This is a highly visible opportunity for a hands-on finance leader who is excited by the chance to create structure, implement best practices, and build scalable accounting processes from the ground up. The organization is at an inflection point and is seeking a strategic yet roll-up-your-sleeves professional who can oversee day-to-day accounting operations while partnering closely with executive leadership.

+ Develop, improve, and maintain Excel-based financial models, dashboards, and reporting tools

+ Identify inefficiencies and implement automation, workflow improvements, and stronger internal processes

+ Establish accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls to support a growing organization

+ Manage the budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis process

+ Ensure compliance with GAAP and support overall financial integrity and accuracy

+ Serve as a key business partner to executive leadership, providing actionable financial insights and recommendations

+ Help build and scale the internal finance and accounting function as the organization continues to grow

Why This Opportunity:

+ Rare chance to build an accounting and finance function internally from the ground up

+ High-impact role with direct exposure to and collaboration with the executive team

+ Opportunity to design processes, policies, and procedures and truly make the role your own

+ Strong potential for career growth as the company continues to expand

+ Meaningful opportunity to help shape the financial infrastructure of a growing healthcare organization
