Family Promise of Spokane is seeking a strategic, hands-on Finance Director to lead our finance function during an

important stage of growth.

The Finance Director serves as the organization’s senior finance leader and works closely with the CEO, leadership team, Finance Committee, and Board of Directors. This position is responsible for financial strategy, accounting operations, budgeting, forecasting, grant financial management, internal controls, reporting, audit preparation, and finance team leadership.

This is an opportunity for a nonprofit finance professional who enjoys both strategy and execution — someone who can advise at the board level while also strengthening the day‑time systems that keep the organization financially healthy and accountable.

The Finance Director will lead and strengthen the organization’s financial operations, including:

• Serve as the primary financial advisor to the CEO, leadership team, Finance Committee, and Board.
• Lead budgeting, forecasting, cash flow planning, financial analysis, and long‑term financial modeling.
• Prepare clear, accurate, and useful financial reports for leadership and the Board.
• Oversee accounting operations, including month‑end close, reconciliations, AP, AR, payroll coding, general ledger accuracy, and financial statements.
• Strengthen internal controls, purchasing processes, documentation standards, approval workflows, and financial procedures.
• Lead grant financial management, including restricted funds, reimbursement requests, spend‑down tracking, allowable costs, reporting deadlines, and compliance.
• Help prevent under utilization, returned grant funds, coding errors, missed deadlines, and delayed billing.
• Support audit preparation, Form 990 review, funder monitoring, and compliance requirements.
• Build dashboards and reporting tools that make financial information clear and actionable.
• Supervise, coach, and develop finance staff.
• Participate as a member of the leadership team in an EOS‑aligned environment, including scorecards, Rocks, issue‑solving, and accountability rhythms.
• Partner across departments to support program operations, staffing decisions, grant requirements, and organizational growth.

The ideal candidate is a nonprofit finance leader who is strategic, practical, collaborative, and highly accountable. You should be comfortable leading financial conversations with executives and board members while also improving systems, solving problems, and supporting staff.

Strong candidates will bring:

• Significant nonprofit finance, accounting, or fund accounting experience.
• Experience with government grants, restricted funds, reimbursement‑based funding, grant reporting, and compliance.
• Strong understanding of internal controls, reconciliations, audit preparation, financial reporting, and nonprofit accounting practices.
• Experience developing budgets, forecasts, dashboards, cash flow projections, and variance analysis.
• Ability to explain financial information clearly to non‑finance audiences.
• Experience supervising or developing accounting or finance staff.
• Strong spreadsheet skills and experience with Quick Books or similar accounting systems.
• Excellent judgment, confidentiality, follow‑through, and communication skills.
• Ability to work both strategically and hands‑on in a growing organization.

• CPA, CMA, MBA, MPA, or relevant advanced credential or equivalent experience.
• Experience in a nonprofit organization with approximately $5M–$15M+ in annual revenue.
• Experience bringing outsourced accounting functions in‑house or strengthening internal finance…
