  • 10+ years of progressive financial leadership experience, including CFO or #1 finance leader role
  • Experience within companies ranging approximately $75M–$300M in revenue
  • Proven success in multi-location, operationally complex environments (retail strongly preferred)
  • Strong experience in inventory-heavy and/or warehouse/distribution operations
  • Demonstrated leadership managing and developing finance teams (6+ direct/indirect reports)
  • Hands-on experience leading ERP implementations or major system upgrades
  • Advanced financial modeling, forecasting, and KPI development skills

Preferred Experience
  • Retail, automotive, or service-based industries
  • Experience in decentralized or multi-unit business models
  • M&A experience, particularly buy-side integration
  • Exposure to private equity or advisory board environments
  • Track record of standardizing processes across multiple locations

Profile We’re Targeting
  • Hands-on operator with a builder’s mindset
