THE CHANCE

This role sits at the center of a global, multi‑entity family office structure, supporting a diverse portfolio of operating companies and investments.

As VP of Finance, you will lead financial planning and analysis across the portfolio, building a forward‑looking, data‑driven finance function that enables effective decision‑making, capital allocation, and long‑term growth.

This is a hands‑on leadership role for a finance operator who can balance strategic FP&A with the discipline required to operate across a global portfolio. Experience supporting CPG or consumer businesses is important, particularly in understanding margin, inventory, and growth dynamics.

You will:

• Lead budgeting, forecasting, and long‑range planning across multiple entities and business units

• Contribute to investor readiness and long‑term strategic planning
