A financial controller uses advanced financial skills to analyze, prepare and oversee financial reporting processes. They are responsible for ensuring accuracy and compliance in financial statements and reports and overseeing the accounting practices within an organization in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Financial controllers have the following responsibilities:
- Recruit, hire and train members of the financial analyst team.
- Prepare financial statements, budgets and reports.
- Identify financial trends and make recommendations.
- Evaluate current budgets and identify ways to cut costs.
- Approve invoices and follow up with past-due accounts.
- Ensure compliance with internal controls, audit procedures and regulatory filings such as tax returns and financial disclosures.

“I’ve collaborated with controllers who operate like financial architects; they design the systems that keep a business stable. From managing audits to ensuring compliance with changing tax and GAAP standards, a controller’s insight drives confidence across the entire organization.”—Ashlee Malet , MBA in accounting
