Director of Finance

St. Luke’s School located in New York City’s West Village is partnering with the Finance and Operations Practice at Carney Sandoe to find its next Director of Finance. Celebrating 80 years of learning with joy and leading with heart, the school enrolls 355 students in grades JK-8. St. Luke’s seeks an experienced, technically astute professional to join the senior finance team.

The Director of Finance ensures the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of all accounting systems, operations, and financial reporting. The position reports to the Chief Finance and Operations Officer, serving as strategic partner, guiding and supporting the Business Office team and overseeing day-to-day accounting functions, instituting efficiencies, and ensuring strong internal controls and full compliance with GAAP standards for non-profit organizations.

The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in non-profit, fund, and construction accounting, ideally gained in an independent school or similarly complex not-for-profit environment. A CPA is strongly preferred. Equally important is the ability to support St. Luke’s mission and community standards as well as thrive within its collaborative, relationship-driven culture.
