  • Forecast current fiscal year results based on actuals and trends, as well as create and update multi-year forecasts that analyze the most likely impact of high level scenarios such as service growth, reimbursement and expense changes, and other factors.
  • Manage the agency's cash reserves and assets, ensuring that we meet seasonal cash flow needs, capital budgeting and project prioritization, and investment portfolios.
  • Work closely with our small administrative team and our outsourced vendor partners who provide bookkeeping, billing, IT, phone and equipment supports.

  • Excellent interpersonal skills, including communication, active listening, and collaborative problem-solving. Demonstrated ability to build trust and partnership with non-financial leaders, coaching them toward greater financial fluency rather than enforcing compliance through fear.
  • Sound judgment and discretion; conducts all dealings with a high degree of integrity and authenticity, as a senior leader of the agency. Ability to be a thoughtful and active partner for the Executive Director, the agency leadership teams, and the Board of Directors.
  • Excellent strategic, analytical, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate financial data into actionable insight for non-financial audiences.
