Reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Trustees, the CFO is responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable federal and state regulations governing nonprofit and assisted living operations, including adherence to nonprofit financial reporting standards. The CFO will maintain the integrity and accuracy of financial records, support audit processes, and ensure timely, transparent reporting to the Board and external stakeholders.

In addition, the CFO will play a key role in overseeing financial aspects of fundraising initiatives, grant management, and donor-restricted funds, ensuring proper tracking, reporting, and stewardship of all contributed revenue. The role will also maintain strong relationships with auditors, financial institutions, and community partners.
