  • Experience supporting private equity-backed portfolio companies preferred
  • Advanced financial modeling expertise, including liquidity forecasting and scenario analysis
  • Experience leading budgeting, forecasting, and AOP processes
  • Strong executive communication and presentation skills
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent engagements in fast-paced environments

CPA, CFA, or MBA credentials are viewed favorably but not required.Compensation and Benefits
  • Base salary range of $150,000-$200,000, plus performance-based incentive bonus.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
