About Pine Services Group 


Pine Services Group is a long-term holding company within the Evergreen Services Group family, owning and operating a portfolio of ERP VAR and technology services companies. Headquartered in the U.S., we operate in a decentralized model and are in an active period of growth — both through continued domestic acquisition and expanding our footprint internationally. We partner closely with our portfolio company (OpCo) leadership teams to drive financial discipline, operational rigor, and scalable growth. 


As our portfolio continues to grow through acquisition and geographic expansion, we are investing in the central finance infrastructure needed to support that scale.

The Director of Accounting is a key part of that foundation.

The Director of Accounting will serve as Pine Services Group's in-house technical accounting authority, responsible for designing the controls, policies, and frameworks that allow our portfolio companies to operate with financial rigor at scale. This is a newly created, highly visible role reporting directly to the CFO.
