Chief Financial Officer

We are partnering with a rapidly growing, private equity-backed security services platform generating approximately $200M in revenue, with operations spanning electronic surveillance, alarm monitoring, and manned guarding services across the United States. The company operates a bi-coastal footprint, with a strong presence in Florida and California, and serves a diverse customer base across 46 states.

Following a recent acquisition and accelerated organic growth, the business is anticipated to double its revenue in the next year, positioning the company for substantial scale. As a result, the organization must evolve from a collection of strong but disparate businesses into a fully integrated, scalable platform.

The organization is at a critical stage where financial infrastructure, reporting, and team capabilities must evolve to support scale.
