About the Job

Ahria Consulting is pleased to partner with Peterboro Matboards in the search for their next Controller.

About Peterboro Matboards

Peterboro Matboards is a family-owned and operated leader in the custom framing industry, with over 125 years of history and a reputation for archival-grade matting, innovation, and exceptional customer service. The business remains committed to creating innovative products that enhance works of art rather than compete with them.

Peterboro relies on the quality and performance of their highly skilled staff members to facilitate growth and development within their line of products. Their commitment to quality products, and skilled staff are critical to making the company, and its products, competitive in a demanding global market.

Purpose of the Role

  • Provide leadership across all financial functions, including financial reporting, budgeting, internal controls, and compliance.
  • Support organizational decision-making by delivering clear, actionable financial insights to senior leadership and the Board.
  • Strengthen financial operations and position the business for continued growth and scalability.
  • Act as a key member of the senior leadership team, contributing to both operational and strategic initiatives across the organization.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Leadership: Lead and oversee all financial operations, including reporting, forecasting, and budgeting, ensuring alignment with organizational objectives.

Financial Management: Manage financial reporting processes, internal controls, and compliance requirements to support accurate and timely decision-making.

Strategic Partnership: Partner closely with the CEO and Finance Committee to provide meaningful financial insights that inform strategic and operational decisions.

Business Insight: Translate complex financial data into clear, practical guidance for non-financial leaders across the organization.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work collaboratively across departments to support operational efficiency, growth initiatives, and organizational priorities.

Continuous Improvement: Drive process improvements and strengthen financial systems to support a growing and evolving organization.

What You Bring

  • 5–7 years of progressive experience in accounting or finance, ideally within manufacturing or small-to-mid-sized organizations.
  • Demonstrated experience providing financial leadership and partnering with senior leaders.
  • Strong financial reporting, compliance, and regulatory knowledge.
  • Proven ability to act as a trusted advisor, effectively communicating financial insights to diverse stakeholders.

Who You Are

  • A collaborative, team-oriented leader who thrives in a small, fast-paced organization with evolving priorities.
  • An effective communicator with strong emotional intelligence, listening skills, and the ability to influence decision-making.
  • Detail-oriented while able to manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively.
  • A practical, solutions-focused professional with a “gets things done” mindset.
  • A respectful, approachable leader who aligns with a close-knit, values-driven culture.

Why Join Peterboro Matboards?

  • Competitive compensation package, including $95,000 - $125,000 annually plus bonus, pension, and benefits.
  • An engaging work environment with flexibility and opportunities to build strong internal relationships.
  • A collaborative, family-owned organization where your contributions directly impact business success.
  • Opportunity to play a key role in a growing organization with a strong legacy and commitment to innovation.
