Full time
The Director – Business Unit (P&L) Accounting is a newly created senior leadership role within Kelly Services' Controllership organization, reporting directly to the Chief Accounting Officer. This role owns full P&L accountability for Kelly's Business Unit segments — SETT (Science, Engineering, Technology, and Telecom), ETM (Enterprise Talent Managed), and EDU (Education) — including revenue, cost of services (COS), accounts receivable accounting oversight, and BU-specific SG&A (facilities, travel, etc).
The ideal candidate brings deep revenue accounting expertise across services businesses (staffing, professional services, managed services, consulting, etc.), demonstrated ability to build a new team from adjacent legacy organizations, strong partnership skills with Finance Business Partners and operations leadership, and experience owning full P&L accountability for large, complex service-line segments.
Our Director – Business Unit (P&L) Accounting is accountable for:

- Provide segment-level accounting judgment on complex revenue transactions, coordinating with Technical Accounting & External Reporting on ASC 606 questions and any new-standard implications.
3. BU-Specific SG&A Ownership
- Own BU-specific SG&A — facilities, travel, BU-level accruals attributable to the segment — for each business unit. Books JEs for these BU-attributable SG&A items. Corporate SG&A (facilities/marketing/legal/technology at the corporate level) is owned by the Operational Accounting team.
- Provide segment-level SG&A reporting and BPR support, integrated with segment P&L reporting.
- Coordinate with Corporate Consolidations & Controls on the cost-center architecture that supports the BU-vs-corporate SG&A split.
4. Team Build-Out, Stand-Up, and Transformation
- Stand up the BU (P&L) Accounting function from staff currently sitting within ETM Finance and SETT Finance (accounting-work portion), building a new integrated team from adjacent legacy organizations.
- Define role boundaries with Finance Business Partners (who remain in the ETM/SETT Finance FP&A/business-partner structure) to ensure clean scope and no duplicate work.
- Establish segment-level playbooks, close calendars, and reconciliation frameworks that align with the enterprise close set by Corporate Consolidations & Controls and the Operations Accounting team.
- Drive AI and automation adoption within the BU (P&L) function — revenue automation, unbilled AR forecasting, margin-anomaly detection, accrual estimation.
