A private equity backed global experiential marketing organization, newly formed through merger, is hiring a Head of Finance for North America, its largest region by scale and profitability. The Head of Finance, North America owns the financial performance of the region: delivering revenue, EBITDA, and cash commitments, and making sure pricing, staffing, and investment decisions are made with clear economics in front of them.

Operating model build: stand up standardized forecasting, reporting, and KPI tracking; drive adoption of the new ERP (D365); implement end-to-end finance processes across the project lifecycle;

support procurement discipline and the rollout of pricing and cost allocation frameworks. Synergies and cost: track and deliver integration synergies and cost savings for the region. Team and capability: lead and develop the North America finance team with clear roles and accountability, a commercial, client-oriented culture, and applied AI and automation to cut…
