Vice President of Accounting and Finance

Indianapolis, United States | Posted on 09/11/2026

Jack Laurie Group has been in business since 1950 and is one of the largest interior service providers in the state. We also install flooring, drywall, acoustical tile ceilings, and offer janitorial services. We provide a safe, open and honest work environment,opportunities for growth, and steady work. We value our employees.

Jack Laurie Group is seeking an experienced Vice President of Finance to join our executive leadership team and help shape the next chapter of our company.

This is a 100% in-office leadership position based at our Indianapolis headquarters. This is not a remote or hybrid role. We believe this position requires a leader who is present, engaged, and working side-by-side with ownership, company leadership, the Finance team, and Operations.

We are a privately owned, entrepreneurial organization, and we are looking for a finance leader who thrives in that type of environment—someone who wants real ownership of their role, direct access to company ownership and leadership, and the opportunity to make a measurable impact on the business.

This is not a traditional corporate finance position where you simply manage the numbers and report results.

We are looking for a leader who will own the Finance and Accounting function, partner directly with ownership, the President, and company leadership, and help drive better business decisions across the organization.

The right person will be strategic enough to help shape the future of the company while remaining hands-on enough to understand what is happening inside the business.

Construction Accounting and Finance experience is strongly preferred, particularly experience with job costing, WIP reporting, project profitability, revenue recognition, forecasting, and the financial realities of a project-based business.

Experience working within a privately held, entrepreneur-owned, or family-owned business is also a strong plus. We value leaders who understand that these environments can move quickly, require flexibility, and provide an opportunity to work directly with the people who own and operate the business.

Ultimately, we are looking for a great fit—a strong financial leader who wants accountability, autonomy, and ownership while being part of a leadership team that works closely together to grow the company.

As Vice President of Finance, you will have executive-level responsibility for the financial health, performance, and direction of the organization.

You will:

Serve as the primary financial advisor to the President, ownership, and executive leadership team.

Take ownership of the company's Accounting and Finance function and continuously improve how Finance supports the business.

Present financial analysis, recommendations, risks, and opportunities to ownership, leadership, and the Board of Directors.

Participate in quarterly Board meetings as the organization's financial leader.

Help shape long-term company strategy through strong financial and business leadership.

Develop and execute financial strategies supporting sustainable and profitable growth.

Drive initiatives that improve EBITDA, profitability, cash flow, working capital, and enterprise value.

Evaluate investments, capital expenditures, financing opportunities, acquisitions, and other strategic initiatives.

Develop meaningful KPIs, dashboards, and financial scorecards that help leadership make better decisions.

Bring financial discipline and accountability to the organization without creating unnecessary bureaucracy.
