We've seen the typical DSO controller profile and found it lacking in process rigor, ownership mentality, and technical capability. This is a role for a builder - someone who wants to run clean books, own outcomes, and operate at a higher standard. Employment Type: Full Time Salary: $140,000 - $170,000 Annual
