About Coalmarch

Coalmarch is a digital marketing agency helping field service companies, especially in the pest and green industries, grow through our proprietary website platform and data-driven marketing strategies.

We’re a team of problem-solvers, builders, and operators who believe in growth through grit. We’ve been around for two decades, but our next chapter is more startup than legacy—new leadership, new systems, and a clear plan to scale from $8M to $50M and beyond.

The Role: Finance & Accounting Manager (Controller Track)

Coalmarch is looking for a rising finance professional who’s ready to take the next step—someone who can combine accounting precision with strategic curiosity. You’ll own the numbers that keep the business grounded today while helping shape the insights that drive where we go next. If you’ve ever wanted to help build the financial engine of a company that’s stable and scrappy, this is your moment.

You’ll own our accounting infrastructure, establish the processes and discipline that drive confidence, and evolve into a finance partner who influences decisions, strategy, and valuation.

This is a hands-on role today, with a direct path toward VP Finance responsibilities as we grow.

What You’ll Do

Build the foundation

• Own all accounting functions: GL, AP/AR, payroll, accruals, and reconciliations
• Lead month-end and year-end close; deliver accurate, timely financial packages
• Maintain compliance and internal controls in partnership with our CPA firm and Rippling (ASO)
• Manage client billing, vendor payments, and cash flow visibility

Shape the future

• Create scalable systems and dashboards that inform leadership decisions
• Develop forecasting and budgeting models that tie to EBITDA and margin targets
• Partner with the CEO and leadership team on pricing strategy, automation ROI, and resource planning
• Prepare investor-ready materials and board reports
• Build and eventually lead a finance team as we scale

What We’re Looking For

• Raleigh-area based
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA or CMA preferred)
• 5–8+ years of progressive accounting or finance experience, ideally in a service-based or SaaS environment
• A strong command of GAAP, cash flow management, and internal controls
• Hands-on familiarity with accounting systems and close processes—you know what “clean books” really means
• Curiosity about FP&A, valuation, M&A, and business growth mechanics—not just compliance
• Grit, humility, and hunger—someone who’s ready to punch above their title and build something lasting

Bonus points for:

• Experience in an EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) environment
• A Master’s degree (MBA or MS in Finance/Accounting) or working on completion

What’s In It For You

• Salary: $110K–$120K base + performance bonus tied to accuracy, timeliness, and EBITDA results
• Benefits: Health, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, hybrid work flexibility
• Work directly with the COO and CEO
• A direct mentorship path to VP Finance
• The chance to help architect the finance function of a company that’s doubling in size and have a seat at the table as we explore M&A, growth equity, and valuation milestones

You’ll fit right in if you’ve ever thought:

“I could run this place better if someone just gave me the chance.”

We’re giving you that chance. Let’s build something extraordinary.
