Strategic Regional Finance Manager

Regional Finance Manager

Current is seeking a hands-on, highly capable Regional Finance Manager to serve as the embedded financial partner to regional leadership. This is not a back-office reporting role, it is a regional, hands-on finance leadership role. You will function as a trusted advisor who understands the region's operating environment at every level, from firm-wide business performance down to office-level detail, and who can distill that complexity into insight leadership can act on.

This role reports directly to the Director, Corporate FP&A at Current, while carrying direct, hands-on ownership and accountability for financial planning, reporting, analysis and related support for the Northeast region.

The right candidate is proactive and genuinely hands-on: comfortable owning a wide range of tasks that go well beyond producing analytics, including digging into root causes, using data to build a clear narrative around performance, and staying engaged through follow-through on the actions that result. Success in this role requires executive presence, sharp problem-solving instincts, and the ability to communicate complex financial and operational issues in a way that is clear, cohesive, and immediately useful to leadership supporting not just the recommendation, but the execution that follows it.

The ideal candidate brings deep FP&A experience in multi-entity or PE-backed environments, thrives in ambiguity, and can move fluidly between strategic and executional work equally comfortable framing a capital allocation decision for regional leadership and pulling the underlying office-level data apart to explain why a number moved.

This role is ideally suited for a candidate based in the NY Metro region. Proximity to the region's firms gives this person the ability to be genuinely hands-on visiting offices regularly, building in-person relationships with firm leaders, and staying close to the office-level detail that drives the analysis. Just as important, this is a team player who integrates naturally with the regional leadership team: someone who earns trust through consistent presence and collaboration, not just the quality of the analysis delivered from a distance.

Candidates must be located in the NY Metro area.
