Title: Chief Financial Officer
Company: Finatal
Location: United States
PE-Backed CFO – Multi-site
Finatal has been exclusively retained by a private equity sponsor to appoint a Chief Financial Officer for a newly formed, PE-backed multi-site platform within a well-established brand.
This is a ground-floor CFO opportunity. The business has completed an initial acquisition of 3 sites
and a clearly defined growth plan spanning new development and targeted M&A, with and a long-term ambition of 50 locations.
You will partner directly with the CEO and sponsor to build the business from day one, initially as the sole finance leader, and design the financial, operational, and reporting infrastructure required to scale a multi-site, real-estate-intensive platform.
The strategy is concentrated in high-growth, undersupplied markets, where demographic trends and government funding dynamics support strong demand.
This role is best suited for a hands-on PE CFO who wants real ownership, influence, and the opportunity to build a finance function.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the first finance hire and core partner to the CEO in launching the platform
- Professionalize finance, reporting, controls, and KPIs from a standing start
- Lead financial underwriting for new site development, acquisitions, and real estate decisions
- Drive M&A execution and integration across franchise acquisitions
- Build PE-grade reporting, forecasting, and board materials
- Scale the finance organization over time as the platform grows
Requirements:
- Proven experience in PE-backed, multi-site businesses (required)
- Strong M&A and real estate experience (required)
- Background in multi-site businesses: franchise, education services, healthcare, behavioral health, or consumer services is a plus
- Exit experience is advantageous, but not required
- Remote role with travel to new and existing sites
