  • M&A & Strategic Transactions – Source and evaluate opportunities, lead valuation and deal modeling, and drive due diligence and integration planning.
  • Financial Modeling & Scenario Planning – Own long-range plans, run stress tests, and connect strategy to operating plans and forecasts.
  • Governance & Stakeholder Management – Maintain finance policies, prepare board / investor materials, and partner cross-functionally to translate strategy into execution.

Must-Have Qualifications

  • Strong executive-level communication skills with credibility among investors, lenders, and boards.
  • Advanced Excel; proficiency in PowerPoint, Word; familiarity with BI tools (Looker / Power BI) and ERP (NetSuite / QuickBooks / Intacct).
