Controller Jobs in Iowa

A Controller in the banking industry is responsible for managing all the financial operations of the bank. They oversee the production of periodic financial reports, maintain an adequate system of accounting records, and design a comprehensive set of controls and budgets to mitigate risk, enhance the accuracy of the bank's reported financial results, and ensure that reported results comply with generally accepted accounting principles or international financial reporting standards. They also have a strategic role in forecasting and planning the bank's financial future.

The Controller role requires a mix of skills, including leadership, strategic planning, business acumen, and excellent communication skills. They need to have strong problem-solving abilities, keen attention to detail, and be well-versed in financial management software. A bachelor's degree in finance or accounting is often required, and a master's degree or certifications such as Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or Certified Management Accountant (CMA) are typically preferred. Prior to becoming a Controller, a person may have roles such as Senior Accountant, Accounting Manager, or Chief Financial Officer.
