Our client is seeking a confident, results-driven CFO ready to make an impact by shaping the future of the accounting and finance function . This individual will oversee core accounting, financial planning and analysis, tax planning, and risk management processes while leading a small accounting team with deep institutional knowledge. This is not a "sit back and watch" role—you’ll roll up your sleeves, dive into the details, and truly immerse yourself in understanding this highly complex business with many interesting nuances. If you’re curious and love to problem-solve, this is your chance to make a meaningful difference and step into a role where you will never stop learning.

• You’ll have the freedom to streamline existing processes, introduce new accounting systems, and identify opportunities for improvement as the company evolves. We’re looking for someone with a bold perspective who can balance being a change-maker while ensuring essential work gets done. If you thrive on turning challenges into opportunities, this is the perfect chance to step in and be the hero.

• Take ownership for a steady array of ad hoc projects tied to new business acquisition and start-up, complex tax research projects, legal entity formation and own this diversified business’ cash management strategy.

• As CFO, you’ll also be a bridge between the finance team and external partners. Strong communication skills are crucial, as you’ll distill complex financial information into clear, actionable insights for the leadership team. Collaboration with general counsel, attorneys, and external CPAs will be key as you work with them to navigate a constant stream of complicated projects.

• This is more than a technical role—it’s about building a strong culture within the accounting team. You’ll have the chance to elevate the team from good to great by fostering trust, inspiring followership, and leading by example. We’re looking for someone pragmatic and decisive, someone who isn’t afraid to say, “Let’s try this approach, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll take responsibility.”

This position offers a highly competitive compensation package, including a strong base salary, a very generous bonus (over 50% target), and the chance to work for a company committed to making significant steps forward. Excellent role for a seasoned CFO or a strong Controller who is destined to be a CFO some day to step up.
