OVERVIEW
Tyton Holdings, Inc.was formed in 2011 and has grown into a strategic family office with a diverse portfolio spanning oil and gas, propane, fabrication, construction, engineering, mechanical, plumbing, and power generation.Tyton was built by operators who’ve been in the trenches — serving customers, building teams, fixing what’s broken, and carrying the weight when the load gets heavy.We’re not your typical private equity firm beholden to outside investors. Instead, we put our energy where it counts — solving problems, unlocking growth, and backing companies we believe in.
POSITION SUMMARY
Tyton is seeking a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to oversee all financial aspects of one of its portfolio company’s infrastructure and construction efforts. The CFO is a senior executive responsible for the financial health and strategic direction of all finance and accounting functions. Reporting directly to the President, the CFO serves as a key business partner across operations, field leadership, and ownership. This role demands deep fluency in project-based accounting — particularly WIP (work-in-progress) reporting, job costing, bonding capacity, and the cash flow dynamics inherent to the construction and infrastructure trades.
This is a hands-on operating role, not a pure strategic one. The right candidate combines technical accounting rigor with a contractor's intuition for margin and cash.
