Chief Financial Officer

A well-established, growing design-build firm in Syracuse is looking for its next Chief Financial Officer. The organization has been part of the Central New York building landscape for decades, with a strong reputation for architecture, construction, and development work across industrial, commercial, and mixed-use projects.

This is a true CFO seat, reporting directly to the CEO. It's a strategic role for someone ready to help guide the company's next chapter of growth. You'll oversee a full accounting team, including a corporate controller who reports to you, and you'll stay close enough to the numbers to catch things others miss. This is a role for someone who wants a seat at the leadership table but still knows their way around a WIP schedule.

• Proven CFO or senior finance leadership experience, ideally in construction or a related capital-intensive industry
• Strong understanding of construction accounting, including WIP schedules, job costing, and percentage-of-completion revenue recognition
• Experience with construction-specific ERP systems like Viewpoint, Procore, or Timberline
• CPA strongly preferred
• Someone who can operate strategically while still being comfortable in the details when needed
• Based in or willing to relocate to the Syracuse area; this is a fully in-office role
