CFO, Healthcare Staffing

CFO, Healthcare Staffing - Remote

Our client is a Midwest-headquartered healthcare staffing firm supporting nursing homes, assisted living, and other care settings. The business runs on high-volume labor economics—hours worked, bill/pay rates, gross margin, mix, compliance, and disciplined cost control—requiring fast, reliable operating data and strong cash/working-capital management. Reporting to the CEO, the CFO will lead finance and serve as a hands-on business partner to the executive team—translating operating drivers into clear actions that improve profitability, cash generation, and scalability.

The role also oversees IT; technology strategy, systems execution, data governance, cybersecurity coordination, and IT investment prioritization. The CFO will be a key leader in preparing for and executing a future transaction.
