Job Description
Director of Finance Middle Market Private Equity | Confidential Opportunity We are partnering with a highly active middle market private equity firm that is continuing to scale its portfolio of operating companies. The firm takes a hands-on approach to value creation and is looking to bring on a Director of Finance to support one of its priority investments. This is a high-visibility role with direct interaction across executive leadership and the private equity sponsors. The Director of Finance will own the finance function end-to-end, with responsibility across financial reporting, planning and analysis, and cash flow management. This is not a back-office role. You will be expected to operate in the details while also helping drive strategic decisions, improve performance, and build infrastructure that supports growth. This opportunity is well-suited for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, private equity-backed environment and enjoys building, improving, and owning processes. The role offers a strong blend of hands-on execution and strategic exposure, including involvement in key initiatives such as forecasting, operational improvement, and potential M&A activity. From a career perspective, this is a true platform role with a clear path toward a future CFO or VP Finance seat. The firm is well-capitalized, actively deploying capital, and offers the chance to be directly involved in scaling a business and creating measurable value. Key Requirements 8-12+ years of experience in accounting and finance Background in public accounting, private equity, or PE-backed environments preferred CPA strongly preferred Proven ability to operate both strategically and hands-on Strong communication skills and experience working with senior stakeholders If you are open to exploring a role with real ownership, visibility, and long-term upside, I would welcome a confidential conversation. #PrivateEquity #FinanceJobs #DirectorOfFinance #PEBacked #FPandA #AccountingCareers #CharlotteJobs #LeadershipOpportunities #HiringNow #FinanceLeadership
