Regional Financial Controller, Trilogy (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

Ready to revolutionize education finance instead of just managing it? At Trilogy, we're not looking for someone to maintain the status quo—we need an architect who can build the future.

Our portfolio of groundbreaking education ventures—spanning K-12 schools to innovative EdTech platforms—demands a financial infrastructure as forward-thinking as our educational models. We don't need traditional controllers; we need visionaries who can create systems that scale exponentially.

This role isn't about delegating tasks—it's about engineering elegant solutions. You'll pioneer AI-native financial architecture that eliminates bureaucracy while maintaining impeccable standards. From tuition management to compliance, you'll replace complexity with clarity through strategic decision documentation and ruthless simplification.

Working alongside our senior leadership team, you'll shape the financial backbone of educational innovations that will transform learning for millions. Your systems won't just support our growth—they'll accelerate it.

Join us to build the financial foundation that will power education's next revolution.

What You Will Be Doing

• Pioneering an AI-powered financial ecosystem that propels our education ventures to new heights
• Crafting strategic Design Decisions that transform complex financial processes into streamlined, scalable workflows
• Providing expert written feedback on Deep Dives and Improvement Plans that elevates both human and AI performance
• Engaging in strategic discussions that shape our approach to budgeting, expansion, vendor relationships, and regulatory compliance
• Orchestrating seamless financial operations across tuition collection, audit preparation, and tax compliance at scale
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Overseeing a bloated finance department—we believe in systems over headcount
• Getting bogged down in routine month-end processes or transaction approvals
• Settling for off-the-shelf ERP solutions without customization
• Creating hierarchies of task delegation—this role demands hands-on leadership
• Operating within comfortable, predictable parameters—we're building and scaling at lightning speed
