Job Description

About the Opportunity:

A high-growth, multi-channel hospitality brand rooted in fast casual dining and expanding rapidly into consumer packaged goods (CPG) is seeking a strategic, hands-on Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This confidential search is ideal for a financially savvy executive with dual expertise in the restaurant and CPG industries—someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-complexity operational environment.

We’re at an inflection point, evolving from a strong regional presence to a nationally scaled brand. This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of a beloved food concept as it doubles in revenue and scales new distribution channels.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead all aspects of financial strategy, FP&A, budgeting, and forecasting across multi-channel operations
  • Build scalable systems to support rapid revenue growth and margin optimization
  • Oversee a finance team of 6, including 3 direct reports and a seasoned Controller
  • Own financial reporting and communication with the CEO, Board, and investors
  • Serve as a key thought partner on pricing, inventory, unit economics, supply chain strategy, and expansion planning
  • Support growth of the CPG vertical with rigorous cost modeling and sales analytics
  • Ensure compliance and strengthen financial controls and risk management practices

Ideal Candidate Profile:

  • 10+ years in finance leadership roles, with at least 3 years as CFO or SVP/VP in a restaurant + CPG environment
  • A track record of scaling multi-unit, omni-channel businesses
  • Highly analytical, yet deeply collaborative – you drive strategy and get in the weeds
  • Experience working with private equity or high-growth investor-backed companies is a plus
  • CPA or MBA preferred, but not required

What’s In It for You:

  • 💰 Base salary ~$250K (negotiable for the right person)
  • 🎯 Bonus potential of 30%+, based on performance
  • 💎 Equity and long-term incentives available
  • 🌍 Relocation support provided
  • 🏥 Full benefits package
  • 🚀 Front-row seat to a company doubling in size and diversifying across channels

For immediate consideration, apply with an UPDATED resume!
