The role oversees core finance functions, including accounts payable and receivable, general ledger, payroll, fixed assets, and financial analysis. Responsibilities include managing operating and capital budgets, forecasting, financial modeling, long-range planning, financial reporting, regulatory compliance, grant funding and allocation, and audit readiness. The CFO will strengthen internal controls and financial processes, advise executive leadership and the board on financial performance and risk, and build and develop the finance team. Candidates should bring strong CFO-level leadership experience and an analytical, numbers-focused approach, with expertise in budgeting, forecasting, cash management, and financial planning.

Transportation or public-sector finance experience is preferred, while a CPA, MBA, or CMA is an asset.
