This is a hands-on, high-impact opportunity for a seasoned PE-backed CFO to lead finance in a complex, people-intensive environment.

Monitor and manage cash flow, working capital, and liquidity to ensure the business's financial stability and to optimize capital allocation.

Collaborate with the executive team and sponsor to develop short- and long-term financial strategy aligned with the investment thesis.

Ability to be a strategic partner to CEO / COO / PE.

Requirements

Proven success as CFO in a PE-backed, labor-intensive or multi-site services business.

A track record of driving performance improvement and preparing for exit.

Hands-on, collaborative leadership style with the ability to work closely across operational teams.
