We are hiring a CFO at Mack Boring & Parts Co. — and this is a great opportunity

Mack Boring is a growing industrial distributor serving marine and industrial power markets. We are scaling toward our next stage of maturity, and I am looking for a CFO who will help architect the financial operating system of the company.

Not maintain it. Build it.

This role sits at the intersection of:

• cash discipline

• inventory intelligence

• operational finance

• executive partnership

• capital clarity

• cultural leadership

If your instinct is to optimize spreadsheets more than you optimize decisions, this is not your role.

If your instinct is to improve how a company thinks, operates, and allocates capital — keep reading.

What success looks like

The CFO we hire will:

• Improve financial predictability

• Strengthen working capital performance

• Elevate executive decision quality

• Create transparency without bureaucracy

• Protect liquidity without slowing growth

• Build scalable infrastructure

• Develop internal talent

• Act as a true peer in leadership

This is a hands-on operator CFO role in a real-world distribution business.

Inventory, cash timing, and operational execution matter more here than theoretical finance.

Culture matters

Our customer promise is built around:

Performance

Value

Support

That is not a marketing slogan. It is an operating philosophy.

Finance is not separate from customer experience in this company. Operational friction is a finance issue. Cash discipline exists to support reliability — not replace it.

We want a CFO who sees finance as an operating partner, not a gatekeeper.

The profile we are seeking

We are looking for someone who has:

• Senior finance leadership in distribution or inventory-heavy businesses

• Deep working capital experience

• Cash forecasting discipline

• ERP and systems implementation experience

• Comfort in privately held mid-market companies

• Builder mentality

• Calm executive presence

• Strong communication skills

• High integrity and judgment

• Respect for long-tenured teams

• Ability to introduce discipline without disruption

This is not a corporate CFO role.

This is a scaling industrial business where finance touches real operations every day.

Why this seat is interesting

This role offers:

• Direct executive partnership with ownership

• Real authority to architect systems

• A company entering its next growth stage

• Complex, real-world operational challenges

• A leadership team that wants to improve

• A culture that values long-term thinking

• The opportunity to build something meaningful

You are not inheriting a finished machine.

You are helping design the next version.

Who should reach out

If you are:

• an operator CFO

• a builder

• comfortable in gray areas

• financially rigorous

• strategically mature

• collaborative

• calm under pressure

• allergic to bureaucracy

• energized by real business problems

If you want corporate polish, rigid authority, or purely theoretical finance — we are not your company.

And that’s okay.
