Magnum is in active growth mode — expanding both organically and through acquisition — and we're looking for a CFO who wants to build, not just maintain, the financial engine behind it. Daily command of cash flow is central to the role: with hundreds of concurrent projects and the working-capital demands of a fast-growing subcontractor, leadership needs a current, reliable view of liquidity every day to move with confidence. This is a value-creation seat, not a back-office one. You'll modernize our reporting and systems, protect and grow bonding capacity to chase larger work, and sit at the table on pricing, capital allocation, and expansion decisions. In your first 12-18 months, success looks like: Reliable daily cash-flow reporting and a rolling forecast leadership trusts to drive decisions. A clean, timely monthly close with dependable division-level P&L and WIP visibility. Expanded surety capacity beyond the current $8M single / $13M aggregate to support larger pursuits. Our Foundation, Procore, busybusy, and Clearstory stack working together for real-time job-cost and change-order visibility. A scaled, capable finance team with the controls to support the next phase of growth. You'll report jointly to the President and CEO, partnering closely with division leaders as a core member of the executive team.

Why a Specialty Subcontractor Is Different We want a CFO who has lived the subcontractor's position in the payment chain — not just the GC's.

That means fluency with:

Retention management and the sustained working-capital drag of being held 5-10% for extended periods Pay-when-paid / pay-if-paid contract exposure and how it flows into cash forecasting Change-order financial discipline and rigorous cost-to-complete tracking AIA-style billing (schedule of values, G702/G703) and over/under-billings analysis Lower-tier sub risk , where any scope is passed down Cash and risk look different from where we sit, and we're hiring someone who already understands that.
