About You

You have the capacity to achieve much more than is being asked of you. You are a natural leader who has mastered your craft as a financial executive. You're passionate about helping companies grow and create a legacy.

You are well organized and incredibly comfortable in the role of financial leadership. You think strategically and love pushing companies (and people) to new heights. You enjoy rolling up your sleeves and seeing how you can make a real impact on a company and the lives within that company.

The Role

You will take leadership of a portfolio of growth-minded clients and be their CFO. You will help them define success, create the path there, and coach them along the way. Drawing upon your extensive background in accounting & finance you'll help provide valuable insights into their business's performance and how to impact their bottom and topline growth. You will be a key part of the company's leadership team, helping them drive towards their goals.

• Staying out of the detailed weeds of accounting, and pushing the needle on large strategic and impactful decisions
• Being assertive, having hard conversations with clients and challenging assumptions
