Head of Finance

A growing defense manufacturer is hiring a Head of Finance to lead and build its U.S. finance organization through its next stage of growth.

You will be the senior finance leader in the U.S., working directly with executive leadership while building the processes, controls, systems, and financial operating rhythm needed to support a scaling defense business.

There is already FP&A and bookkeeping support in place. The opportunity is to connect the pieces, build what is missing, and make the finance function your own.

.

You will have direct access to executive leadership, an existing team to build around, international exposure, and the opportunity to shape how the U.S. finance organization operates as the company grows.
