Job description

Global Finance Director, Trilogy (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

Are you a finance virtuoso ready to redefine the limits of what's possible? Your skills in audits, ERP systems, and compliance have prepared you for this moment: to architect a finance system that scales a billion-dollar education empire effortlessly.

This isn't your typical finance position. At Trilogy, we are at the forefront of educational innovation with a diverse portfolio of schools and cutting-edge EdTech solutions. We seek a visionary who can match our pace and transform our finance operations into an AI-powered powerhouse. Not only will you learn how to build $1B enterprises, but you'll also create the blueprint for scaling them repeatedly. Are you ready to revolutionize finance? Apply now.

What You Will Be Doing

• Crafting AI-driven financial processes that remove manual interventions across billing, compliance, reporting, and controls.
• Developing automations and leveraging LLM tools to supplant error-prone tasks in NetSuite, Ramp, and other finance platforms.
• Creating scalable, audit-ready financial reports across diverse educational business lines.
• Continuously reimagining and enhancing finance infrastructure to support billion-dollar business units without increasing headcount.

What You Won't Be Doing

• Managing a large team of finance personnel; this role is focused on systems, not people.
• Overseeing month-end close cycles or manually approving transactions.
• Accepting current ERP workflows as sufficient; you'll identify inefficiencies and eliminate them.
• Delegating tasks considered "dirty work" to junior staff; you'll lead by example.
• Working in a stable environment; this is about rapid scaling, not routine maintenance.

Global Finance Director Key Responsibilities

Create a fully autonomous, AI-driven finance system capable of supporting multiple billion-dollar education ventures without manual intervention.

Basic Requirements

• CPA, ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CFA, or MBA.
• Experience in finance or accounting roles at a business valued at $100M or more.
• 5+ years as an auditor at a top 10 global firm, or equivalent experience being audited by one.
• Professional experience with enterprise ERP systems such as NetSuite or SAP.
• Experience using generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini professionally.
• Must reside within UTC-8 to UTC+3 time zones.

Nice-to-have Requirements

• Knowledge of K-12 education models in the U.S., including private, charter, and ESA programs.
• Experience in developing finance automation or AI-driven workflows from the ground up.
• Familiarity with finance operations in multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction businesses.
