About the Role

The Vice President of Finance will serve as the enterprise-level financial architect—owning strategy, controls, forecasting, and reporting across all entities. This role leads the full finance organization, encompassing Accounting, FP&A, Treasury, Tax, Compliance, and Investor Relations. The VP of Finance will design the systems, processes, and metrics that ensure financial accuracy, liquidity strength, and strategic insight across a multi-state, multi-entity portfolio.

Key Responsibilities 1. Financial Leadership & Strategy

  • Lead the corporate finance function overseeing AP, AR, Payroll, Bookkeeping, FP&A, Forecasting, Budgeting, and Financial Reporting.
  • Provide executive insight into revenue, margin, cash flow, and ROI trends across divisions.
  • Translate financial results into actionable strategies aligned with operational priorities and growth targets.
  • Partner with the C-suite on capital allocation, market expansion, and long-term financial planning.

2. Accounting Operations & Internal Controls

  • Oversee daily accounting operations, monthly closes, and multi-entity consolidations.
  • Maintain a strong internal-control environment including segregation of duties, close calendars, and audit documentation.
  • Implement forensic-accounting protocols, variance analysis, and fraud-prevention safeguards.
  • Ensure GAAP compliance across all entities and support external audit readiness.
  • 3. Financial Planning, Analysis & Forecasting

  • Build dynamic financial models for short- and long-range planning, scenario modeling, and margin sensitivity.
  • Manage enterprise budgeting and rolling forecasts integrated with headcount and CapEx planning.
  • Partner with Operations and Retail leadership to track store-level performance, unit economics, and contribution margins.
  • Provide business intelligence dashboards for executives and investors.
  • 4. Treasury & Cash Management

  • Oversee banking relationships, cash forecasting, and liquidity management across multiple states.
  • Manage a 13-week cashflow model and optimize working capital, credit facilities, and debt covenants.
  • Supervise armored-cash logistics, payment controls, and treasury compliance.
  • Establish investment policies and ensure secure handling of multi-entity funds.
  • 5. Tax & Regulatory Compliance

  • Direct all federal, state, and local tax strategy—including sales, excise, payroll, and income tax reporting.
  • Coordinate with external advisors to maintain compliance with evolving tax laws and industry-specific regulations.
  • Oversee franchise, property, and entity-level registrations and renewals.
  • Implement systems that ensure audit readiness and minimize exposure.
  • 6. Revenue Operations & Cost Accounting

  • Own revenue recognition, pricing controls, and discount governance aligned with ASC 606 principles.
  • Develop and maintain cost-accounting models that link procurement, manufacturing, and retail activity.
  • Oversee inventory valuation, standard costing, and shrink / variance analysis.
  • Ensure accurate COGS reporting and gross-margin visibility for every business unit.
  • 7. Audit, Investor Relations & Corporate Governance

  • Lead annual audit processes and coordinate with external auditors.
  • Prepare Board and investor packages including monthly financial statements, KPI dashboards, and narrative analysis.
  • Manage investor communications, covenant tracking, and due-diligence requests.
  • Support potential M&A activity, valuations, and integration planning.
  • 8. Financial Systems (AIS & ERP Ownership)

  • Serve as executive owner of the Accounting Information System and ERP (Sage Intacct).
  • Oversee integrations with POS, HRIS, seed-to-sale, and banking platforms.
  • Ensure data integrity, security, and consistent master-data governance.
  • Lead roadmap for automation, BI tools, and close-cycle acceleration.
  • 9. Procure-to-Pay & Vendor Governance

  • Oversee vendor onboarding, payment terms, and approval workflows.
  • Implement three-way match and PO compliance processes across departments.
  • Monitor spend analytics to optimize cash cycle and vendor leverage.
  • 10. Risk Management & Insurance

  • Manage enterprise insurance portfolio (D&O, liability, property, workers' comp).
  • Partner with Legal and Operations to identify financial risks and mitigation strategies.
  • Establish contingency plans and emergency funding protocols for high-risk operations.
  • Ideal Candidate Profile

    You are a disciplined, strategic financial executive with deep experience leading complex, multi-entity finance functions. You thrive on building systems, processes, and teams that transform data into strategic insight and operational excellence.

    Qualifications

  • 15+ years of progressive finance leadership, including executive P&L and multi-state experience.
  • CPA, MBA, or CFA strongly preferred.
  • Expertise in GAAP compliance, multi-entity consolidations, and FP&A.
  • Demonstrated leadership in ERP / AIS implementation and automation.
  • Proven ability to manage treasury, tax, audit, and investor relations concurrently.
  • Experience in retail, manufacturing, or regulated industries is highly valued.
  • Performance Outcomes

  • Clean, on-time monthly closes and audit-ready financial statements.
  • Accurate 13-week cash forecast and tight working-capital management.
