An Opportunity for an Experienced Finance & Administration Professional We are an industry-leading custom technology integration firm located in beautiful downtown Santa Barbara, California, with more than three decades of success serving our local community. We specialize in high-end residential and specialty commercial projects, representing many of the finest brands in our industry. Our reputation has been built on delivering an exceptional client experience, maintaining the highest standards of quality, and developing long-term relationships with our clients, employees, and professional partners. One of our greatest competitive advantages is our family-centered culture, financial stability, and deep-rooted history in the Santa Barbara community. Demand for our services remains strong, and as our company continues to grow, we are looking for an experienced Controller with administration experience to join our leadership team. This is a hands-on leadership position for a finance professional who enjoys more than accounting. In addition to owning the company's financial and accounting functions, this individual will oversee key administrative responsibilities including employee benefits, insurance, risk management, compliance, and vendor programs. If you're highly organized, financially disciplined, comfortable taking ownership, and take pride in getting the details right, this is an opportunity to play an important role in the continued success of an established and growing company. You Need… Respect, recognition, challenge, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact. You want to work for a financially stable organization that trusts your judgment and gives you the authority to take ownership of your responsibilities. You thrive in a positive, collaborative environment where accountability matters and people follow through on their commitments. You enjoy creating structure, maintaining accurate information, solving problems, improving processes, and helping leadership make informed decisions. You understand that details matter—whether you're reviewing a financial statement, reconciling an account, administering employee benefits, evaluating an insurance renewal, or ensuring the company remains compliant. Most importantly, you take ownership and deliver on your promises. Doing it right counts. We Want… An experienced, organized, and highly accountable Controller to oversee the financial health, accuracy, and compliance of our company. We are looking for someone with strong accounting and financial-management experience who is also comfortable overseeing broader administrative responsibilities, including HR and benefits administration, insurance, risk management, compliance, and vendor programs. You are professional, discreet, analytical, and exceptionally detail-oriented. You can move comfortably between financial reporting and day-to-day administrative responsibilities while maintaining accuracy and confidentiality. You don't simply report numbers—you understand what they mean, identify issues, ask questions, and provide leadership with the information needed to make sound business decisions.
