Nexthink, a leader in digital employee experience management software, is seeking a Global Corporate Controller to report to the CFO. This is a director-level role overseeing multiple financial functions across a global organization with over 1,200 employees across 5 continents.
You will be responsible for global oversight of accounting processes, technical accounting, financial reporting, consolidation, financial systems, and internal and external audits.
