About the Company
A confidential Brydon Group portfolio company is building a modern software and billing platform for a targeted portion of the physical therapy ecosystem. Every day, physical, occupational, and speech therapists do some of the most meaningful work in healthcare, helping children build skills that shape the rest of their lives. Our job is to make that work easier, so clinicians can spend less time fighting paperwork and payers and more time with the kids and families who need them.

Role Overview
We are seeking an exceptional finance leader to join our executive team as Chief Financial Officer. Reporting to the CEO, you will shape financial strategy and build the infrastructure to support aggressive growth, programmatic M&A, and long-term value creation across multiple geographies. Recently formed through the acquisition of two legal entities, our organization needs a CFO to lead post-merger financial integration and establish best-in-class controllership.
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for both a strategic partner and a hands-on operator. You will work closely with the CEO, C-Suite, and Board to align financial priorities with growth initiatives.

- Evaluate and upgrade finance systems (e.g., NetSuite) to enable multi-currency consolidation, automation, and scalability.
- Serve as a trusted strategic advisor to the CEO and Board, and recruit, develop, and retain a high-performing finance team.
What success looks like; Within your first 12, you will have delivered:

- A modern finance platform (e.g., NetSuite) live and adopted, supporting consolidation and scale.
- A high-performing finance team in place, with identified M&A synergies captured and the function positioned to support continued growth and value creation.
Longer term:

- Build out set of fit-for-purpose finance partners (third parties, vendors, etc.) that can drive business decision-making through excellent reporting and analysis
