What is a Financial Controller?

A financial controller serves as the head of the accounting and finance departments, managing the accounts payable and receivable teams. The controller will generally answer directly to the CFO, serving as their right hand; however, in companies that do not have a CFO, the controller will fulfill many of the CFO's responsibilities.

A qualified controller usually holds a bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or business administration, as well as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or Certified Management Accountant (CMA) certification. 

Financial controllers are responsible for overseeing the day-to-day transactions of an accounting and finance department. A controller’s responsibilities fall into four basic categories: management, reporting, transactions, and compliance.

What do Financial Controllers Do in Business?

Management

A controller is responsible for managing several facets of the accounting and finance divisions of a company including the accounting and finance departments of any subsidiaries the company owns.

Reporting

Financial statements, annual reports, bank reconciliation statements, budgets, budget-to-actuals and other financial reporting are all overseen by the controller. These reports are done on behalf of the CFO.

Transactions

A company’s controller oversees their accounts payable and accounts receivable departments. Generally, they also directly oversee the payroll process. They maintain the company’s general ledger, filing system, and control system.
