What are the responsibilities and job description for the Vice President Finance position at Goldenrod Companies?
Vice President of Finance
Omaha, NE
Goldenrod is a growing commercial real estate and family office enterprise focused on development, acquisitions, construction, asset management, and investment portfolio oversight. We are seeking a Vice President of Finance to join our family office team and lead financial planning, forecasting, and analysis across our portfolio companies, including construction businesses.
This is a strategic FP&A role—not a transactional accounting role. Controllers own the books and monthly close; this person will use their reporting to provide forward-looking budgets, forecasts, cash-flow visibility, variance analysis, and decision support to the CFO, CIO, CEO/Chairman, and portfolio company Presidents.
Responsibilities
- Own annual budgets, rolling forecasts, and variance analysis across portfolio companies.
- Partner with portfolio company Presidents to translate operating and project data into meaningful financial insight and recommendations.
- Maintain and improve financial models for operating performance, project profitability, growth initiatives, capital planning, and investment scenarios.
- Build KPI dashboards and reporting that provide leadership with a clear view of performance, risks, and opportunities.
- Own enterprise-wide cash-flow forecasting and liquidity planning; partner with Controllers to ensure data is accurate and timely.
- Review financial statements and management reporting prepared by Controllers for accuracy, consistency, and GAAP alignment.
- Identify financial and operational risks early and escalate concerns to the CFO and CIO.
- Support strategic planning, M&A analysis and due diligence, post-close tracking, and other executive-level financial projects.
Qualifications
- 7 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, strategic finance, or a similar role.
- Strong experience with budgeting, forecasting, cash-flow planning, variance analysis, and financial modeling.
- Working knowledge of GAAP and the ability to review and challenge accounting reporting.
- Experience partnering with Controllers, accounting teams, operations leaders, and senior executives.
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field; MBA or CPA is a plus.
- Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills.
- Construction, real estate, development, or project-based financial analysis experience strongly preferred.
Why Goldenrod
This is an opportunity to have a real seat at the table within an entrepreneurial, growth-oriented organization. You will work directly with executive leadership and portfolio company Presidents while helping shape the financial planning, forecasting, and performance-management processes that support Goldenrod’s continued growth.
