Interim VP of Accounting

This interim contract engagement places you as the senior accounting leader for a fast-growing, VC-backed consumer e-commerce business generating more than $200M in annual revenue across multiple brands. Each brand operates its own NetSuite instance and P&L, with a shared tax and audit process. The role runs until a permanent VP of Accounting or Controller is hired, likely a 3-6 month window, and requires on-site presence in Denver.

You will report to the CFO and work closely with the CEO, COO, and Chief of Staff, providing the leadership team with reliable financial visibility while supporting and stabilising a 15-20 person onshore and offshore accounting team. The focus is on ensuring reporting accuracy, identifying process gaps, and helping the team operate effectively during the transition period.

• Lead and assess the onshore and offshore accounting team (15-20 people, including accounting managers and an Assistant Controller), and recommend improvements to structure and support.
• Review financial reports and team output before submission to senior leadership.
• Evaluate accounting processes across multiple NetSuite instances and entity P&Ls, identifying gaps and near-term improvements.
• Provide hands-on support to the team wherever capacity or expertise is needed.
• Participate in regular check-ins with the CFO, COO, Chief of Staff, and CEO.
• Maintain month-end close discipline and support audit and tax readiness across entities.

• Prior experience as a Controller, VP of Accounting, or CFO at a company with $200-500M in revenue.
• Strong GAAP knowledge with the ability to clearly articulate financial positions to leadership.
• Ability to work on-site in Denver, CO for the duration of the engagement.
• Availability to begin immediately.
• Bonus: e-commerce or direct-to-consumer background, VC-backed company experience, multi-entity and post-acquisition integration experience in NetSuite, and experience managing offshore accounting teams.
