About the Company

We are a fast-growing corporate services firm providing financial, operational, and compliance infrastructure for more than 50 cannabis retail, manufacturing, and delivery businesses across multiple states. Our organization builds disciplined systems that bring transparency, scalability, and governance to a highly regulated industry.

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.
