Crown Paper Group, Inc. is a holding company established by Lindsay Goldberg, an investment firm that manages $10 billion of equity capital, to build a paper and packaging portfolio of companies. In February 2015 we bought Port Townsend Holding Company, which has a paper mill in Port Townsend, Washington and Crown Packaging plant and BoxMaster packaging plant in Vancouver, BC, and Distribution Centers in Richmond and Kelowna, BC, and Calgary, AB. With our initial acquisition, the Crown Paper Group has become one of the larger independent producer of containerboard, kraft paper, unbleached kraft pulp and corrugated packaging, with roughly 600 employees and $300MM in sales.

We are continually working on acquisitions, and potentially more than triple the size of the company. Based on the actual, projected and intended growth of our company, we require a Corporate Controller. The main requirements are:

• Public Accounting Experience

• Certified Public Accountant

This position will spend roughly 50% of its time in Vancouver, BC, Port Townsend, WA and/or the US west coast; so, exact location around the Puget Sound is whatever works best, and is most effective and efficient for the right candidate. The 50% travel includes Port Townsend WA for roughly half the travel, so if you live close to Port Townsend, then the travel is really 25%. We would actually prefer that the right candidate is based within the Port Townsend commutable area, but that is not required.
