Description

Financial Leadership Partner (CFO Level Consultant) - The Herring Group Remote (TX, GA· ~ Hourly 30 -35 hrs./week during business hours)

Most people will not read this thoroughly or will think it is too good to be true.

What we believe

The Herring Group is a professional services and data analytics firm. We work with owners of landscape companies who have built something real and want to keep it — without being crushed by it.

We optimize two margins, not one.

• Profit margin. We put our clients on a disciplined Path to 12% profitability. Most landscape businesses run at 3–7%. The solution is not a mystery; it is a system. We build the system.
• Life margin. If the owner cannot take a three-week vacation without the business wobbling, we have not done our job. Profit that requires the owner's presence to operate is not profit — it is a salary with extra steps.

These margins are not separate goals. They reinforce each other. A business that cannot give its owner a life cannot give its employees one either, and neither carries 12% for long.

Autonomy and accountability. We help our clients build teams that think, decide, and own outcomes.

What you would actually do

• Hold a portfolio of SMB clients (companies with $3M–$50M in revenue) as their outsourced financial leader. Own the models, forecasts, dashboards, and KPIs that leadership actually uses — not the ones that live in a forgotten folder. Help owners and management teams every month translate numbers into decisions.
• Push them on pricing they have been afraid to raise, labor efficiency they have been afraid to measure, and margin they did not know was leaking.
• Help us get sharper, too. Every client engagement is a chance to improve our methodology, our delivery, and our tools so the next client benefits from everything we have learned on this one.

Who this is for

• You have done this work for 10–20 years, with titles like CFO, Controller, FP&A Director,  Principal Consultant, or Business Owner.  You have worked inside SMBs, not just for them — you know what the owner is actually worried about at 5:47 a.m.
• You can build a model in your sleep, but models are not what you are most proud of. You arere proud of a conversation that changed a decision that changed a company.
• You think like a business owner.
• You find ~30 – 35 focused hours a week more appealing than 50 unfocused ones, and you would rather be paid for results than seat time.
• You want work that is meaningful, interesting and challenging with a high degree of autonomy.

Who does not fit

• Anyone who wants a W-2 with a ladder to climb. We measure personal success by client success.
• Anyone who wants to build the model and hand it off. We stay in the room.
• Anyone who thinks "mission-driven" is marketing copy.  We believe it.
