POSITION SUMMARY

The Business Manager is a senior leadership role responsible for the financial, operational, and administrative health of the organization. This role serves as a strategic partner to the President while also maintaining hands-on responsibility for accounting, project contracting and budgeting, human resources, and internal systems.

Main Responsibilities:

• Financial Operations and Accounting
• Project Contracting, Revenue and Budget Management
• Strategic and Executive Partnership
• Human Resources and Compliance
• Operations, Systems and Controls
• Team Leadership

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field (CPA or MBA a plus).
• 8–12+ years of progressive experience in finance, accounting, operations, or business management.
• Advanced working knowledge of QuickBooks and strong aptitude for accounting systems and financial reporting.
• Experience with project-based accounting, client invoicing, and revenue tracking strongly preferred.
• Proven experience in HR administration, benefits, and compliance.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple functional areas simultaneously, set priorities independently, and shift between strategic planning and detailed execution.
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable in a role that requires both ownership and adaptability.
• AI tool implementation and experience a plus

This is a family friendly environment with excellent quality of life and flexibilty. Generous hybrid schedule after a ramp up/training period.
