I have to agree that Control is either the Chairman or Counselor. They both have the highest likely hood of being it given the current evidence:

1. Control somehow knew about the mysterious crate on the crashed UNSC spacecraft, suggesting some sort of connections to the faction.

2. Control has a lot of connections and power, as it can employee multiple mercenaries and give them advance weaponry.

3. As ModernWW2 pointed out, Control refers to the enhancements as "our property", implying it has some sort of ownership over them.

4. As nightfire pointed out, Control knows the BGC are mediocre soldiers somehow, so it have to be someone that knows them (at least to a degree) and their adventures.

5. Lastly, the Chairman and Counselors status after the Recollections is still unknown, leaving the possibility they are still active and could have become Control.
