As our Director of Finance, you'll own the monthly close from start to finish across three entities in two countries, lead a finance team of four, and report directly to the CFO. You'll have the autonomy to improve processes, modernize systems, and influence executive decisions while remaining close enough to the numbers to understand every detail.
This is a Director title with Controller-level ownership. You'll sign off on the financial statements—and you'll still be comfortable rolling up your sleeves to build a reconciliation when needed.
