Regional Chief Financial Officer (CFO) - North Region

As the Regional Chief Financial Officer, you will serve as a strategic financial partner to each firm in the region, translating performance data into actionable insight and working alongside firm leadership to strengthen financial health across the portfolio.

You are a trusted advisor and thought partner who earns the right to drive change by building relationships, surfacing insights, and helping firm leaders think differently about their business. Your effectiveness will be measured by how well you identify financial soft spots, bring firm leaders along in understanding them, and partner to develop strategies that improve direct labor performance, contract pricing, cash collections, and overall profitability.
