Job Description

The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) is a key member of the Executive Leadership Team, providing strategic financial leadership, enterprise-wide advice, and trusted decision support to advance LutherCare Communities' mission, strategic priorities, and long-term sustainability. Reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the CFO serves as a collaborative business partner who connects financial stewardship with strategy, operations, risk, and organizational performance.

Beyond providing financial leadership, the CFO has a unique opportunity to shape how Finance enables organizational performance and enterprise decision-making. Working in close partnership with the CEO, Executive Leadership Team, and Board of Directors, the CFO will help translate strategic vision into practical execution by strengthening the organization's financial capabilities and supporting informed, confident decision-making across the enterprise.

A key priority for the incoming CFO will be leading the continued evolution of the finance function. This includes advancing the implementation and optimization of SAP while strengthening the systems, processes, and disciplines that enable effective financial planning, reporting, governance, and organizational insight. Success will be measured not simply by implementing new tools, but by building a finance function that delivers meaningful business intelligence, supports operational excellence, and creates long-term organizational value.

The successful candidate will also play an integral role in supporting LutherCare's long-term sustainability by evaluating strategic opportunities, capital investments, and organizational initiatives through sound financial analysis and thoughtful business counsel. Equally important is the ability to simplify complexity—translating financial, operational, legal, and technical information into practical insights that empower leaders to make informed decisions with confidence.

This opportunity calls for a leader who understands that meaningful transformation is achieved through people. The successful candidate will know how to challenge the status quo while respecting the organization's culture, balancing innovation with stability, and building trust through collaboration, clarity, and empathy. They will foster Finance's evolution into a valued strategic partner, strengthening organizational capability while positioning LutherCare Communities for continued success.
