Chief Financial Officer

MHC • Burnsville, MN

19d • Remote

About The Position

MHC is seeking an operationally strong, commercially minded CFO to serve as a true business partner to the CEO and go-to-market leadership. This role is pivotal for leading the next phase of growth for a durable, profitable, PE-backed SaaS business. The CFO will own the full financial engine of the company, including planning, reporting, capital allocation, and value creation, while staying close to how the business runs. The ideal candidate understands recurring revenue and unit economics, has experience in a business transformation or turnaround, and leads through influence. This role requires conviction and a long-term commitment to building MHC’s next chapter.

Requirements

• Proven Finance Leader in PE-Backed SaaS
• Finance leadership inside a $25M–$100M SaaS company under private equity ownership, with fluency in PE reporting rhythms, board dynamics, and value-creation planning.
• A track record of tenure and commitment: a pattern of 5+ year runs.
• A pattern of internal progression within a single company (e.g., moving from a regional or business-unit finance leadership role into the CFO seat).
• Deep, hands-on experience managing financials, performance, and budgeting at the unit level across a multi-product portfolio: product-line and customer-segment growth and profitability, with the modeling discipline to make those views actionable.
• Direct experience in a transformation or turnaround situation, having helped reset a cost structure, re-underwrite a plan, or reposition a business.
• M&A experience spanning both sides of the deal lifecycle: financial and business due diligence and post-close integration, including how the operating model changes after close.
• Pattern recognition from having lived through this stage of company before: what breaks as a SaaS business scales past $50–100M under PE ownership, what a real turnaround requires operationally and culturally, and how to integrate an acquisition without losing momentum.
• A genuine commercial and growth orientation, having partnered closely with sales and marketing leadership on pricing, go-to-market economics, pipeline health, and growth investment tradeoffs.
• Excited about being very close to commercial discussions, contract negotiations, and deal desk activities; used to working with and for sales, not against them.
• Fluent in the mechanics of recurring revenue and unit economics from the inside, not just as reporting outputs, but as levers of the business.
• A technical foundation earned either in public accounting/audit or through several years of FP&A and forecasting rigor at a single company, followed by broader financial leadership responsibility, pairing credibility on the numbers with real commercial judgment.
• Operational by instinct: wants to be close to how the business runs, not just close to the ledger.
• Direct, grounded, and low-ego, bringing rigor without bureaucracy.
• Genuinely motivated by building and leading teams; invests in developing people, not just managing headcount.
• Leads extensively through influence rather than authority and buys into MHC’s purpose enough to act as a cultural ambassador for it.
• Enthusiastic and motivating, bringing energy that lifts the people around them, not just analytical horsepower.
• Candidates must be based in the United States.

Nice To Haves

• Direct exposure to the Customer Communications Management (CCM), document automation, or adjacent enterprise / content management software space is a strong plus.
• Experience serving enterprise and mid-market B2B SaaS customers in regulated industries (financial services, insurance, healthcare, government).

Responsibilities

• Serve as a strategic thought partner to the CEO and leadership team, translating complex financial and operational issues into actionable terms for non-finance stakeholders.
• Own the full finance function (FP&A, accounting and controllership, treasury, and corporate development), building it into a rigorous, disciplined engine that scales with the business.
• Lead the annual planning, forecasting, and value-creation process in partnership with the CEO, the board, and PE ownership.
• Partner closely with sales and marketing leadership on pricing, go-to-market economics, pipeline health, and growth investment tradeoffs.
• Sit close to commercial discussions, contract negotiations, and deal desk activity, bringing financial discipline to how deals are shaped and closed.
• Manage financials, performance, and budgeting at the unit level across a multi-product portfolio, driving product-line and customer-segment growth and profitability.
• Help reset cost structure, re-underwrite the plan, or reposition the business where needed, driving transformation.
• Lead M&A across the full deal lifecycle: financial and business due diligence, deal structuring, and post-close integration.
• Own the capital structure, cash management, and investment discipline required to fund growth while protecting profitability.
• Build, develop, and retain a high-performing finance team, investing in people rather than just managing headcount.
• Serve as a key member of the senior leadership team, contributing to company-wide strategy.
• Act as a cultural ambassador for MHC’s purpose, leading extensively through influence and bringing energy that lifts the people around them.
