• Build and maintain clear, consistent financial dashboards and reporting systems to improve visibility and decision‑making

• Integrate financial insight into operational and project‑level decisions to support sustainable growth

• Oversee cash flow management and capital allocation across projects and business lines

• Strengthen internal controls, systems, and financial discipline as the company scales

• Manage banking relationships and support thoughtful, values‑aligned financing strategies

• Lead, mentor, and develop the accounting team with a people‑first, respectful approach

Qualifications:

• Experience as a CFO or senior financial leader in a multi‑entity environment

• Real estate, construction, or development finance experience preferred

• Strong communicator with the ability to engage non‑financial leaders
