Finance Director

$140k - $160k

CFS

Few municipal finance opportunities offer this level of visibility and community impact. As Finance Director, you'll help shape the financial future of a growing city while partnering directly with elected officials, department leaders, and community stakeholders on key development initiatives.

Finance Director
Salary: $140,000 - $160,000
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Play a key leadership role in a rapidly growing community experiencing significant investment, development, and downtown revitalization.
  • Serve as a strategic advisor to leadership on financial planning and fiscal policy.
  • Influence major community initiatives, including economic development projects, infrastructure investments, and public financing strategies.
  • Lead an established and experienced finance team with deep institutional knowledge.
  • Join an organization where strategic financial leadership is valued and has a seat at the table.
Key Responsibilities For The Finance Director
  • Oversee the annual budgeting process and long-range financial planning.
  • Manage TIF financing, interfund financing, and other municipal funding initiatives.
  • Provide financial recommendations regarding the city's fiscal health and strategic priorities.
  • Partner with the department leaders on financial decision-making.
  • Lead and develop the finance department while overseeing daily operations.
Qualifications For The Finance Director
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
  • 5+ years of government finance experience at the municipal, county, or state level.
  • Prior leadership or supervisory experience.
  • CPA and/or Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) credentials preferred.
