This Director of Accounting role sits at the center of a mission-driven organization where financial leadership directly enables operational stability, long-term stewardship, and service impact. You won’t just oversee accounting—you’ll shape how resources are managed, protected, and deployed across multiple entities.
Our client operates in a complex environment spanning nonprofit, healthcare, and religious organizations. If you are a finance leader who brings both technical rigor and a values-driven leadership style—and you’re motivated by purpose as much as performance—this role offers meaningful influence.
This organization is a long-established, faith-based nonprofit overseeing multiple corporations and apostolic centers. Leadership values humility, accountability, and individuals who show up fully—professionally and personally—in how they lead and collaborate.
In this role, you will…
- Lead financial operations across multiple entities, ensuring accuracy, transparency, and alignment with organizational mission
- Direct budgeting, forecasting, and long-range financial planning in partnership with operational and ministry leaders
- Oversee full-cycle accounting, including general ledger, AP/AR, payroll, and financial reporting
- Own audit processes and external auditor relationships, driving clean audits and strong internal controls
- Guide and develop the accounting team, setting expectations for ownership, follow-through, and continuous improvement
- Partner with leadership on capital planning, funding strategies, and financial decision-making across apostolic centers
- Ensure compliance with GAAP, nonprofit regulations, and healthcare reporting requirements (including cost reports and regulatory filings)
What we’re looking for
- Strong command of GAAP and fund accounting (restricted vs. unrestricted funds)
- Experience overseeing audits, financial reporting, and internal controls
- Background managing accounting teams and driving accountability across functions
- Exposure to healthcare financial reporting or similarly regulated environments
- Bachelor’s degree in Finance or Accounting, CPA preferred
- 10+ years of progressive finance leadership experience, ideally in nonprofit or multi-entity environments
If you’re a finance leader who combines technical depth with humility, ownership, and purpose—we welcome a confidential conversation to explore alignment.
