    Controller — NetSuite Implementation & Multi-Unit Retail

    Monmouth Cards · Remote (U.S.) · Full-time

    About Monmouth Cards

    Monmouth Cards is one of the fastest-growing specialty retailers in the trading card and collectibles category. We operate eleven stores across New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Arizona, a rapidly scaling e-commerce business, live commerce, and a growing events and vending operation.

    The Role

    This is a hands-on Controller role with an unusually clear mandate: own the NetSuite implementation and transition, then run a clean, timely close on it.

    We are moving off QuickBooks. You will lead that migration end to end — chart of accounts design, data conversion, POS and e-commerce integrations, inventory and multi-location setup, and cutover. After go-live, you own the monthly close, the reporting package, and the financial infrastructure that supports both our store expansion and an eventual outside investment or transaction.

    You will report to the COO/CFO and work directly with the CEO. This is a build role, not a maintenance role.

    What You'll Do

    NetSuite implementation

    Lead the QuickBooks-to-NetSuite migration, working with our implementation partner and internal team

    Design the chart of accounts, entity and location structure, and reporting segments for a multi-store, multi-channel retailer

    Own integrations: point of sale, Shopify, banking, payroll, and inventory

    Build inventory accounting that works for a business with high SKU velocity, trade-ins, consignment and grading

    Manage data conversion, parallel testing, cutover and post-go-live stabilization

    Ongoing accounting and control (after go-live)

    Own the monthly close and deliver it on a predictable calendar

    Produce store-level P&Ls and channel-level reporting that operators actually use

    Own inventory accounting and reconciliation across stores, warehouse and e-commerce

    Manage cash, AP, AR, banking relationships and lender reporting

    Build the internal controls, documentation and audit trail a company our size needs

    Support diligence: prepare normalized financial statements and respond to investor and lender requests

    Partner with our outside CPA on tax and compliance

    What We're Looking For

    Required

    5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including a Controller or Assistant Controller role

    Deep, hands-on NetSuite experience — you have implemented it or led a migration to it, not just used it

    Multi-entity and multi-location accounting experience

    Strong inventory accounting background in a retail, e-commerce or distribution environment

    Demonstrated ability to own a monthly close independently and improve it

    Comfortable working in a company where processes are still being built

    Strongly preferred

    CPA

    Experience in specialty retail, e-commerce, or consumer products

    Experience preparing a company for diligence, a financing, or a transaction

    Familiarity with retail POS systems and Shopify

    Not required

    Knowledge of trading cards or collectibles. We will teach you the category.

    Why This Role Is Interesting

    You own the system. You are not inheriting someone else's NetSuite build. You are designing it for a business that will double.

    Real scope. Eleven stores today, 20–25 within two years, four channels, multi-state operations.

    Direct access. You work with the COO/CFO and CEO, not four layers down.

    You will see the results of your work. Every store P&L, every channel report, every close — you build the picture the company runs on.

    Details

    Location: Remote within the United States. Occasional travel to our New Jersey headquarters for close cycles, planning and the NetSuite cutover.
