Oversee accounting, FP&A, budgeting, cash flow management, and financial reporting
Partner closely with operations to improve job costing, margins, and division-level performance
Drive financial discipline, internal controls, compliance, and risk management
Manage banking relationships, credit facilities, and capital planning
Support growth initiatives, including new markets, acquisitions, and post-acquisition integration
Develop, mentor, and scale the finance and accounting teams
Deliver clear financial insights, dashboards, and KPIs to executive leadership
Ensure alignment between financial goals and operational execution

Ideal Candidate Profile

Experience in landscaping, construction, field services, or other labor-driven, multi-location businesses strongly preferred
Deep expertise in job costing, labor management, and operational finance
Strategic thinker with a hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves leadership style
Track record of supporting growth, scaling systems, and improving financial infrastructure
Strong communicator who partners effectively with executives and operations leaders
High integrity, accountability, and ownership mindset

What Success Looks Like

Improved visibility into margins and performance by division
Strong cash flow management and forecasting accuracy
Scalable financial systems that support continued growth
Finance function viewed as a strategic business partner—not just a reporting role
Trusted advisor relationship with the CEO and leadership team

Job Requirements

Proven experience leading finance for a multi-division, labor-driven organization
Strong background in job costing, budgeting, forecasting, cash flow management, and financial reporting
Demonstrated ability to partner with operations to improve margins and operational performance
Experience scaling financial systems, controls, and processes in a growing organization
Hands-on leadership style with the ability to operate strategically and tactically
Experience managing banking relationships, credit facilities, and capital planning

Long-term growth opportunity within a stable, expanding organization
