What are the responsibilities and job description for the Finance Director position at Risk Management Foundation?
FINANCE DIRECTOR (1099) – Part-time
$50,000 annual retainer | 2–3 days/week; Additional consulting fees for acquisitions & loan originations
Role Summary
The Finance Director provides financial strategic leadership, oversight, and analysis. Because all accounting is outsourced, this role focuses on review, judgment, compliance, cash flow, budgeting, and committee support, not transactional work. The Finance Director ensures outsourced accounting receives clean inputs and that leadership receives accurate, timely financial information. The ideal candidate combines a strong non-profit financial background with real estate finance experience.
This engagement is a natural fit for a seasoned finance professional who is stepping back from full-time work and wants to keep doing what they do best — on a flexible, part-time basis, for an organization where their judgment and experience will carry real weight.
