Corporate Financial Controller   $400,000 USD/year

Description

Step beyond the ordinary finance role. If you're driven to build systems that matter and not just crunch numbers, your future awaits here. At Trilogy, we're revolutionizing education with dynamic new models, and we need a financial infrastructure as innovative as our vision.

Join us to lead a lean, AI-centric finance function that fuels groundbreaking education ventures. It's about crafting systems that eliminate complexity and drive scale, not just managing the status quo. Partner with senior leaders to shape the future of learning for millions, and leave your mark on education's next evolution.

If you're ready to redefine the finance function and be at the forefront of educational change, your journey starts now.

What you will be doing

  • Crafting and sustaining a cutting-edge, AI-driven finance ecosystem tailored for rapidly expanding educational enterprises
  • Developing pivotal design frameworks that streamline and expand essential financial processes
  • Engaging in critical analysis and enhancement strategies with written guidance that refines reasoning for both AI and human teams
  • Contributing to strategic discussions on financial planning, growth, vendor agreements, and regulatory compliance
  • Ensuring seamless execution of financial operations—tuition management, audits, and tax obligations—at scale

What you will NOT be doing

  • Overseeing a large finance team
  • Micromanaging monthly financial close processes or manually handling transactions
  • Settling for standard ERP processes
  • Outsourcing challenging tasks—this role thrives on direct involvement
  • Operating in a slow-paced, stable setting—this is a fast-paced, growth-oriented role

Key responsibilities

Engineer and manage a streamlined, AI-focused financial system that empowers several high-growth educational ventures, ensuring efficiency and scalability without any excess.

Candidate requirements

  • Holding a CPA, ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CFA, or MBA
  • Over 10 years in finance leadership roles such as Finance Manager, Controller, CFO, or similar, showcasing depth and advancement
  • Proven experience in a senior finance leadership capacity (SVP, CFO, or equivalent) with comprehensive ownership of all primary finance functions
  • Strong expertise in US GAAP and comprehensive financial statement management
  • Extensive experience with ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, etc.) in complex, multi-entity settings
  • Led or participated in 5+ external audits with a Big 4 firm, either as auditor or client
  • Exceptional written and spoken English skills, capable of engaging with senior executives
  • Located within UTC-8 to UTC+3 time zones

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of U.S. K-12 education systems (private, charter, ESA programs)

  • Familiarity with finance operations in multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction environments
