About You

You don't wait to be told what to do — you see what needs to happen and you make it happen. You thrive under pressure, move with urgency, and hold yourself to a standard most people can't keep up with. You're the kind of financial leader who can juggle a complex portfolio of clients without dropping the ball, because you're disciplined, detail-oriented, and fiercely self-motivated.

You've built your career by taking ownership — not just of the numbers, but of the outcomes. You're confident in the room, decisive in the moment, and you don't shy away from hard conversations. You set the pace, and others follow.

The Role

You'll operate with autonomy and confidence, backed by a solid infrastructure of systems, processes, and a team that's in your corner. You set the direction, build the roadmap, and drive the results. You'll draw on deep experience in accounting and finance to deliver sharp insights that move the needle on both top and bottom-line performance.

You'll have a strong team of accountants and analysts behind you — so you can stay in your lane: forward-looking, strategic, and high-impact.

We prefer (but don't require) candidates who:

  • Are in Central Texas, or can easily access a major airport
  • Have experience in fractional or multi-client consulting roles
  • Have been the CFO (or similar title) of a company above $30M in revenue.
Responsibilities
  • Take charge of client relationships built on credibility, directness, and trust
  • Drive the development of business and personal financial goals — then build and execute the plan to get there
  • Hold clients accountable, challenge their assumptions, and deliver hard truths with confidence and respect
  • Prepare and present financial reports, analysis, and forecasts with precision and clarity
  • Move fast on high-impact decisions — securing credit lines, restructuring operations, deploying new systems — without getting lost in the weeds
  • Identify problems before they become crises and bring solutions, not just observations
  • Take initiative on business development and actively create new opportunities for the firm
Qualifications

We care more about what you've done and how you operate than where you went to school.

You bring:

  • 10+ years of experience in fast-moving, high-growth environments — Controller, VP of Finance, CFO, or equivalent
  • A high tolerance for ambiguity and the composure to perform under pressure
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities without losing accuracy or momentum
  • Mastery of financial modeling, reporting, and connecting operational drivers to financial performance
  • Confidence presenting P&Ls, Balance Sheets, Cash Flow Statements, and complex analysis to any audience
  • Advanced Excel skills and fluency with cloud-based tools and AI

You are:

  • Independent — you don't need to be managed, you need to be trusted
  • Urgent — you treat every client's business like it matters, because it does
  • Detail-oriented — nothing slips past you
  • Decisive — you make the call and own the outcome
  • Resilient — pressure doesn't rattle you, it sharpens you
Pay & Benefits

We're open to full-time applicants. Compensation ranges from $200,000 – $280,000 (or part-time equivalent), based on your experience and track record. There is significant room for growth and leadership as the firm scales.

  • 401K with matching
  • Home office setup stipend
  • Flexible hours
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Remote / WFH
  • Medical benefits
  • High-growth, entrepreneurial culture
  • A seat at the table — not a number on a spreadsheet
Who We Are

Prosper CFO is redefining how the finance function operates. We're not doing things the old way. We're innovating the service model itself — and we're looking for leaders who want to be part of something that actually transforms businesses and the people running them.
