Best Call Funding is a Houston-based, NMLS-certified litigation funding company providing ethical and transparent funding solutions to personal injury attorneys and their clients nationwide. We are seeking a uniquely skilled Chief Financial Officer (CFO) who brings a blend of lending/funding experience, advanced financial problem-solving, and operational leadership to help scale and grow our organization.
This is not a traditional corporate CFO role. We are looking for a hands-on CFO with experience in financial “acrobatics”—someone who can creatively structure, analyze, and optimize capital, cash flow, and loan performance in a dynamic litigation funding environment. The ideal CFO understands lending, funding, and personal injury cases, and is comfortable working closely with sales, operations, and executive leadership.
Position Overview
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) will oversee all financial operations, accounting, reporting, and strategic financial planning for Best Call Funding. This role requires a detail-oriented financial leader who can supervise a team of 5–10 employees, review and structure funding contracts, manage risk, and support revenue growth. The CFO will collaborate directly with sales leadership and has prior experience interacting with or supporting sales teams in a lending or funding environment.
