We place experienced CFOs with mid-market construction companies that need senior financial leadership but aren't ready for a full-time hire. Our work is built on trust, business judgment, and genuinely caring about the people and businesses we serve. We're a faith-driven firm — that shapes how we treat clients, how we work together, and the kind of team we're building. We're a small team (six today, scaling to thirty-plus over the next few years) with big ambitions and a high bar for who joins us. We're hiring our first dedicated Talent Acquisition & People Operations Manager to help us scale intentionally. This is a working role with two equally important sides: On one side: active hunting. You'll spend real hours every week on outbound sourcing of senior CFOs and finance leaders — building and warming a bench of passive executive talent so we can move fast when client seats open.

On the other side:

operational ownership. You'll own our ATS, our candidate experience, our interview coordination, and our onboarding process from offer-accepted through day 100. Today these things are spread across ownership and the broader team — and not done as well as they should be. You'll own them. This isn't a strategic seat looking down on the work. It's a hands-on seat where you do the work, build the systems, and grow into broader scope as the firm grows. Culture Civil CFO is a faith-driven company. You don't have to share our faith to work here, but our values are an explicit part of how we operate, hire, and serve clients. Our team is small, direct, and high-trust. We expect people to take ownership, give honest feedback, and bring real judgment to their work. Location and Schedule Hybrid, based in Dallas. Expect 2-3 days per week in our office, with flexibility for the rest. Occasional travel for executive meetings and industry events.
