Job description

Interim CFO

We're partnering with a PE-backed, tech-enabled healthcare services organization for an Interim CFO to provide leadership and continuity while the company conducts a search for its permanent CFO.

This is an ideal opportunity for a seasoned CFO who can step into an established finance organization, quickly build relationships with the CEO and ownership group, and provide stability during a leadership transition.

This is not a turnaround or transformation role. The finance team is established and strong, and the focus will be on leading the existing organization and maintaining continuity.

What You'll Do As Interim CFO:

• Provide executive leadership and oversight of the finance organization
• Partner closely with the CEO, ownership group, and senior leadership team
• Lead and support an established, high-performing finance team
• Provide continuity across financial reporting, planning, analysis, and core finance activities
• Oversee financial operations and ensure appropriate financial discipline and execution
• Support the transition of responsibilities from the current CFO
• Serve as a trusted financial advisor to the CEO and ownership group
• Help maintain momentum across key finance priorities while the permanent CFO search is underway
• Provide hands-on leadership and guidance as needed without unnecessarily disrupting the existing organization

What We're Looking For:

• Seasoned CFO or senior finance executive with prior CFO experience
• Experience in healthcare services and/or tech-enabled healthcare strongly preferred
• Experience operating in a PE-backed environment is a plus
• Complex revenue recognition experience is highly desirable
• Strong executive presence and communication skills
• Ability to quickly step into an established organization and earn the confidence of the team
• Comfortable partnering with CEOs, boards, and ownership groups
• Strong leadership skills with a practical, hands-on approach
• Comfortable taking on an interim assignment of approximately 3 months, with potential to extend
• Tempe/Phoenix-area candidates preferred, though remote candidates will be considered for the right fit

Why This Role?

• Opportunity to step into a meaningful CFO leadership role with an established organization
• Strong, experienced finance team already in place
• Direct partnership with the CEO and ownership group
• Ability to make an immediate impact without taking on a turnaround or transformation mandate
• Approximately 3-month initial assignment with potential for extension
• Opportunity to provide critical leadership and continuity during an important executive transition
