Working as a Remote Controller
Remote controller jobs lead a company's accounting function — owning the close, financial statements, internal controls, and the accounting team — as the senior accounting leader below the CFO. As accounting operations have moved to the cloud, a growing share of controller roles are now offered remotely.
Remote controller roles sit in companies of all sizes, from assistant controller to controller and corporate controller. Strong candidates pair deep GAAP and close experience with team leadership and systems knowledge; a CPA is common for these roles. The controller roles on this site are updated daily and include only positions employers advertised as remote.
Frequently asked questions
Are these controller jobs remote? +
Yes — every role posted on this site was advertised as remote by the employer. That's our single inclusion criterion: if a position wasn't presented as remote, it doesn't get listed, so every controller role here is a remote-advertised one. Please note that while we do our best to keep listings accurate, employers occasionally make mistakes in their own postings, so in rare cases a role advertised as remote may turn out not to be — we always recommend confirming the arrangement directly with the employer before you apply.
What does a remote controller do? +
A controller owns the month-end close, financial statements, and general ledger, oversees internal controls and the accounting team, supports audits, and reports to the CFO or owner.
Do controller roles require a CPA? +
A CPA is commonly preferred or required, particularly at larger companies, though strong hands-on experience can substitute at smaller ones. Check each listing for specifics.
What is the typical salary for a remote controller? +
It varies with company size and scope — roughly $110,000 to $180,000+, with assistant controllers lower. Individual postings list compensation where the employer provides it.
How is a controller different from a CFO? +
A controller runs accounting and financial reporting, while a CFO owns the company's overall financial strategy, forecasting, and fundraising. The CFO page covers those roles.
