Accounting Business Partner
Valsoft Corporation
Lighthouse Software Group (a Valsoft portfolio group) is looking for a Accounting Business Partner to support financial reporting, analysis, and controls across our portfolio of software businesses. This role works closely with portfolio company finance teams, legal, and group leadership — spanning day-to-day reporting as well as finance integration work for newly acquired businesses. The role will report directly to the Financial Controller.
- Prepare and coordinate Monthly Business Reviews across multiple portfolio companies, consolidating financial results and commentary for leadership.
- Track and analyze revenue trends, including new customer revenue and churn, across portfolio businesses.
- Support the annual budgeting and periodic forecasting processes across portfolio companies, reviewing submissions, challenging assumptions, and consolidating results for group leadership.
- Monitor actual performance against budget and forecast, analyze key variances, and work with business unit finance teams to identify risks, opportunities, and corrective actions.
- Oversee a small team responsible for bookkeeping and accounting activities across portfolio companies, reviewing work products for accuracy and completeness.
- Review and approve journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules prepared by accounting staff.
- Perform accounting analysis for complex transactions and non-routine matters, providing guidance on appropriate accounting treatment and financial reporting implications.
- Support external audit requests (e.g., responding to auditor questionnaires on revenue recognition and other technical matters) and liaise with external auditors as needed.
- Support pre- and post-acquisition functions, including financial integration, purchase accounting and related tasks.
- Support treasury management activities across the portfolio, including cash flow monitoring, liquidity planning, intercompany funding, and cash repatriation initiatives to ensure businesses maintain appropriate working capital and liquidity levels.
- Assist with the development and execution of group treasury processes, including cash forecasting, banking administration, payment controls, and relationships with financial institutions.
- Monitor portfolio company cash positions and forecasted cash requirements, identifying funding needs, excess cash opportunities, and potential liquidity risks, while providing recommendations to group leadership.
- Act as the finance point of contact for portfolio company controllers and finance staff, chasing data, resolving discrepancies, and ensuring group reporting deadlines are met.
- Maintain and streamline data collection templates/processes used across the portfolio.
