Full Job Description

**The Role** RDI is hiring a Senior Controller to own the finance function end to end. You will lead our monthly close, GAAP financial statements, ASC 606 revenue recognition, the billing tracker, lender reporting, and the forward forecast model. You will also oversee the outsourced accounting team that supports our day-to-day financials, AP, and AR. You work in person at our Van Nuys office. This is a role with real ownership at a thirty-person, PE-backed specialty CRO. The function has good bones, an engaged CEO, and an outsourced partner already handling the day-to-day. We are looking for someone to step in and elevate the work. **The Work** The monthly close is the foundation. Revenue is recognized on a cost-based input method under ASC 606 — Cumulative Actuals ÷ EAC × TCV, study by study — and getting it right matters to the board, the lender, and the operating team. The billing tracker is how we connect work performed to invoices issued, and we want someone who will own it, not inherit it. You will oversee our outsourced accounting partner, who handles the bookkeeping, AP processing, and AR. The relationship works, and your job is to direct it, hold it to a standard, and decide what to keep outsourced versus bring in house as we grow. You will own monthly borrowing-base reporting, covenant compliance with our lender, and the forecast model we share with the board each quarter and rely on between meetings. **Why Join** Because you want to own a finance function rather than support one. Because you want to work alongside a CEO who understands the numbers and will engage with your work seriously. Because the scope of what one person in this seat can do is changing, and you would rather be at a company that has already noticed. This role is on-site in Van Nuys, five days a week. We have built the culture around being in the same room, and that is not something we plan to change. **About RDI** **At RDI Trials, we're building a different kind of CRO.** We are an IVD
