The Opportunity – Senior Director, Controller (Remote - USA / Canada)

Wrapbook is building the financial infrastructure of the project economy — and we're looking for a seasoned Controller to lead the accounting function through its next chapter. Reporting to the CFO, you will own and evolve the financial system of record for a complex, multi-product fintech platform spanning payroll, payments, and production accounting.

If you’re looking to maintain existing processes, this isn’t the role. If you want to rebuild and scale a modern accounting function, it is. We're in the middle of an AI-driven transformation of our accounting function, and we need a leader who is genuinely excited about what that means — someone who thinks in systems, partners with engineers to build custom financial tooling, and drives efficiency through technology as a first instinct, not an afterthought.

You bring the technical accounting depth to keep us GAAP-compliant and audit-ready, the leadership to develop a high-performing team, and the product mindset to help us build finance infrastructure that scales.

What You'll Do

  • Own the integrity and consistency of financial data across accounting, billing, payroll, procurement, and analytics systems — ensuring financial data is accurate, usable, and trusted as the company’s source of truth

  • Own the monthly, quarterly, and year-end close — driving a fast, predictable cadence while continuously improving quality and reducing manual effort

  • Own the design and evolution of our financial systems architecture (GL, subledgers, workflows), partnering closely with Product and Engineering to build scalable, custom solutions

  • Drive automation across accounting workflows — including close, reconciliations, and reporting — leveraging AI and modern tooling to reduce manual work and improve data reliability

  • Lead audit readiness and maintain a strong internal controls environment, ensuring the company is consistently audit-ready as it scales

  • Own technical accounting and policy development, ensuring GAAP compliance and consistency across the organization

  • Deliver clear, decision-useful financial reporting and insights to leadership, enabling better and faster business decisions

  • Act as a cross-functional leader, driving financial discipline across Product, Operations, and Go-to-Market teams

  • Build and lead a high-performing, accountable accounting organization (~10 people), including hiring, developing, and structuring the team for scale

  • Oversee tax compliance across federal, state, and local jurisdictions in the US and Canada

What You'll Have

  • Strong foundation (10+ years) in accounting and financial operations (CPA required), with experience in high-growth SaaS, fintech, or similarly complex environments

  • High ownership and impact orientation - you see finance as a core business enabler, not a support function

  • Proven track record of building and scaling accounting functions with an operator mindset - you default to systems, automation, and leverage over manual processes

  • Deep technical accounting expertise (including revenue recognition), with experience leading audit readiness activities and establishing controls in a fast-moving environment

  • Experience designing and implementing scalable financial systems and workflows, ideally in partnership with Product and Engineering teams

  • Hands-on experience using AI and automation tools (e.g., LLMs, workflow automation platforms, AI-forward ERPs) to improve accounting workflows - with a demonstrated ability to experiment, iterate, and drive real efficiency gains

  • Track record of building high-performing, accountable teams with clear ownership and measurable outputs

  • Clear, direct communicator who can translate complex financial concepts into insights for cross-functional partners and leadership

  • Growth mindset and builder mentality — you’re energized by ambiguity, continuously look for better ways of operating, and actively raise the bar as the company scales

What We Do

Employers in media production and the entertainment industry are constantly hiring. Freelance employees move between projects and could get onboarded 30 or more times in a single year. And yet, much of the industry uses physical paperwork with no easy way to track payments, often struggling with compliance (due to ever-changing laws and union rules), and has few automation processes in place when it comes time to send payroll reports to their accountants. Wrapbook is an intuitive payroll and insurance solution for those balancing multiple projects. With digital solutions, simplified compliance, and comprehensive reporting, we take the stress away so employers and project-based workers can focus on the big picture. Commercial producers, filmmakers, and anyone creating media deserve robust solutions to meet their unique demands. With Wrapbook, you only have to ask for documents from cast and crew once. Our platform lets you move all the onboarding forms associated with any crew from a project to any future ones, giving you back hours. By swapping out paper timecards with digital ones, approving payroll is now a piece of cake. Crew can log into Wrapbook from any device to enter their hours and expenses. Providing producers with the right tools to onboard crew and process payments helps them put routine work on auto-pilot. That way, they can focus on more compelling tasks. Let us tackle paperwork, payroll, and insurance, so you can continue creating the work that matters.
