30-Day Checklist for New Controllers
Your checklist for the first 30-days in your new Controller role. Start with order to cash, familiarize yourself with your team's tech stack, and more.
The interviews have ended, and you're now the newly-minted Controller at your company. Congratulations! Now comes the hard part.
You must score quick wins while learning the nuances of your position. You must also make a good impression so that executive leadership views you as a strategic asset, not someone who merely crunches numbers.

We've compiled everything you need to act on in your first 30-days to get a running start, including:
- Connecting with the right internal stakeholders
- Leveraging your job description and interview process
- Starting with understanding your company's order to cash process
- Benchmarking existing monthly close processes
