Location: Global
Reports To: CEO
Stakeholders: Board of Directors, Audit Committee, Investors, Lenders

About the Company
Our client is a global platform of operating companies delivering technology-enabled supply chain, logistics, and marketing execution solutions.
The organization operates across North America and internationally, combining technology, analytics, and execution to help enterprise and high-growth clients improve profitability and performance.
The business is in a phase of active transformation and value creation — not steady-state operations.

The Role
We are seeking a Transformation CFO — a leader who thrives in complexity, operates with urgency, and brings both hands-on execution and strategic clarity.

This is a high-impact role for a finance leader who can:
  • Drive liquidity and cash discipline.
  • Restore and expand profitability.
  • Build a scalable financial foundation.
  • Partner with the CEO and Board to create enterprise value.
You will serve as the guardian of capital, architect of financial strategy, and catalyst for performance improvement across a global, multi-entity platform. This is not a reporting role. This is a build, fix, and scale role.

Key Responsibilities

Cash, Liquidity & Financial Control
  • Establish daily and weekly cash visibility, forecasting, and control across all entities.
  • Drive working capital optimization, collections discipline, and vendor management.
  • Implement a tight operating cadence, including 13-week cash flow, variance tracking, and rapid interventions.
  • Lead lender engagement, covenant compliance, and short- and medium-term liquidity planning.
Profitability & Performance Turnaround
  • Own full P&L performance with accountability for margin improvement.
  • Drive cost optimization, pricing discipline, and operational efficiency initiatives.
  • Partner with business leaders to improve unit economics and contract profitability.
  • Build real-time KPI dashboards that enable action, not just reporting.
Strategic Finance & Capital Structure
  • Lead capital strategy across debt, equity, and internal allocation.
  • Develop scenario modeling, restructuring options, and value creation plans.
  • Support M&A, divestitures, and integrations with a focus on ROI and execution discipline.
Financial Operations & Governance
  • Oversee FP&A, Accounting, Tax, Treasury, Compliance, and Financial Reporting.
  • Ensure compliance with US GAAP and global statutory requirements.
  • Establish clear, decision-grade reporting for the CEO, Board, and investors.
  • Strengthen internal controls while maintaining speed and agility.
Commercial Partnership
  • Partner on pricing, deal structuring, and client negotiations.
  • Ensure contracts reflect economic reality, margin expectations, and risk mitigation.
  • Provide financial rigor to growth initiatives and new service offerings.
Transformation & Systems
  • Lead finance transformation, including ERP optimization, automation, and data governance.
  • Build a forward-looking finance function leveraging analytics and AI.
Leadership
  • Build and lead a high-performing global finance organization.
  • Operate effectively across a US–India model and multi-entity structure.
  • Foster a culture of ownership, urgency, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Qualifications & Experience
Education & Credentials
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field required.
  • MBA and/or CPA preferred.
  • Equivalent experience leading complex financial organizations may be considered in lieu of formal credentials.
Experience
  • 20+ years of progressive finance leadership experience.
  • Proven experience as a CFO or equivalent senior finance leader.
  • Demonstrated success in turnaround, restructuring, or high cash-pressure environments.
  • Experience in multi-entity, global organizations with US GAAP reporting.
  • Track record of direct engagement with Boards, lenders, and investors.
Technical & Functional Expertise
  • Deep command of US GAAP, financial reporting, and internal controls.
  • Strong expertise in cash flow management, working capital optimization, and liquidity planning.
  • Proven ownership of P&L, forecasting, and margin improvement initiatives.
  • Experience with capital structure management, including debt, equity, and covenants.
  • Familiarity with ERP systems, finance transformation, and automation.
Preferred Background
  • Experience in private equity-backed or founder-led environments.
  • Industry experience in supply chain, logistics, or technology-enabled services.
  • Exposure to US-India operating models or global capability centers.
Leadership Profile
  • Hands-on operator with a strong bias for action and accountability.
  • Ability to operate at both strategic and execution levels simultaneously.
  • Strong commercial instincts and decision-making under pressure.
  • Willingness to lean in, challenge constructively, and drive outcomes.
  • High integrity, resilience, and ownership mindset.

Why This Role
This is an opportunity to:
  • Shape the financial trajectory of a global, multi-platform business.
  • Partner directly with the CEO and Board on high-impact decisions.
  • Lead a true transformation — not incremental change.
  • Build a modern, technology-enabled finance organization.

Closing Thought
Credentials are valued.
Proven performance in high-pressure operating environments is essential.
We are not looking for a caretaker.
We are looking for a builder who can operate in the storm and create long-term value on the other side.

Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
