Here at HR Soul our solutions amplify the performance of people and the soul of company culture. From strategic planning with CEO’s, partnering with HR leaders on key projects, building high performing teams to coaching and recruiting the future of our client’s organization.
About the Role
Our client is a long-standing, community-centered nonprofit organization serving a vibrant and growing membership base. Rooted in strong values and deep tradition, they provide a wide range of programs, services, and facilities that support individuals and families across all stages of life. They are entering a phase of modernization and thoughtful growth, strengthening financial discipline, improving systems, and positioning the organization for long-term sustainability. To support this evolution, they are seeking a hands-on, commercially minded Chief Financial Officer who brings both operational rigor and revenue-building perspective.
This is a working CFO role for someone who enjoys being close to the numbers, improving how things run, and helping an organization grow smarter, not just bigger.
Position Summary
The CFO will oversee all financial and administrative operations, including accounting, budgeting, audit, treasury, risk management, IT, facilities, and enterprise-wide financial governance. You will partner closely with executive leadership to improve financial performance, strengthen margins, and ensure resources are deployed effectively to support the organization’s mission.
This leader will be both steward and builder, protecting the foundation while actively improving the financial engine.

- Lead day-to-day accounting, budgeting, forecasting, cash management, and audit
- Maintain strong internal controls, policies, and compliance practices
- Oversee preparation of audited financial statements and board reporting

Strengthen Revenue & Financial Sustainability

- Identify margin improvement opportunities and new revenue streams
- Bring for-profit discipline to pricing, cost control, and financial decision-making
Strengthen Risk, Compliance & Infrastructure

Systems Oversight

What They’re Looking For
- CPA required
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business (Master’s preferred)
- 10+ years of progressive financial leadership experience
- Strong preference for candidates from for-profit environments, particularly retail, hospitality, real estate, or multi-site operations, with nonprofit exposure or experience as well
- Hands-on, improvement-oriented leadership style
- Comfort partnering with boards, lenders, auditors, and senior executives
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a CFO seat where your impact is visible, in cleaner processes, stronger margins, and smarter decision-making, all in service of a mission that genuinely matters.
