VP, Global Corporate Controller

At Ensono, our Purpose is to be a relentless ally, disrupting the status quo and unleashing our clients to Do Great Things!  We enable our clients to achieve key business outcomes that reshape how our world runs. As an expert technology adviser and managed service provider with cross-platform certifications, Ensono empowers our clients to keep up with continuous change and embrace innovation.

We can Do Great Things because we have great Associates. The Ensono Core Values unify our diverse talents and are woven into how we do business. These five traits are the key to achieving our purpose:

Honesty, Reliability, Curiosity, Collaboration, and Passion.

The Global Corporate Controller is responsible for the integrity, accuracy, and scalability of Ensono’s global accounting and financial reporting operations. This role leads the global controllership function for a complex, multinational, private‑equity–backed technology services company and serves as a key thought partner to the CFO and executive leadership team.

The Controller ensures strong financial governance while enabling growth, transformation, and operational agility. This leader must be a technology‑forward executive who leverages systems, automation, and data as strategic enablers. They will modernize accounting operations, strengthen technical accounting rigor, and develop a high‑performing global team aligned to Ensono’s strategic priorities.

This role requires the confidence of a seasoned technical accountant combined with the communication style of a business partner — serving as both Ensono’s de facto accounting authority and a translator of complex concepts into clear commercial terms for non‑finance stakeholders. The Controller will operate with significant autonomy and must bring PE‑environment literacy, global operational experience, sound independent judgment, and transparent communication, ensuring decisions uphold Ensono’s values and credibility with auditors, lenders, and ownership.
