Location: United States
Salary: $100,000 – $125,000

About the Opportunity

We are supporting a fast-growing company in the food and health industry with a confidential search for a Director of Finance.

Reporting directly to the incoming CEO of North America, this is a high-impact role designed for an experienced finance leader who can serve as a strategic right hand, trusted advisor, and operational partner.

This is not a back-office position - it requires someone with a commercial mindset, the ability to read contracts, assess risks, and engage in strategy, while also being willing to roll up their sleeves with invoicing, tracking shipments, and handling day-to-day financials.

As the business grows, this individual will play a key role in building and leading the finance function for North America.

The Role

• Partner directly with the CEO of North America on financial strategy, planning, and execution.
• Manage all financial operations including accounting, reporting, invoicing, and risk oversight.
• Review, interpret, and advise on contracts and commercial agreements.
• Track and oversee the financial aspects of physical goods coordination, including shipments and logistics.
• Ensure compliance with best practices and company standards in finance and operations.
• Support HR-related finance functions and ensure smooth payroll and compliance processes.
• Identify and flag risks, opportunities, and improvements across the business.
• Prepare the company for growth, including building out and leading a finance team in the future.

Skills & Experience

• Proven experience in a senior finance leadership role (Director, Controller, or Head of Finance).
• Strong commercial acumen with experience reviewing contracts, agreements, and business risks.
• Background in food or consumer goods industries preferred.
• Experience in both hands-on finance management (invoicing, reporting, payroll) and strategic advisory.
• Knowledge of logistics, shipments, and the financial tracking of physical goods is a strong plus.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to work closely with senior leadership.
• Business development experience or strong industry connections would be highly advantageous.
