Strategic CFO (Contract, Remote) – Finance as a Service (FaaS)

Strategic CFO – Finance as a Service (FaaS) | GovConGrowth Companies

About ROSE

At ROSE Financial Solutions, we believe finance should not be a reporting function-it should be a strategic engine for growth.

We are on a mission to automate 85% of finance and accounting by 2030, transforming the back office into a proactive, decision-ready function that empowers leaders to scale with confidence.

The Opportunity

We are seeking experienced CFOs who want to move beyond traditional roles and become strategic leaders in a next-generation finance model.

This is not a typical fractional CFO role.

You will:

  • Help clients become decision-ready, audit-ready, and scale-ready
  • Build financial infrastructure, not just reports
  • Leverage AI and technology (Easby) to transform finance functions
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to CEOs and executive teams

What You'll Do

  • Act as a strategic CFO partner to multiple growth-stage organizations
  • Lead financial strategy, forecasting, and performance optimization
  • Design and implement scalable financial infrastructure
  • Ensure DCAA, FAR, and regulatory compliance (GovCon focus)
  • Drive data-driven decision-making and KPI visibility
  • Integrate technology, automation, and AI into finance workflows
  • Support M&A, capital raises, and strategic growth initiatives
  • Mentor controllers, accounting teams, and client stakeholders

What Makes This Role Different

At ROSE, you won't just:

  • Close books
  • Review reports
  • Fix problems

You will:

  • Build systems that eliminate those problems permanently
  • Help clients scale from $2M $50M+ with confidence
  • Be part of the transformation of the finance industry

Who You Are

  • Former CFO or senior finance leader (10–20+ years experience)
  • Strong background in GovCon, compliance, or regulated industries (preferred)
  • Deep expertise in financial modeling, FP&A, and strategic finance
  • Passionate about technology, automation, and innovation in finance
  • Able to communicate with and influence CEOs and executive teams
  • Excited by building-not just advising

Why ROSE

  • Work with high-growth companies and mission-driven leaders
  • Be part of a firm redefining finance through FaaS + AI
  • Collaborate with a team of experts across accounting, tax, and compliance
  • Flexible structure with meaningful impact on every client

Call to Action

  • If you want to move from reactive finance to building the future of finance-apply now.
