This executive will serve as a key partner to the CEO and leadership team, driving financial performance, scalability, and long-term growth.

Develop and manage budgeting, forecasting, and financial modeling processes
Deliver insights on unit-level economics, labor models, and cost controls
Oversee cash flow, capital structure, and banking relationships
Evaluate M&A opportunities, site development investments, and new market expansion
Ensure compliance with all financial, regulatory, and reporting requirements
Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing finance team

Qualifications

Proven experience as a CFO or senior finance executive within the restaurant, retail, or multi-unit consumer-facing industry
Deep understanding of multi-unit, multi-state operations and unit-level financial performance
Strong background in scaling organizations through growth phases (organic and/or acquisition)
Expertise in financial planning, analytics, and operational finance
Experience working closely with ownership, private equity, or board stakeholders preferred
Demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional leaders and drive results
CPA, MBA, or equivalent financial leadership credentials preferred

Why This Role

High-impact executive leadership position with direct influence on company growth and strategy
Opportunity to shape the financial future of a dynamic, expanding organization
Collaborative, entrepreneurial leadership team
Competitive compensation package including bonus and potential equity upside
