Chief Financial Officer (Greenville)

Ricci Law Firm is a growing personal injury firm representing injured people against insurance companies and large corporations. With approximately 200 employees across multiple North Carolina locations, we've built a firm known for aggressive advocacy and results for our clients. As we continue to scale, we're hiring a Chief Financial Officer to build and lead the finance function.

• Partner directly with firm leadership on growth strategy, profitability analysis, and major financial decisions
• Establish KPIs and dashboards that give leadership real visibility into firm performance
• Manage banking relationships, lines of credit, and case-cost funding arrangements
• Lead a finance team
• Ensure compliance with all financial regulations relevant to law firm operations in North Carolina

What you bring:

• 10+ years of progressive finance leadership experience, including CFO or Controller-level roles
• Law firm, professional services, or regulated industry finance experience is a plus, not a requirement

Why this role:

• Real influence on firm strategy
• Competitive compensation
