- Partner with executive leadership on capital strategy, cost of capital optimization, and long-term growth planning
- Manage external CPA firms and advisors, ensuring performance, accountability, and alignment
- Establish transparent, standardized processes to ensure accessibility and integrity of financial data across the organization
- Drive structure, discipline, and operational consistency across the finance function
- Proven experience as a CFO or senior finance leader within financial services, alternative lending, specialty finance, or a similar high-velocity capital environment
- Demonstrated ability to prepare financials and reporting for institutional investors
- Strong expertise in tax implications as they relate to financial reporting and strategy

- Familiarity with portfolio modeling and structured finance
- Experience working within a close-knit, high-accountability team environment
- Demonstrates strong leadership presence and sound judgment
- High level of ownership and accountability
- Hands-on operator with a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset
