Director of Finance

Position Overview The Director of Finance is a key member of Binswanger Glass’s finance leadership team, responsible for overseeing the company’s financial planning and analysis, reporting, budgeting, and compliance functions. This role serves as a strategic partner to the CFO, CEO, and business unit leaders — translating financial data into actionable insights that drive operational performance and long‑term growth. The Director leads a high‑performing finance team, steers the annual planning process, and ensures the integrity and accuracy of all financial reporting and controls across the organization. This is a critical role in the evolution of the business. Success in this seat will be defined as much by attitude as by technical pedigree — we are looking for a finance “athlete”: a proactive, self‑motivated, and intellectually curious professional who is hungry to learn, dig into the data, and drive the business forward. Key Responsibilities Lead the financial planning and analysis (FP&A) function, delivering strategic insights, forecasts, and recommendations to senior leadership and the executive team. Lead and support the annual budgeting process end‑to‑end, partnering with business unit leaders to align departmental plans with corporate financial objectives. Build and maintain a rolling 12‑month three‑statement financial model (income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow) to support forecasting, planning, and lender/sponsor reporting. Own detailed 13‑week cash flow forecasting, partnering with the CFO on liquidity planning and working capital management. Manage reporting and compliance for the company’s ABL revolving credit facility, including borrowing base support and lender deliverables. Analyze project‑level performance across the business — including project margins, labor productivity, and contract profitability — to identify performance gaps and drive corrective action. Apply knowledge of contract‑based businesses and percentage‑of‑completion (POC) accounting to ensure accurate revenue recognition, margin reporting, and project forecasting. Develop and maintain long‑range financial projections and scenario models to support strategic planning and capital allocation decisions. Perform variance analysis against budget and forecast, identifying performance gaps and recommending corrective actions to leadership. Ensure timely and accurate preparation of financial statements, management reports, and executive presentations in accordance with GAAP. Produce and manage Board of Directors materials and deliver regular financial presentations to executive leadership and the private equity sponsor. Drive operational performance analysis across departments and a multi‑site branch network, developing and monitoring KPIs that link financial results to business outcomes. Lead financial modeling for new business initiatives, investment opportunities, M&A activity, and capital projects. Oversee cash flow management and treasury operations to ensure adequate liquidity for business operations and growth initiatives. Identify, assess, and mitigate financial risks including market exposure, operational inefficiencies, and compliance vulnerabilities. Manage capital expenditure planning, working capital optimization, and financing strategy in coordination with the CFO. Build, lead, and develop the finance team — establishing a high‑performance culture and creating professional growth opportunities for team members. Act as a strategic advisor to the CFO, CEO, and department heads, providing financial perspective on business decisions and initiatives. Collaborate cross‑functionally with operations, HR, sales, and IT to ensure financial alignment with business objectives. Communicate financial performance, strategy, and risks effectively to non‑financial stakeholders across the organization. Serve as a liaison to external financial partners including banks, the private equity sponsor, investors, and auditors.
