The role
Danaher runs lean, which means our Controller owns the full ledger rather than a slice of it. The mid-level role rewards what you've built — 4 years of SOX Compliance — with $58,000 - $84,000 and a voice in Danaher strategy.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare board-ready financial packages and maker-minded executive summaries
- Pressure-test pricing models before they reach the Danaher board
- Carry the mid-level budget reforecast through three rounds of leadership review
- Validate revenue recognition in line with current accounting standards
- Maintain the chart of accounts and ensure consistent coding
- Forecast working capital tight enough to avoid a community-minded cash crunch
What You'll Bring
- 5+ years putting CPA Certification to work in a finance setting
- Knowledge of OH-specific regulations relevant to finance work
- A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat
- A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
