About the role
- We're a PE-backed company with a clear strategic agenda and an active value-creation mandate.
- Decisions move at the pace of a company our size, access to leadership is direct, and the work you do here will be visible in the outcome.
- This is a role for someone who approaches accounting not as a compliance obligation but as a high-leverage operating system - one that should be continuously improved, increasingly automated, and built to scale.
Responsibilities
- Own the global financial close process and drive continuous improvement in its speed, quality, and scalability across all entities. Set the standard, measure against it, and keep raising the bar.
- Lead the accounting function's transformation agenda.
- Map what the team does today, identify where effort is not creating value, and build a disciplined roadmap toward a more efficient, more automated operation.
- Manage the external auditor relationship and lead the company's engagement with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
- Deliver clean, timely audited financial statements as a consistent baseline, and maintain the quality of governance and transparency that PE ownership and a future liquidity event require.
- Build and maintain a strong internal controls environment: policies and procedures that scale with the business, satisfy PE and audit committee expectations, and evolve as the regulatory and business environment changes.
- Develop a team that reflects the ambitions of the function - people who are genuinely excited about where accounting is going, not just where it's been.
- Invest in their growth, create real room for strong performers to develop with the company, and maintain the kind of environment where the best people want to build their careers.
- Collaborate with Legal, IT, Sales Ops, and FP&A to ensure accounting policy and process keep pace with an evolving commercial model, and advise cross-functional partners on the accounting implications of strategic and product decisions.
- Own the global financial close process and drive continuous improvement in its speed, quality, and scalability across all entities.
Requirements
- 12+ years of progressive accounting experience, with meaningful time in a controller or senior accounting leadership role at a SaaS or high-growth technology company.
- Deep technical accounting expertise: US GAAP, multi-entity consolidation, multi-currency, ASC 606 revenue recognition, and experience navigating complex technical accounting areas.
- Required:
- CPA required
- Big 4 experience is a strong preference.
- Deep technical accounting expertise: US GAAP, multi-entity consolidation, multi-currency, ASC 606 revenue recognition, and experience navigating complex technical accounting areas. Exposure to local statutory requirements across multiple jurisdictions is expected.
- Proven track record of improving financial close processes, upgrading accounting infrastructure, and building team capability in a high-growth or high-change environment.
- Preferred:
- M&A experience, from diligence support through purchase accounting and post-close integration.
Nice to have
- Demonstrated experience in a PE-backed environment - comfortable with investor-grade information standards, audit committee engagement, and the operational intensity that comes with active PE ownership.
- Strong NetSuite proficiency in a multi-entity environment, or equivalent enterprise ERP
- experience leading a material system migration or implementation is a meaningful plus.
- Genuine curiosity about technology and automation - you should have active opinions about how AI is changing accounting workflows, and evidence of putting those ideas to work.
- Multi-country tax compliance and transfer pricing experience in a global SaaS operating model.
- Background in vertical SaaS or hospitality technology.
Benefits
- Own all technical accounting - revenue recognition (ASC 606), purchase accounting, equity, M&A integration, debt, and other complex areas - and translate that complexity into clear, well-documented positions.
Company info
- Duetto is the industry-leading hospitality revenue management platform, trusted by thousands of hotels, resorts, and casinos worldwide to optimize revenue and drive profitable growth.
- Our SaaS platform - the Revenue & Profit Operating System - sits at the center of how modern hotel operators make their most important commercial decisions.
- The finance function we're building reflects that: data-driven, commercially fluent, and deeply integrated with how the business makes decisions.
- For the right candidate, this is a genuine build opportunity with real ownership of how the accounting function evolves, a team of engaged and operationally-minded partners, and a business that is well-positioned for its next chapter.
- Role Summary / Purpose
- The VP Accounting owns Duetto's global accounting function and serves as a key partner to the CFO in building the financial infrastructure that supports the company's growth and exit readiness.
- The right candidate brings deep technical accounting expertise alongside a genuine transformation mindset: equally comfortable redesigning a financial close process as they are resolving a complex technical accounting question.
- Beyond the day-to-day operational leadership of accounting, this role carries an explicit mandate to evaluate everything the team does through the lens of eliminate / simplify / automate, and to bring the discipline and creativity required to execute against that over time.
- The tools and AI-driven workflows available to finance teams are changing rapidly; we expect this role to stay ahead of that curve and put those capabilities to work.
- Ensure accurate and timely compliance with global payroll-related accounting and reporting obligations across all jurisdictions in which the company operates.
