Interim Chief Financial Officer (Chicago)

Overview

I am working with a highly respected advisory firm that partners with middle-market companies navigating operational, financial, and strategic challenges. They are actively seeking an experienced Interim CFO to support client engagements throughout Chicago and the broader Midwest region.

This is not a traditional CFO role. The ideal candidate has deep experience leading companies through:

Responsibilities

• Turnarounds and restructurings
• Cash flow and liquidity crises
• Operational stabilization and recovery
• Stakeholder and lender communications
• Rapid assessment and execution in complex situations

Profile

The right individual is a hands-on finance leader who can quickly build credibility with ownership groups, lenders, and management teams while driving measurable results in high-pressure environments.
