🚀 Exciting opportunity: SVP, Chief Financial Officer – Latin America

📍 Fort Lauderdale, FL | Relocation available

MSH is partnering with a global leader in professional and consumer products on a confidential executive search, and this one is special.

This isn't a "keep the lights on" CFO seat. It's a true BUILD role. You'll be the senior-most finance leader for a fast-growing Latin America region, shaping the finance function as the business expands into new countries. You'll partner directly with the regional President to drive growth across two independent businesses.

What you'll build:

🔹 The regional finance playbook, operating model and controls, as the business enters new markets with their own regulations, currencies and routes to market

🔹 A high-performing team of about 25 across Controller, Commercial Finance and FP&A

🔹 A finance function that drives commercial results: pricing, margin, product economics and working capital in a manufacturing, distribution and channel-led model

⚠️ Must-haves:

✅ Hands-on Latin America finance leadership. Multi-country, multi-currency, matrixed regional experience is non-negotiable.

✅ Proven commercial impact. You've moved the numbers on revenue growth, margin expansion, pricing or channel strategy, not just reported on them.

✅ A builder's track record. You've set up or scaled LATAM finance inside a large enterprise.

✅ 15+ years of progressive finance leadership as a CFO, regional or divisional CFO, or senior finance executive, ideally in a $500M–$1B business

✅ Bilingual English/Spanish (Portuguese a plus). Bachelor's required, MBA and/or CPA preferred.

We're looking for a business leader first and a finance leader second: entrepreneurial, hands-on, comfortable with ambiguity and excited to shape a region's next chapter of growth.
