Job Description

About Us

Ambassador Group is a boutique recruiting firm specializing in the construction industry, serving high-end and custom residential builders across the Bay Area. As a team of growth-minded operators, we’re scaling rapidly and building the internal infrastructure to match. We operate on EOS and are known for our high-integrity partnerships with clients, candidates, and each other.

About the Role

We’re seeking a Builder-Minded Strategic Finance Partner (Fractional CFO/Controller) to help us professionalize, automate, and scale our financial operations. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a fractional leader who can zoom out for strategy and zoom in to implement.

Reporting directly to our Managing Partner (Integrator), you'll bring financial clarity, structure, and foresight to our growth journey. You’ll work cross-functionally with leadership to mature our financial systems and empower decision-making with clean data, accurate forecasts, and strategic insight.

What You’ll Own

Financial Operations
  • Manage and improve AP, AR, payroll, and financial hygiene

  • Own commission tracking and performance-based compensation models

  • Lead and maintain monthly accrual closes

  • Oversee billing, invoicing, credits, and refunds workflows

Reporting & Analysis
  • Deliver clean, consistent Income, Cash Flow, Balance Sheet, and Capital Stack reports

  • Automate core reports and dashboards (Zapier, GSheets, QBO integrations)

  • Provide monthly budget vs actuals analysis with context and insights

  • Respond to ad hoc data/reporting requests from leadership

Forecasting & Strategic Finance
  • Build and maintain a 12–18 month rolling forecast

  • Model hiring, compensation, and cash runway scenarios

  • Advise on pricing, vendor strategy, capital planning, and margin health

  • Participate in quarterly planning + monthly leadership reviews

What We’re Looking For

Must-Haves
  • Proven experience as a fractional CFO/controller in early-stage or high-growth environments

  • Strong command of QuickBooks Online, Gusto, Google Sheets, and automation tools

  • Deep understanding of GAAP, accrual accounting, and financial modeling

  • Skilled at building clean, actionable reporting from limited data inputs

  • Strategic thinker who’s also willing to do the work

  • Prior experience with commission structures and hiring runway planning

Nice-to-Haves
  • Familiarity with Zapier, Qwilr, Stripe

  • Experience in recruiting, staffing, or professional services industries

  • Exposure to EOS / Traction systems and meeting cadences

Logistics

  • Remote, but must be aligned to Pacific Time

  • Estimated part-time (~20 hrs/month), flexible on distribution

  • Long-term contract with strong potential for deepening role and scope

Why Join Us?

We’re a values-aligned, founder-led team that’s ready to build for the next chapter. You’ll be stepping into a highly trusted position where your insight, structure, and discipline can shape the future of how we grow — and how we lead.

If you love clean books, scalable systems, high-trust founder collaboration, and getting credit for building smart things early — we’d love to talk.

Appendix: Roadmap

We're investing in a deeper, more proactive partnership (~20 hrs/month) and a clear phased path. Here's how we envision your evolving impact:

Phase 1: Stabilize & Clarify
  • Weekly cash flow snapshot + short-term forecast

  • Fully manage AP/AR and payroll oversight (Gusto, Stripe)

  • Monthly income + cash flow statements

  • Commission engine built in Sheets (or automated)

  • Clean QBO file with rules, tags, and smart categorization

Phase 2: Systemize & Forecast
  • Accrual closes (monthly cadence)

  • Automated or semi-automated reporting (Zapier, QBO, GSheets)

  • Rolling 12–18 month forecast (hiring, margin, ops scenarios)

  • Monthly budget vs actuals with trends and insights

  • Commission model improvements + variance tracking

Phase 3: Advise & Optimize
  • Strategic modeling (hiring runway, margin analysis, pricing scenarios)

  • Capital stack visibility and optimization

  • Tax planning and proactive strategies

  • Participation in monthly EOS/leadership pulse meetings

  • KPI dashboards and strategic reporting layer
