The objective is to eliminate manual processes, connect financial and operational information, and establish scalable capabilities across banking, accounts receivable, KPIs, market-level profitability, budgeting, and forecasting.

We seek someone who anticipates needs rather than waiting for direction: a leader who identifies deficiencies, develops practical solutions, sets priorities, and owns implementation. The successful candidate combines strong accounting and FP&A expertise with substantial hands-on NetSuite experience and a demonstrated record of financial systems transformation.

• Strong GAAP, accounting operations, controls, and financial statement expertise; experience developing finance professionals.
• Strong project management, analytical, communication, and cross-functional execution skills.

Requirements

• Lead the transformation of Luna’s current NetSuite deployment into a fully integrated, automated, scalable financial management platform.
• Assess configurations, integrations, reporting capabilities, and manual workflows; develop and execute a prioritized optimization roadmap with the VP of Finance.
• Integrate banking and cash management, including bank feeds, transaction processing, reconciliation, and cash visibility.
• Integrate accounts receivable and revenue cycle/collections data, with automated reconciliations and improved AR reporting.
• Build automated financial and operational KPI dashboards and market-level P&Ls covering revenue, direct costs, allocated expenses, and profitability.
• Integrate budgeting and forecasting with automated actual-versus-budget reporting, rolling forecasts, and scenario modeling.
• Reduce spreadsheets, manual transfers, duplicate entry, and disconnected reporting; establish sound data structures, reporting dimensions, and controls.
• Evaluate appropriate NetSuite modules and complementary planning/reporting solutions; manage internal resources and external implementation partners.
• Deliver measurable improvements in accuracy, close efficiency, reporting timeliness, and management visibility.
• Lead annual budgeting, rolling forecasting, and long-range financial planning.
• Develop integrated models for revenue, collections, therapist costs, gross margin, operating expenses, EBITDA, and cash flow.
• Own automated monthly performance reporting against budget, forecast, and prior year, at company and market levels.
• Build actionable KPI dashboards and partner with Revenue Cycle Management and Operations on collections, cost management, and profitability.
• Prepare executive and board-level reports, forecasts, presentations, and scenario analyses; proactively quantify risks and opportunities.
• Manage, coach, and develop the Accounting Manager and provide oversight of the accounting team.
• Oversee monthly, quarterly, and annual closes; review statements, significant reconciliations, accruals, and estimates.
• Maintain GAAP compliance, effective policies, internal controls, and accurate NetSuite financial data.
• Oversee general ledger, accounts payable, AR reconciliations, and cash management; coordinate audit and tax requirements.
• Improve close efficiency, reduce manual entries, and ensure accounting information supports FP&A and operational decisions.
• Anticipate financial, operational, and systems issues and take ownership of implementing solutions.
• Partner with operational leaders on financial targets, accountability, margins, operating costs, and cash flow.
• Challenge inefficient processes and lead cross-functional improvements with clear milestones, measurable objectives, and accountability.

• Transformed an underutilized or partially integrated NetSuite environment into a comprehensive financial management platform.
• Comfortable moving from strategic planning to hands-on execution.

• NetSuite expertise: connects data, automates workflows, and produces meaningful management information.
• FP&A leadership: converts financial and operational data into insights that improve forecasts, profitability, and decisions.
