Placement Story

In the dynamic world of commercial and residential construction, Pacific Executive Search successfully placed a CPA-certified candidate with over 9 years of progressive leadership experience in corporate accounting, financial reporting, and enterprise integration initiatives. The Denver-based role required a candidate with expertise in GAAP, proficiency in Microsoft Excel, and a strong background in public accounting. The search was particularly challenging due to the confidential nature of the Assistant Controller role and the need for a candidate ready for future promotion to a Corporate Controller position. Our chosen candidate, having led corporate accounting operations and owned and managed close timelines at a publicly traded organization, was an ideal fit. His experience in supporting SEC reporting and managing complex integrations was instrumental in delivering accurate and timely financial results, contributing to landmark construction projects in the area.
