United Way's financial picture is genuinely complex: Restricted and unrestricted funds with fundamentally different stories, coming from federal, state, and municipal grants and workplace campaign pledges. The right person to serve as our next Chief Financial Officer (CFO) should see our complexity as interesting and serve as a true thought-partner to our President & CEO, Board of Directors, and Finance Committee.
Our CFO should provide clear, confident analysis—not just data delivery. They should explain what the numbers mean, flag what’s coming before it arrives, and help us make decisions with financial clarity rather than financial anxiety. This role also carries senior accountability for human resources, overseeing its delivery.
