The org's own posting, as writtenAbout Us
Social Finance is a national nonprofit and registered investment adviser expanding economic opportunity in America. We bring government, philanthropy, and business leaders together to improve systems and put capital to work in new ways. Since our founding in 2011, we have mobilized more than $500 million to create measurable results in workforce and education, health, and housing. We are driven by the belief that social and economic systems should enable all people to thrive, and the conviction that we can create the most meaningful and measurable change in our communities when governments and markets work together.
Our organization is built upon five core values: people, performance, integrity, collaboration, and inclusion. Our work spans four areas: Impact-first Investing, Workforce and Education Investments, Advisory & Public Sector Practice, and the Social Finance Institute. Our Impact-first Investment team designs, launches, and manages investments that provide solutions for effectively deploying impact capital across a range of social outcomes. Our Workforce and Education Investments team designs, launches and manages financial solutions focused on addressing workforce challenges, including skills acquisition and training access.
Our Advisory team partners with government and philanthropy leaders to implement data-driven programs for advancing social impact. And through the Social Finance Institute, we aim to build the field and change systems through actionable research, communities of practice, and educational outreach.
The Opportunity
The Corporate Controller is the senior accounting leader at Social Finance and the Chief Financial Officer’s closest partner in running the corporate finance function. You will own the integrity of our financial reporting, and you will lead the planning, budgeting, and analysis work that shapes how the organization deploys its resources. This role is built for someone who has a strong technical accounting foundation and now wants to spend a substantial share of their time strategically leading and planning: building the budget, running the forecast, modeling scenarios, leading a team, and helping business and operational leaders make sharper decisions with better information.
You will lead and manage a team of 4, oversee an annual operating budget of approximately $30 million across multiple entities and active donations and grants, recoverable grants, government awards, and sit on the firm’s Management Team. It is a good fit for candidates who want to apply accounting and finance expertise in a mission driven setting, and who are equally comfortable setting direction and getting the details right.
