Job Purpose

Right hand to the CFO, the Controller owns the accuracy, timeliness and integrity of all accounting operations for a private-equity-backed, multi-club Crunch Fitness platform in a high-growth build-out. This is a hands-on role, fully immersed in improving the company's accounting systems, processes and people — helping drive the transition from an outsourced accounting model to an in-house function and helping execute the implementation of Sage Intacct as the platform's core financial system. The Controller reconciles franchisor-controlled billing to the general ledger, supports lender covenant and sponsor reporting, and stands up the scalable processes and controls a growing platform requires. Success in this role means an accounting function that can support both rapid new-club expansion and eventual transaction diligence.
