller position is not an 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM career, you would be expected to work the hours necessary to accomplish the objectives of your position.
So we have full disclosure you would be walking into a bit of a mess but you’d have all the resources we could muster to help you straighten things out so we can get you to focus on the objectives or your position quickly. The accounting teammate who helps us succeed will be invited to establish a CFO position in our company. Our future is bright we just need the right Controller to help us grow.
If we’ve describe you, please send your resume as an attachment to an email that introduces you to us to otaymesacareer2012@gmail.com .
