About Wantable

At Wantable, we’re redefining the way people discover and express their personal style. As a leading eCommerce apparel brand, we bring inspiration, creativity, and confidence to our customers through personalized shopping experiences. The Company offers a diversified product line, including internally developed brands and merchandise sourced from external vendors. We're a passionate and committed team — and we're looking for a talented Controller to help shape the financial foundation that powers our growth.

The Role

We’re looking for a hands-on, detail-oriented, and forward-thinking Controller to lead our accounting and financial operations. This role goes beyond managing numbers — it’s about helping to drive strategy, ensuring financial integrity, and empowering our team to make smart, data-informed decisions. Our ideal candidate is personable and approachable, contributing to a supportive and cooperative work environment.

As Controller, you’ll oversee day-to-day accounting operations, lead the monthly close and financial reporting process, coordinate budgeting and forecasting efforts across departments, and serve as a key business partner to leadership. You’ll also collaborate with our fractional CFO and external accounting firm to manage our annual financial audit and ensure compliance with GAAP.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the Finance Team: Manage, mentor, and develop a talented finance team across multiple locations.
• Manage Accounting Operations: Oversee general ledger activity and ensure timely, accurate monthly, quarterly, and year-end closes.
• Drive Financial Forecasting: Prepare, analyze, and present reports that forecast company performance, track cash flow, and support strategic decision-making.
• Own the Budget Process: Partner with department leaders to create, monitor, and enforce budgets — ensuring alignment with company goals.
• Strengthen Controls & Compliance : Establish and maintain strong internal controls, accounting procedures, and financial reporting processes in compliance with GAAP.
• Coordinate Audit & Tax Compliance: Work closely with our fractional CFO and outside accounting firm to manage the annual financial audit and oversee tax compliance, including state sales tax reporting.
• Partner with Leadership: Collaborate with the President, COO and CFO to provide actionable insights and financial recommendations that help drive growth and efficiency.
• Champion Efficiency: Continuously seek opportunities to streamline processes and enhance financial systems and tools.
• Lead with a can-do attitude: Demonstrate an upbeat mindset and a proactive, solution-oriented approach.

What You Bring

• Proven success as a Controller or senior accounting leader in an eCommerce, retail, manufacturing or similar environment.
• Strong analytical, communication, and leadership skills with a collaborative, roll-up-your-sleeves mindset.
• Hands-on experience with budgeting, forecasting, and cost accounting.
• Familiarity with GAAP compliance, financial reporting, and annual audit preparation.
• Proficiency in, Microsoft Office, and Google Workspace; experience with QuickBooks and ERP systems a plus.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-changing, entrepreneurial environment.

Why Wantable?

• Be part of a dynamic, fast-growing company that has innovation and creativity embedded in its DNA.
• A chance to shape our customers’ journey and leave a lasting impact on their self-confidence, one order at a time.
• Join a collaborative environment where your ideas matter, your efforts are rewarded and you can see results in real time.

Wantable team members enjoy free food, coffee, and drinks in our HQ's beautiful Wantable Cafe. We have a laid-back, casual environment in a state-of-the-art HQ in Walkers Point.

We offer flexible schedules, paid parental leave (mothers AND fathers), and a private room for nursing mothers.

Even more exciting: paid vacation and seven paid holidays per year, plus a 50% discount on all merchandise. You’ll be eligible for the discount on your first day.

Important, but maybe less thrilling: we have ample parking, we offer medical (traditional and high deductible), dental, and vision insurance, as well as a 401K (both pre-tax and Roth options).
