About the Role
The Company is in search of a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to take on a pivotal leadership role within the firm and its portfolio. The successful candidate will be responsible for all firm-level financial operations, including finance, accounting, reporting, and compliance activities. This role demands a strategic partner who can provide financial insights on performance, capital structure, and portfolio oversight, and who is adept at supporting acquisitions, integrations, refinancings, and exit planning. The CFO will also be instrumental in designing and enhancing financial infrastructure, controls, and reporting across the portfolio, and will serve as a trusted advisor to CEOs and management teams on budgeting, forecasting, and value-creation initiatives. The ideal CFO for this position will have a background that includes prior experience in a similar role within private equity, PE-backed companies, or lower-middle-market environments. Deep familiarity with transaction dynamics, leverage, debt facilities, and investor reporting is essential. The role requires a candidate with a strong technical finance background, sound judgment, and the ability to add value in complex, transaction-driven settings. Experience working with boards, founders, and investment committees is also a key requirement, and a CPA and/or prior public accounting background is preferred. The CFO will be expected to operate at both the firm and portfolio-company level, making this a high-impact opportunity for a senior finance executive.
