i’ve written about a cpa going to work for a small client who was creating a controller’s position.
today i’ll talk about going to work for a client who already has a controller or working for a large company.

the company that already has a controller is a much safer bet for a departing cpa. the position is established, the work is integrated with the outside accounting firm that will maintain its role and there is a place in the management hierarchy. the role is clear and the cpa knows what to expect in terms of daily activity. if there are growth opportunities for the company, the controller could or would be part of them.
