CFO

GHJ Search & Staffing is partnering with our client, a well-established organization based in Atlanta, Georgia, to recruit a Chief Financial Officer (CFO) with proven experience in real estate investment, development, and construction.

Our client manages a diverse nine-figure portfolio spanning multifamily, office, luxury single-family development, private equity, and alternative investments.

This is a unique opportunity for a hands-on, strategic CFO to lead the finance function of a prestigious real estate and construction group with a track record of excellence.

Key Responsibilities

  • Partner with ownership and executive leadership to drive long-term financial strategy and growth initiatives.
  • Lead capital planning, treasury management, and cash flow optimization across multiple entities.
  • Oversee financing, banking, and lender relationships, including debt covenants and construction financing.
  • Support decision-making for new developments, acquisitions, dispositions, and 1031 exchanges.
  • Provide financial modeling and investment analysis (IRR, cash-on-cash, ROI) for real estate and private equity investments.
  • Advise on risk management, tax strategies, and entity structures (LLCs, Trusts, S Corps, etc.).
  • Lead the accounting and finance team; oversee the Controller and staff to ensure accurate and timely reporting.
  • Manage multi-entity consolidations and oversee month-end, quarter-end, and year-end closes.
  • Present financial results and forecasts to ownership and Board-level stakeholders.
  • Implement and maintain internal controls, compliance, and financial policies.
  • Coordinate with external auditors, tax advisors, and legal counsel.
  • Oversee construction project financial management, including cost controls, job costing, and loan draws.
  • Manage pay application processes (AIA 702 / 703) and reporting packages for active projects.
  • Review third-party property management reporting and provide oversight on asset performance.
  • Support business strategy and resource allocation for ongoing and future developments.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (MBA preferred).
  • CPA required; additional credentials (CFA, CCIM, etc.) a plus.
  • 12+ years of progressive finance and accounting leadership experience, with at least 5 years in a senior executive role (CFO, VP Finance, etc.).
  • Significant experience in real estate investment, development, construction, and property management.
  • Proven track record managing banking and lender relationships, including construction financing.
  • Strong financial modeling and analysis skills (Excel and related tools).
  • Experience with Yardi, Sage, or similar real estate / accounting platforms strongly preferred.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and executive presence.
  • Hands-on and entrepreneurial, with the ability to operate in a lean but highly sophisticated environment.
