About the Role
SharkNinja doesn't do ordinary — and neither does this role. As Finance Director, Assistant Controller EMEA, you'll be the technical and operational backbone of financial controllership across the region, reporting to the Senior Finance Director EMEA. This isn't a maintenance job. You'll be driving material weakness remediation, hardening the SOX control environment, and holding the line on US GAAP compliance — all while supporting one of the fastest-scaling consumer products companies on the planet.
You'll need to move fast, think clearly under pressure, and pivot without losing grip on what matters: accurate numbers, clean controls, and a finance team that operates at the pace of the business.
What You'll Own
US GAAP & Technical Accounting
Be the region's authority on US GAAP. When the business has a question on revenue recognition, inventory valuation, OPEX classification, or lease accounting — you have the answer.
Ensure all EMEA entities maintain records in compliance with US GAAP, IFRS, and applicable local GAAP, with no ambiguity on policy application.
Flag and escalate emerging technical accounting issues before they become audit findings.
Controls, SOX & Remediation
Lead end-to-end SOX compliance across EMEA legal entities — design, monitoring, testing, and remediation. If a control gap exists, you find it and fix it.
Drive active remediation of identified control deficiencies, including material weaknesses, with clear action plans, accountable owners, and deadlines that stick.
Own balance sheet integrity across all EMEA entities — reviews, reconciliations, and sign-off are yours.
Partner with internal and external auditors as a peer, not a passenger — anticipate issues, resolve them fast, and document everything to standard.
Financial Reporting
Deliver timely, accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual close cycles across all EMEA legal entities — with insightful commentary that tells the story behind the numbers, not just the numbers.
Lead Financial Controller review and oversight across the EMEA entity portfolio.
Leadership & Transformation
Lead a team of ~20 across Inventory and OPEX — set the standard, develop the talent, and build a team that's outrageously extraordinary in how they show up every day.
Drive process standardization, automation, and scalability initiatives that match SharkNinja's&nbs
