  • Ensure financial reporting accurately reflects tax implications and aligns with strategic objectives
  • Lead proactive and compliant tax strategy in coordination with external advisors
  • Build scalable financial infrastructure and eliminate key-person dependencies across financial operations
  • Oversee remediation of legacy accounting issues and implement best-in-class reporting systems
  • Partner with executive leadership on capital strategy, cost of capital optimization, and long-term growth planning
  • Manage external CPA firms and advisors, ensuring performance, accountability, and alignment
  • Establish transparent, standardized processes to ensure accessibility and integrity of financial data across the organization
  • Drive structure, discipline, and operational consistency across the finance function
Required Qualifications
  • Proven experience as a CFO or senior finance leader within financial services, alternative lending, specialty finance, or a similar high-velocity capital environment
  • Demonstrated ability to prepare financials and reporting for institutional investors
  • Strong expertise in tax implications as they relate to financial reporting and strategy
  • Track record of building and scaling financial infrastructure within a growing organization
  • High level of technical proficiency and experience modernizing financial systems
  • Experience leading financial cleanup initiatives and implementing structured processes
  • Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
Preferred Qualifications
  • CPA designation
  • Experience in Merchant Cash Advance (MCA), factoring, or comparable capital-intensive lending models
  • Familiarity with portfolio modeling and structured finance
  • Experience working within a close-knit, high-accountability team environment
Candidate Profile
  • Demonstrates strong leadership presence and sound judgment
  • High level of ownership and accountability
  • Hands-on operator with a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset
  • Technologically adept and forward-thinking
  • Highly organized, focused, and dependable
