Finance Manager

About Kanbrick  Kanbrick is a purpose-driven, long-term investment partner to owner-, family-, and founder-led businesses. We work hands-on with our companies to unlock their full potential through strong operations and people leadership, thinking in decades, not quarters. We are not a traditional private equity firm. We believe great companies are built by people, not financial engineering, and that the hard, unglamorous work of building operating infrastructure is what actually creates enduring value.
Our culture is purpose-driven, entrepreneurial, and meritocratic, with an emphasis on empowerment and accountability. You can learn more about Kanbrick at

The Role  Kanbrick is bringing on its first Finance Manager: a CPA, who is currently ready to step into real ownership of a firm’s full financial infrastructure. Reporting to the VP Finance, you will support Kanbrick’s accounting, compliance, investor relations, and tax functions, while also advancing firm administrative and operational priorities.
Accounting & Financial Reporting:
Own month-end and year-end close, financial statements, and internal reporting. Ensure books are clean, current, and audit-ready at all times. This is the foundation everything else rests on.
Compliance & Regulatory:
Support SEC compliance obligations, administer regulatory filings, and keep the firm current on its compliance calendar. You will be the internal subject matter expert and the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Tax:
Coordinate federal and state tax filings across the firm and its structures. Work with outside advisors and own the internal preparation.
Investor Relations & Audit:
Support investor relationships with accurate, timely financial reporting. Manage external audit processes end-to-end. Educate internal team members on financial matters as the firm grows.
This is a wide seat. The right person will run it autonomously and will be trained on any element where their background has gaps. What is not negotiable: technical accounting depth, CPA credentials, and the ability to work in a small, fast, high-trust environment without needing someone to hand you a checklist.
What Makes This Different  Real Ownership, Not a Support Function  Most finance roles at this stage of a firm's growth involve inheriting someone else's system and maintaining it. This role builds the system. You will shape how Kanbrick manages its financial infrastructure — and what that looks like for the next decade.
Breadth That Is Genuinely Rare  Accounting. Tax. Compliance. Investor relations. Audit management. Very few roles at this level touch all of it. The people who thrive here are the ones who find that breadth energizing — not overwhelming.
A Long-Term Home, Not a Stepping Stone  Kanbrick does not move fast to sell and move on. The firm is built to hold businesses for decades. The Finance Manager who joins now has the opportunity to grow with the firm as it adds partner companies, structures, and complexity, with real continuity and real career development.
Kanbrick is early in its trajectory. The Finance Manager who joins now is not filling a seat that already exists. You will build real functional expertise across many dimensions. As the firm grows its partner company reach, the right person in this role has a genuine path to broader ownership and senior finance leadership.
You will trade the narrow-lane safety of a large finance organization where someone else handles the things you haven’t learned yet, for breadth, real ownership, and proximity to decisions that matter. And three years from now, your resume will look very different from the person who stayed in the lane.
Who We're Looking For  The clearest path to this seat runs through Big 4 public accounting — audit or advisory — followed by a move into a smaller or founder-led business where the scope expanded quickly. If you left Big 4 and found yourself doing more than your title implied, building processes rather than inheriting them, and figuring things out without a deep bench around you — this role could be a great opportunity for you even if you're at an earlier stage of your career currently.
