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 at a pivotal inflection point for MHC. The mandate is broad: 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. This role requires an understanding of recurring revenue and unit economics, experience in transformation or turnaround situations, and the ability to lead through influence. The CFO will bring 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.
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.
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.
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.
Enthusiastic and motivating, bringing energy that lifts the people around them, not just analytical horsepower.
Candidates must be based in the United States.
This role is not eligible for visa sponsorship.

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).

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.

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.
