About the Company

We are a rapidly growing U.S.-based e-commerce acquisition company. Our founders started as Amazon sellers, built their own brands into category leaders, and now acquire established consumer product brands from founders and larger aggregators.

Once a brand joins our portfolio, we run it with standardized workflows and a disciplined, cash-flow-first operating model. We have closed several multi-brand portfolio acquisitions over the past two years, funded by accredited investors, and the portfolio keeps growing.

We are a lean, high-performance team. People here own outcomes, move fast, and hold a high bar for the quality of their work.

About the Role

Every acquisition we close adds brands, entities, and sets of books. Our accounting workload grows with each deal, and the bar stays the same: a fast, clean close and numbers we can put in front of investors without a second pass.

Our Controller owns financial reporting, controls, and the close calendar. This role is the engine underneath that. You will run day-to-day accounting across our brand and fund entities, keep every ledger reconciled and current, and deliver close work that is accurate the first time.

This is a hands-on manager role for someone who wants ownership. You will be trusted with real responsibility from your first month, and as the portfolio grows, the role grows with it.

Prepare clean audit and tax support packages and answer auditor and tax advisor requests

E-commerce or Amazon seller accounting, including marketplace settlement reconciliation

Ideal Candidate Profile

You are:

A confident owner. You take a set of books from messy to clean and stand behind the numbers without needing someone to check every line.
Fast and precise. You move quickly through data and Excel, and your work products are complete and tidy the first time.
A clear communicator. You explain what you did and why in a few crisp sentences, and you are comfortable presenting your work to senior leadership.
Highly organized. You juggle multiple entities and deadlines without letting anything slip.
Motivated by challenge. You want a bigger scope as the company grows and you thrive on a team where the bar is high and performance is noticed.

Why Join Us

A growing portfolio. Each acquisition adds new brands and new problems to solve, so your scope expands with the business.
Real ownership. You will run accounting for real entities from day one, not one narrow slice of a process.
Direct access to leadership. You will work closely with the CFO and Controller and see how your work shapes acquisition and investor decisions.
A team that values performance. We move fast, hold a high standard, and recognize the people who deliver.
