About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to serve as the senior financial executive and enterprise steward. The CFO will be responsible for the full scope of financial operations, including accounting, FP&A, treasury management, and financial reporting. This role demands a leader with a clear understanding of nonprofit structures and compliance, particularly in a regulated higher education and workforce-focused environment. The successful candidate will lead the development and execution of financial plans, ensure adherence to regulatory requirements, and provide strategic financial leadership to support the organization's growth and sustainability. Candidates for the CFO position at the company should have a minimum of 15 years' of senior financial leadership experience, with a preference for those holding an MBA, CPA, or equivalent. The role requires a seasoned executive with a track record in financial systems transformation, organizational scaling, and a balance of financial stewardship with enterprise growth. The CFO will also be expected to lead and structure the finance organization, partner with the executive team on financial matters, and contribute to strategic discussions. Success in this role will be measured by the CFO's ability to instill strong financial governance, build a stable and scalable finance organization, and establish trusted partnerships with the CEO and the board.
