This is a career-defining opportunity for a finance leader who thrives in entrepreneurial environments and wants to help shape the financial infrastructure of a high-growth firm. You will lead core financial operations including P&L oversight, cashflow management, vendor coordination, and cross-departmental reporting functions.

  • Partner with the billing and revenue operations team to ensure accurate advisor compensation and client billing
  • Consolidate branch- and advisor-level P&Ls across a distributed national platform
  • Oversee vendor relationships, contract optimization, and company-wide bill pay
  • Assist executive leadership with financial modeling, strategic planning, and private equity readiness
  • Supervise and mentor finance staff as necessary


Qualifications

  • Minimum 7–10 years of finance/accounting experience, ideally in wealth management, RIA platforms, or multi-entity environments
  • Proven success in a Controller, Director of Finance, or VP Finance capacity
  • Deep technical knowledge of accounting principles and operational finance functions
  • Confident, hands-on leader capable of both strategy and detailed execution
  • Strong systems orientation and ability to build scalable workflows
  • CPA or CFA strongly preferred, but not required


What We Offer

  • A high-impact role within a firm experiencing meaningful growth and structural evolution
  • Full benefits including health, dental, vision, and retirement
  • The opportunity to shape the next chapter of an ambitious financial firm
  • A professional culture that values precision, autonomy, and strategic contribution
