The CFO will serve as the senior finance leader for the organization, owning day-to-day accounting and financial operations while also serving as a key strategic and executive voice. This is a hands-on role: you will personally manage core accounting and reporting functions (with one direct report) while also reporting monthly to the Board of Directors and playing an active role in M&A due diligence, HR/benefits administration, and contract and legal matters. This role is well suited to a finance leader who wants high visibility and board-level exposure without requiring a large team beneath them. MSP or similar tech-services/consulting industry experience is highly valued given the nature of the business.

- Support the transition and integration of financial data into a new company-wide CRM/operations platform

- Ensure compliance with relevant financial regulations and reporting standards

**Qualifications**

- 10+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience, including prior Controller or CFO-level experience

- MSP, IT services, or technology consulting industry experience strongly preferred, understanding of the MSP business model is a key differentiator for this role

- Demonstrated experience with financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting at a company of similar size (~$10-25M revenue)

- Prior experience supporting M&A due diligence and evaluation

- Comfortable operating in a lean, hands-on environment with direct ownership of core accounting functions

- Experience presenting to a Board of Directors or executive leadership team

- Strong communication skills and comfort operating cross-functionally across HR, legal, and operations
