[Hiring] Small Business Chief Financial Officer @How to Manage a Small Law Firm

Role Description

We are looking for an insightful, high-EQ financial professional who can look past the numbers, connect the dots to a business owner's personal motivations, and help them make courageous growth decisions.

• Step in as the fractional CFO/Controller for a dedicated roster of up to 30 clients (gross revenues mostly under $10MM).
• Completely remote position with ~60 hours/month of client-facing time (via Zoom/phone) plus independent file prep and internal alignment.
• Analyze financials to spot trends and risks.
• Collaborate with bookkeepers to fix messy data.
• Deliver hard truths to the business owner with a mix of radical candor and humor.

Qualifications

• Hands-on experience advising under-capitalized small business owners who aren't financially literate.
• Ability to explain complex FP&A data in plain English.
• A massive bias for growth.
• High emotional intelligence.
• Confidence to hold clients accountable to their own goals.

Requirements

• Full-time availability (40–45 hours/week).
• Not suitable for QuickBooks-only operators or textbook accounting theorists.
• Must not want to delegate the down-and-dirty analysis to someone else.
• Not for corporate traditionalists who need rigid, slow-moving structures to thrive.

Benefits

• $110,000 base salary with performance incentives built to predictably scale you to $182,000/year.
• Outstanding medical, dental, and vision for you and your family (75% company-covered) + free short- and long-term disability.
• 401(k) match up to 3.5%, pet insurance, and legal coverage.
• Unlimited PTO, an exceptional EAP program, entirely closed for the week of Thanksgiving, plus one additional mandatory week off per year.
• Free access to elite personal and professional development programs.
