Job Description

About Commonwealth Fusion Systems:


Commonwealth Fusion Systems is on a mission to deliver the urgent transition to fusion energy.


Combining decades of research, top talent, and new technologies, we’re designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. And working with policymakers and suppliers to build the energy industry of the future.


We’re in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018, we’ve raised nearly $3 billion in capital, making us the largest and leading private fusion company in the world.


Now we’re looking for more thinkers, doers, builders, and makers to join us. People who’ll bring new perspectives, solve tough problems, and thrive as part of a team.


If that’s you and this role fits, we want to hear from you.


Join the power movement as a Corporate Controller


We are actively seeking a dynamic finance leader to join our team as the Corporate Controller. This pivotal role involves strategic and comprehensive oversight of the company’s accounting functions, including all financial transaction recording and reporting, the company’s strong controls environment, financial operations, and, overall, contributing to process improvement across the company.


In addition, the successful candidate will join the company’s leadership team, reporting to the Vice President of Finance and Accounting, on our journey from the current single location, pre-revenue stage, to an operating company with a broad range of commercial and development activities, and therefore will be looked to for a wide range of financial, process and business insight.


A strong accounting background, including a CPA certification and experience as the corporate functional leader of a dynamic, growing company is valued. Additionally, although we do not presently have plans to go public, we do expect to be doing periodic financings, so experience with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance, a successful track record with a public accounting firm and experience operating a company with SEC reporting requirements is also important.
