SCI, the Leader in Homebuilding Executive Search, has been retained by one of Indianapolis's leading private homebuilders to recruit a Chief Financial Officer to lead all Finance & Accounting operations. Delivering 250+ homes annually, this company is backed by strong capital partners and is actively acquiring land — with plans to significantly scale operations in the near term.
This is a high-visibility, owner-reporting role for a financial operator who can manage both the strategic side — banking relationships, investor reporting, capital structure — and the execution side, overseeing a capable accounting team. The right candidate is a hands-on leader who has scaled a homebuilding business before and is excited to do it again.
Key Responsibilities
- Banking & investor relationships — managing credit facilities, construction financing, and capital partner reporting
- Accounting team leadership — oversight of day-to-day financial operations, reporting, and controls
- Financial strategy — planning and infrastructure to support significant near-term growth
- Land & project finance — supporting an active land acquisition pipeline with strong financial partners already in place
Key Requirements
- Recent homebuilding industry experience — required, not preferred
- Proven experience managing bank and investor relationships in a real estate or homebuilding context
- Comfortable in a senior, owner-facing role with direct impact on business strategy
- Based in — or willing to relocate to — Indianapolis; this is an on-site position
