About The Position

The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) is a key leadership role responsible for overseeing RK Pharma’s financial operations, strategy, and controls. This position partners closely with senior leadership to ensure the company remains financially disciplined, operationally efficient, and positioned for steady growth. This role is intentionally suited for someone who may be stepping into the CFO seat for the first time — for example, a Controller or senior finance leader with strong pharmaceutical experience who is ready to expand scope and influence. This is not a purely strategic or advisory role. The CFO at RK Pharma is expected to be hands-on, deeply familiar with the numbers, and comfortable working in a scrappy, growing environment where systems continue to mature.

• Experience leading accounting or finance functions (for example, Controller or Senior Finance Manager)

• Hands-on leadership style with strong attention to detail
• Ability to translate financial data into practical business decision, presentations for M&A, and PE boards.

Nice To Haves

• Experience supporting GMP manufacturing operations

Responsibilities
