Vice President of Finance























Shelton, CT - Hybrid
$200k+ depending on experience



Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Partner directly with the CFO on strategy, planning, and financial decision-making at a rapidly scaling, PE-backed company

  • Join a company ranked #2 among energy companies on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies

  • Gain exposure to lenders, board members, and ownership through executive-level reporting and presentations

  • Equity through a Management Incentive Program — real upside tied to company growth

  • Lead and develop your own finance team, shaping how the function runs

  • Play a hands-on role across FP&A, treasury, cash management, and systems — broad scope, not a narrow lane

  • Join a mission-driven company making a measurable impact on climate change and sustainability

  • Comprehensive benefits including health, dental, vision, and 401(k)


Key Responsibilities for the Vice President of Finance:



  • Lead annual budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis under the CFO's direction

  • Prepare monthly and quarterly financial reporting packages and KPI dashboards for leadership

  • Oversee cash flow forecasting, working capital analysis, and treasury/debt processes

  • Partner with accounting leadership to support accurate month-end close and reporting

  • Serve as a finance partner to department heads, providing analysis and decision support

  • Manage and develop finance team members


Qualifications for the Vice President of Finance:



  • Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, or related field required; MBA, CPA, or CMA preferred

  • 8+ years of progressive finance, FP&A, accounting, or corporate finance experience

  • Experience in a private, mid-sized, or operating company environment; leveraged business experience preferred

  • Strong ERP/accounting systems experience and advanced Excel or financial planning tool skills
