Description

Chief Financial Officer (CFO)
For experienced leaders who still have something valuable to contribute

Worksite: Huntsville, AL
Pay: $250K – $275K
Employment Type: Full-Time

This isn't a role for someone chasing the next rung on the ladder. It's for someone who has already reached the top and wants to keep doing meaningful work. If you've put in 10+ years in senior financial leadership and you're ready for a position where your expertise is actually leveraged - rather than worked around - this may be worth your time.

Trident is a security and strategic services firm. We aren't a bloated bureaucracy. Many of our people come from defense, government, or law enforcement backgrounds - and they take their work seriously. The CFO position here isn't ceremonial. You'll partner directly with the CEO, and your input will genuinely influence how the business operates.

Your Core Focus:

  • Shaping financial strategy shoulder-to-shoulder with leadership (not merely reporting on it)
  • Overseeing budgets, forecasting, and cash flow management
  • Advising on growth initiatives, partnership opportunities, and M&A activity
  • Providing structure and mentorship to a finance team still in growth mode

Why This Position Stands Out:

  • No corporate bureaucracy. Decisions actually happen.
  • Your background will be valued - not seen as a hurdle
  • Genuine influence on outcomes, not just a seat at the table

You're a Strong Match If You Are:

  • A current or former CFO seeking something substantive to dig into
  • Past the point of title-chasing but still want to remain sharp and involved
  • Experienced in government services, defense/security, or multi-site operations

Veterans and former law enforcement personnel are strongly invited to apply.

What We Need From You:

  • At least 10 years in a CFO or equivalent senior finance leadership capacity
  • A strategic mindset - not simply a spreadsheet focus
  • Ability to connect the dots between operations and finance
  • Willingness to challenge leadership when the situation calls for it
  • An MBA or CPA is a plus, but your demonstrated results carry more weight

Pay & Perks:

  • $250K – $275K base salary
  • Eligible for performance-based bonus
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) with employer matching
  • Executive PTO
