Senior Director of Finance

The Senior Director of Finance is FACETS' senior finance leader, responsible for the financial health, integrity, and strategic direction of the organization. This role oversees budgeting, financial reporting, grants and contracts accounting, internal controls, and the annual audit, and serves as the organization's principal advisor on financial strategy and sustainability.

This role combines strategic financial leadership (board reporting, budgeting, financial planning, audit oversight) with direct involvement in the organization's core accounting work and close supervision of the finance team. The ideal candidate has held senior finance leadership responsibility in a similarly sized organization, is comfortable engaging in the details of the organization's finances, and is energized by building strong systems and a strong team in a mission-driven environment.

FACETS is a nonprofit organization that transforms lives by stabilizing and empowering individuals and families facing poverty, housing instability, hunger, and financial insecurity. Through innovative programs, strong partnerships, and data-driven strategies, we create pathways to lasting and systemic change. We meet emergency needs through wraparound services and community partnerships, and help individuals and families experience safe and stable housing after years of uncertainty and instability.

We strive to ensure that every person in our community has a place they can call home. Every member of the FACETS team plays a role in making a difference in the lives of our most vulnerable neighbors.
