Tax Equity Professionals and Axess Energy are hiring a VP of Finance to own execution of all financial operations across two related companies in the residential solar tax equity space. This role is built for a finance leader who wants ownership over a real build, not maintenance of someone else's system. If you want to close messy books, design the process that should have existed from day one, and run a finance function with clear KPIs and real authority, this is that job.
THE MANDATE
Your first 90 days are defined before you start. Close the 2025 books by July 31, 2026. Build a repeatable month-end close process for both entities. Start job-level cost accounting from zero. Document the finance SOPs that do not currently exist. You report to the CFO. You manage the Staff Accountant and the Payroll Specialist. You are the execution layer between financial strategy and daily transactions. This role requires 5+ years of progressive finance experience, including multi-entity close and CPA licensure or equivalent credential. If you do not have that background, this role will not be a fit.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
- Month-end and year-end close for both entities
- Job-level cost accounting design and implementation
- Investor payment oversight and back-payment audit process
- Vendor payment oversight and reconciliation
- Intercompany transaction recording and reconciliation
- Finance SOP documentation for every core process
- Direct management of two finance team members
- Monthly financial reporting package for CFO review
REQUIRED
- CPA license or equivalent professional accounting credential
- Experience closing books for multiple entities simultaneously
- Hands-on QuickBooks and Ramp or comparable AP/AR platform experience
- Track record of building financial processes and SOPs in a company without mature financial infrastructure
- Experience managing direct reports while remaining a hands-on operator
- Strong written communication for async, distributed team coordination
PREFERRED
- Intercompany accounting across related entities
- Solar, real estate, or tax equity financial structures
- Job-level cost accounting implementation in a project-based business
- Experience managing offshore accounting team members
WHY THIS ROLE
You get a KPI scorecard with defined targets from day one, not a vague performance review cycle. You get direct access to the CFO and clear authority over your domain, documented in writing. You get two direct reports and the mandate to build them into a real team. The problems here are real and unsolved. If you want to inherit a polished machine, this is not that. If you want to build the machine and prove exactly how good you are at it, this is that.
HOW TO APPLY
Submit your resume with a short note, one paragraph, describing a specific time you closed books or built a financial process for a company that did not have one. Tell us what you found, what you built, and what it looked like when you were done. We are not reading cover letters. We are reading evidence. If you have the credentials above and you are ready to own a finance function instead of running someone else's version of it, we want to hear from you.
