Director of Finance

Elite Placement Group, LLC
Norwalk, CT Full Time
POSTED ON 4/23/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/22/2026

Director of Finance | Private Wealth Management Firm\


We’re looking for a high-impact finance leader who can operate at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and executive decision-making inside a sophisticated wealth management environment.

This isn’t a “close the books and move on” role. This is the person who helps steer the business.


Why This Role Stands Out

You’ll be embedded directly with executive leadership and business heads, shaping how the firm thinks about growth, profitability, and long-term planning. If you like turning messy financial data into clear decisions that actually move the business, this is your lane.


What You’ll Own

  • Annual budgeting multi-year strategic planning
  • Rolling forecasts tied to AUM, market performance, and advisor productivity
  • Revenue modeling across fee-based and recurring income streams
  • Executive board-level reporting packages
  • Financial integrity in partnership with accounting teams
  • Cross-functional alignment between finance and business units
  • Building stronger discipline around analytics and performance visibility


What They’re Looking For

  • 8–10 years in finance, with meaningful time in wealth or asset management
  • Strong exposure to AUM-driven revenue models and fee-based businesses
  • Experience building executive-level reporting for high-net-worth / private client environments
  • Confident communicator who can sit in a boardroom without flinching
  • Strong grounding in forecasting, FP&A, and strategic finance
  • Comfortable in complex, regulated financial environments
  • CPA or MBA preferred, but not a dealbreaker if experience is strong


This is a role for someone who doesn’t just report numbers—they explain what’s about to happen next and why.


If you want to be the financial backbone of a growing, sophisticated investment platform, this is worth a serious look.
