Financial Controller

The Company

Unlimited Systems authors the category-leading Unlimited Financials practice management system focused on the unique revenue cycle requirements of specialty healthcare providers. Unlimited Systems customers enjoy streamlined business office workflows, reduced claim denial rates, and accelerated and amplified revenue streams. Unlimited Systems is committed to ensuring that specialty healthcare providers thrive in a dynamic reimbursement environment.

Unlimited Systems is building the financial infrastructure that a scaling, private-equity backed SaaS business demands — and the Controller will be the operational core of that infrastructure, ensuring the books are clean, the close is tight, and the numbers the CFO and Board rely on are always right.

The Challenge

In a PE-backed environment, financial accuracy is not a back-office concern — it is a trust and governance issue. Our Board will make decisions based on the numbers Unlimited Systems produces. The CFO presents them. The Controller owns them. When the books are late, the audit is messy, or a revenue recognition question surfaces without a clear answer, it is the Controller who is accountable for the resolution — and the integrity of the entire financial reporting function.

Unlimited Systems needs a Controller who brings both technical accounting depth and the operational discipline to build and manage the processes, systems, and team that make financial reporting consistently excellent. This is a high-accountability role in a company that is growing fast and needs its accounting function to grow with it — not catch up to it.

You will be solving for:

Owning a clean, consistent, on-time monthly close — building the processes, checklists, and team discipline that make the close predictable and the output trustworthy, every period without exception.

Ensuring GAAP financial statements are accurate, well-documented, and audit-ready at all times — so the annual audit is an orderly process, not a scramble, and the CFO can sign off with confidence.

Building the internal controls and accounting infrastructure appropriate to a scaling PE-backed SaaS company — establishing the policies, procedures, and segregation of duties that protect the business as it adds complexity and headcount.

Serving as the CFO's right hand on technical accounting questions — providing clear, well-reasoned answers on revenue recognition, lease accounting, stock-based compensation, and other complex areas with speed and precision.

You'll know you've succeeded when:

The monthly close consistently completes within five business days, with financial statements delivered to the CFO on time and requiring minimal revision.

The annual audit concludes with no material weaknesses, no significant deficiencies, and a management letter that reflects a well-controlled accounting environment.

Revenue recognition under ASC 606 is fully documented, consistently applied, and withstands scrutiny from the auditors, the Board, and any future transaction due diligence process.

The accounting team is well-staffed, well-managed, and capable of handling growing transaction volume and organizational complexity without a proportional increase in errors or close time.

The CFO relies on the Controller as the definitional owner of the numbers — and never wonders whether what has been reported is what actually happened.

​​​​​​​ The Position

A full-time, in-person role reporting to our CFO, you will work from our headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio.

As Controller, you will own the accounting function at Unlimited Systems — including the month-end close, financial statement preparation, technical accounting, audit management, internal controls, and the development of the accounting team. You will be the operational backbone of the Finance organization and the primary owner of financial reporting accuracy and integrity.

Key accountabilities include:

Month-End & Year-End Close — Owning the full close cycle from start to finish. Building and maintaining a close calendar, task checklist, and reviewing process that drives consistent on-time close completion. Ensuring that all journal entries, reconciliations, and accruals are prepared accurately and reviewed thoroughly before financial statements are issued.

GAAP Financial Statements — Preparing and owning the monthly, quarterly, and annual GAAP financial statements — income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement — with supporting schedules and variance commentary that give the CFO and Board the context they need to understand performance.

Budgeting & Forecasting Support — Partner with the CFO to build, maintain, and report against the annual operating budget. Own the accounting inputs to the monthly rolling forecast — including actuals consolidation, accrual accuracy, and departmental spend tracking — and provide the clean, timely actuals data that enables the FP&A function to produce accurate variance analysis and updated projections. Serve as the accounting bridge to the broader Finance team, ensuring forecast assumptions are grounded in what the books actually reflect.

Revenue Recognition (ASC 606) — Owning the company's revenue recognition policy and its application across all contract types — subscription, implementation, professional services, and any variable or usage-based components. Maintaining clear documentation of judgments and ensure consistent application across the portfolio. Serving as the internal authority on revenue recognition questions.

Audit Management — Leading the annual financial statement audit and any interim review procedures. Managing the auditor relationship, coordinating evidence preparation across the team, and ensuring the audit progresses on schedule with minimal disruption to daily operations. Owning the response to auditor findings and management letter comments.

Ensuring proper segregation of duties, approval workflows, and access controls are in place and operating effectively. Monitoring compliance and addressing control gaps proactively.

Technical Accounting — Researching and documenting accounting treatment for complex or non-routine transactions — including lease accounting (ASC 842), stock-based compensation (ASC 718), business combinations (ASC 805), and debt instruments — providing clear, well-reasoned memos that support consistent application and auditor confidence.

Accounts Payable & Receivable — Overseeing AP and AR operations, ensuring vendor payments are processed accurately and on schedule, customer invoices reflect contract terms correctly, and collections are managed actively. Ensuring the AR aging is clean and that revenue recorded matches cash collected.
