Description:

We are partnering with a confidential, private-equity-backed organization to recruit a Vice President of Finance to lead FP&A and drive financial transformation during a period of accelerated organic growth.

This is a hands-on, player-coach role for a finance leader who thrives in fast-moving environments, owns outcomes end-to-end, and brings discipline, urgency, and clarity to complex businesses. The VP of Finance will serve as a trusted partner to the CFO and executive leadership, delivering forward-looking insights that directly shape strategy and execution.

Why This Role

  • Transformation mandate: Rebuild and elevate FP&A, forecasting, and reporting capabilities
  • Momentum: Strong sales performance, aggressive growth targets, and improving operating leverage
  • Financial backing: Well-capitalized PE sponsor with a long-term value-creation mindset
  • Real impact: Focus on the 5 most critical initiatives-not bureaucracy or perfectionism
Key Responsibilities
  • Own FP&A delivery: timely, accurate, and forward-looking reporting, forecasts, and insights
  • Lead annual budgeting, rolling forecasts, and cash flow visibility with speed and discipline
  • Deliver executive-ready analysis, MD&A, and decision support for leadership, Board, and investors
  • Strengthen forecasting rigor while avoiding unnecessary complexity or "false precision"
  • Drive working capital optimization, covenant compliance, and cash flow discipline
  • Partner cross-functionally to align financial plans with operational priorities
  • Lead financial systems, data, and reporting improvements to support scalability
  • Build and lead a high-output FP&A team with clear expectations, accountability, and urgency
Leadership Profile
  • Player-coach mindset: Will dive into details to execute while elevating the team
  • Ownership mentality: No surprises, no excuses-results matter
  • Decisive and direct: Sets clear standards and follows through
  • Strategic but practical: Knows where precision matters and where speed wins
Qualifications
  • 10+ years of progressive finance experience; 5+ years in senior finance leadership
  • Proven success in PE-backed, high-growth environments (MSP, SaaS, or recurring revenue preferred)
  • Deep expertise in FP&A, cash flow management, and financial transformation
  • Track record of improving forecasting, reporting, and data reliability
  • ERP/PSA experience strongly preferred (e.g., Sage Intacct, ConnectWise or similar)
  • CPA, CMA, or MBA a plus
