CFO/Finance Manager

Description

* Company Description: Boomerang is leading the search for a position at an architecture and project development firm with over 15 years of experience. Although the company has become established in the market, it maintains an agile, dynamic culture highly oriented toward a startup spirit—featuring lean structures, high autonomy, and fast decision-making. The organization has grown organically and is now seeking to strengthen its finance function by incorporating a permanent professional who can lead, structure, and professionalize this area. * Position Description The company seeks a highly operational CFO/Finance Manager (“hands-on”), capable of combining daily accounting tasks with a broader strategic financial vision. This role will fill the critical gap currently existing between operational accounting and the executive level (CEO and Board). The selected candidate will be responsible for structuring processes, leading the first line of finance, establishing decision-making criteria, and ensuring robust, recurring financial control. This is not a traditional CFO role suited to large, hierarchical organizations; rather, it calls for a hybrid profile: someone with a solid accounting foundation, sound financial judgment, business acumen, and willingness to dive into operational detail when needed—without losing strategic perspective. * Key Responsibilities: * Financial, Accounting, and Tax Management * Supervise and coordinate the work of the internal accountant and external advisory firm. * Ensure rigorous and timely monthly, quarterly, and annual closings. Review and guarantee accurate accounting treatment of complex and multi-entity transactions. * Prepare financial statements, cash flow reports, monthly reporting for the CEO, and quarterly documents for the Board. * Ensure compliance with tax, legal, and corporate obligations. * Financial Planning and Control: * Implement order, clear processes, and consistent standards within the finance function. * Develop economic models and analyses to support decision-making. * Maintain strategic vision while retaining the ability to assume operational responsibilities as required on a day-to-day basis. * Propose improvements in control, efficiency, and management tools. * Corporate Structures and Investments: * Analyze corporate structures involving multiple related entities. * Support evaluation of investment opportunities and development of new business lines (e.g., self-promotion, investment projects). * Prepare financial models, profitability analyses, and scenario assessments. * Relationship with Executive Management and Governance Bodies: * Report monthly to the CEO on the business’s financial status. * Present reliable, structured, and comprehensible information quarterly to the Board. * Serve as the internal financial reference point, conveying judgment and vision. Desired Skills and Knowledge: \* Experience \- 8–10 years of experience in advanced finance or accounting roles. \- Solid background in accounting, with comfort working at the operational detail level. \- Additional experience in finance, analysis, economic modeling, or planning (though not necessarily the primary focus). \- Valuable experience in environments involving multiple companies or complex corporate structures. \- Experience providing financial judgment to executive management and/or delivering board-level reporting. \* Competencies: \- Ability to combine operational and strategic vision. \- Autonomous, solution-oriented, proactive, and organized profile. \- Habit of working in agile, changing, and informally structured environments. \- Excellent financial judgment and ability to justify decisions. \- “Hands-on” attitude: genuine willingness to perform operational tasks when necessary. \* Soft Skills: \- Energy, professional humility, and growth mindset. \- Ability to communicate clearly and directly. \- Adaptability to an established yet non-corporate startup culture.
