Group Finance Director   $400,000 USD/year

Description

What if you could revolutionize financial operations by making humans optional? Welcome to the future of educational finance, where AI meets ambition.

We're not just looking for a Group Finance Director – we're seeking a visionary architect who can transform traditional finance into an AI-powered masterpiece. At Trilogy, we're building an education empire, and we need someone who can create a financial ecosystem that runs like a Swiss watch – precise, reliable, and remarkably autonomous.

If you're the kind of financial expert who sees spreadsheets as sculptures waiting to be carved, and manual processes as opportunities for automation, you're speaking our language. This isn't about maintaining the status quo – it's about demolishing it and building something extraordinary in its place.

Think of this as your chance to write the playbook for how billion-dollar education ventures should operate financially in the AI age. No bureaucracy, no unnecessary headcount, just pure, elegant efficiency.

Are you ready to turn financial operations into a symphony of automation? Your canvas awaits.

What you will be doing

  • Orchestrate a revolution in financial processes by weaponizing AI to eliminate human intervention in billing, reporting, and compliance
  • Transform NetSuite, Ramp, and other systems into a seamless, AI-enhanced ecosystem that runs on autopilot
  • Design and implement bulletproof systems for handling tuition, ESA payments, and tax documentation that scale effortlessly
  • Create a financial reporting infrastructure so robust it can handle multiple education ventures without breaking a sweat
  • Engineer financial systems that laugh in the face of traditional scaling limitations, supporting billion-dollar operations without bloating the team

What you will NOT be doing

  • Playing traditional finance director – we're not building an army of accountants
  • Getting bogged down in routine month-end procedures or transaction approvals
  • Accepting mediocrity in any form – if a process can be automated, it will be
  • Managing from the sidelines – you'll be in the trenches, leading the automation charge
  • Maintaining the status quo – we're building for hypergrowth, not steady-state operations

Key responsibilities

Build and deploy an AI-powered financial ecosystem capable of autonomously managing multiple billion-dollar education ventures with zero human intervention required.

Candidate requirements

  • Professional certification in finance (CPA, ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CFA, or MBA)
  • Battle-tested experience in $100M+ business finance operations
  • Deep understanding of audit processes (either 5+ years at a top 10 firm or equivalent experience being audited)
  • Mastery of enterprise ERP systems like NetSuite or SAP
  • Proven track record of leveraging generative AI tools in professional finance settings
  • Your time zone must fall between UTC-8 and UTC+3

Nice to have

  • Inside knowledge of U.S. K-12 education landscape (private, charter, ESA programs)
  • Track record of building AI-enhanced finance automation systems
  • Experience navigating complex multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction financial environments
