The CFO will be a key member of the executive leadership team, working closely with the President to strengthen institutional planning, and support the university's growth and innovation. This includes overseeing all budgeting, accounting, financial analysis, and reporting functions, ensuring compliance with GAAP and IRS regulations, and developing policies to support the university's financial operations.
