Our client, Movement Schools, is seeking a Chief Financial Officer to join a rapidly growing network of free public charter schools serving students in Pre-K through 5th grade across North Carolina and Georgia. Movement Schools exists to love and value scholars and communities by leading a movement of excellence in education, partnering with families to equip students with the self-efficacy, world-class instruction, and financial education needed to close generational opportunity gaps. Backed by the Movement Foundation's more than $300 million investment in educational opportunity, the organization is entering an exciting phase of multi-state growth and organizational expansion.
Reporting directly to the CEO, the CFO will serve as a key member of the executive leadership team, leading financial strategy, forecasting, compliance, and infrastructure for a growing, multi-entity organization with an approximately $50 million operating budget. This leader will build scalable financial systems, complete the transition to a fully in-house finance function, partner closely with the Board, and help shape the long-term financial health and strategic direction of the organization. This is an exceptional opportunity for a strategic, hands-on finance executive who enjoys building systems, leading high-performing teams, and driving sustainable growth in a mission-driven environment.
This role is based in Charlotte, NC or Atlanta, GA, and requires 30–40% travel between regions and schools.
